Both teams are looking for their second consecutive win and to continue working out of their early-season hole. Here's how <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/colts/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Horseshoe Huddle </a> sees it unfolding for the Colts in Week 7 at home against the Dolphins, with our roundtable of four analysts making it a clean sweep in favor of the hosts. Sean Ackerman ( <a href="https://x.com/shnackerman" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> @shnackerman </a> ): Anthony Richardson’s return game against the Dolphins should be a good one. While Jonathan Taylor is missing from the lineup, Richardson should be able to replace him as a threat in the rushing game. As long as the Colts’ defense is able to make tackles and bring down Miami’s weapons, it should be a successful day. Pick: Colts 31, Dolphins 17 <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Jake Arthur ( <a href="https://x.com/JakeArthurNFL" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> @JakeArthurNFL </a> ): All three of the Colts' victories this season have been by one score, but I think this is their first blowout win. Miami still has some awesome weapons on offense, which will give them some life, but there aren't many areas where they perform particularly well. They're dead last in the NFL in scoring at 12.0 points per game and are near the bottom of the league in red zone offense and defense. Offensively, they don't run or throw it well and struggle to move the sticks on third downs (and are even worse on fourth downs). Miami's defense isn't productive at getting to the quarterback or creating turnovers. Richardson won't be spotless but will continue to generate big plays for the offense. Pick: Colts 27, Dolphins 13 <a href="https://e170fb0b.sibforms.com/serve/MUIFAICNAu0H8wSN4H1m5FuyDATh3LO_F1R6XRr6nsHBsDGG1KKyS1VK4kZ44Hkho1EN_WlSSorc__eG0SxW_LKJi5dFyYrvAD1FcaYYZ54mSOv3YEFCFJqZvClMnzZ5t--EofLWL5qOopqOTSs7midxJiwg8MGa2VdrrzHGLx8O7tJvsGu6Ty-VHS_hnJv7i0KTdn9lyq11MJAy" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> What happens next for the Colts?

But with how the Colts have looked on their first drives recently, the young quarterback could get off to a hot start. Although Tua Tagovailoa is not playing, Tyreek Hill and Jaylon Waddle still pose a threat for the defense. Ultimately, Richardson will bring a dynamic nature back to the offense and the defense will hold their own for the Colts to get the victory. Pick: Colts 24, Dolphins 17 Drake Wally ( <a href="https://x.com/dwallsterdrake" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> @DWallsterDrake </a> ): Indy has a golden opportunity to get a home win against one of the worst offenses in the NFL. With Richardson returning, I think it helps Indy’s ground attack. Colts 23-16 to get to 4-3. Pick: Colts 23, Dolphins 16 <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate><hr><div style="position:relative;width:100%; height:0; padding-bottom: 56.25%;"><iframe allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox" scrolling="no" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/AzYAPPmFrew?feature=oembed" style="width:100%; height:100%;top:0; left:0; position:absolute"></iframe></div> Follow Horseshoe Huddle on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Horseshoe-Huddle-Indianapolis-Colts-Coverage-on-SI-104273281726901" rel="nofollow"> Facebook </a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/ColtsOn_SI" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> X </a> , and subscribe on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@horseshoehuddle" rel="nofollow"> YouTube </a> for multiple Colts live-stream podcasts per week.
