Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is continuing to show why he should be getting the majority of the carries.
While Indianapolis was up 17-3 about halfway through the 3rd quarter, Taylor took a handoff from the 12-yard line and and scampered 83 yards before he was brought down.
It included a nasty stiff arm which really got him going.

Taylor has been electric the last 3 weeks for the Colts as this is the 3rd straight game that he’s had 100+ total yards. Last Monday against the Baltimore Ravens, Taylor finished with 116 yards receiving and 53 yards rushing with 2 combined touchdowns.
On Oct. 3 against Miami, he had 103 yards rushing, plus 11 yards receiving. Taylor currently has 145 yards rushing with 2 touchdowns against the Texans and there’s still half a quarter left to be played.
Indianapolis is on pace to get to 2-4 on the season after its collapse on Monday against Baltimore. Taylor will be the main reason for that.
