Even Reller of Horseshoe Heroes’ prediction: Colts win

"This feels like a win for the Colts. At home and the Lions don’t have their matchup trump card on offense anymore. Plus the last time these two teams met in 2012 the Colts pulled off a dramatic rally and that was a much worse team than the 2016 iteration."

Lions’ record: 0-1
