That leaves DEON JACKSON and practice squad player JAKE FUNK as the only healthy running backs for the Colts. Less

Andy Richardson: Thursday Night Recap

What percentage of NFL games in the last half century don't have any touchdowns? It's got to be a small number, and probably a lot of them were affected by crummy weather.
