Both fresh from a bye week, the Indianapolis Colts (4-5) and Atlanta Falcons (6-3) are scheduled to square off at the Georgia Dome on November 22, Sunday for a Week 11 NFL 2015 season encounter.
The Colts pulled off an amazing 27-24 win over the Denver Broncos at the Lucas Oil Stadium on November 8 to hand Peyton Manning and his crew their second consecutive loss of the season, as reported by ESPN.
However, the victory came with a huge cost as starting signal caller Andrew Luck is sidelined again with an abdominal injury.
Meanwhile, the Falcons continue their downward spiral as they suffered a second straight defeat in the hands of lowly San Francisco 49ers at the Levi's Stadium also on November 8, as per SB Nation.
Backup quarterback Blaine Gabbert led the Niners to only their third win of the season while the Atlanta suffered their third loss overall in their last four games.
Matt Hasselbeck is set to fill-in for Luck once more and Chuck Pagano's boys are projected to win a close road game and add to the Falcons' woes this week.
Prediction: Colts win, 28-24.
