The Indianapolis Colts and St. Louis Rams face each other for a week 3 NFL 2015 Preseason game on Saturday at the latter's Edward Jones Dome.
Andrew Luck and the Colts have struggled in the preseason so far, going 0-2 after big losses to the Philadelphia Eagles and Chicago Bears in their first two weeks of action. Their last game against the Bears ended in a 23-11 loss as Chicago's reserves outplayed Indianapolis'.
Luck again only played limited minutes, going 5-for-9 with his passes for 71 yards as head coach Chuck Pagano seems to be preserving his starters for the regular season next month.
The Rams are also 0-2 this preseason after huge defeats against the Oakland Raiders and Tennessee Titans. St. Louis fell to the Titans, 27-14, in their most recent game even as Tennessee's rookie quarterback struggled the whole game.
Ram's starting signal caller Nick Foles also had a rough game going only 3-for7 and 18 yards on passes and is not expected to be utilized heavily in this match against the Colts.
Prediction: Colts win, 21-14
