The Indianapolis Colts are looking to get back in the win column in Week 5 after they suffered their first loss of the season in Week 4 vs. the Los Angeles Rams. The team did not look prepared enough for that matchup and found themselves making multiple mistakes that the Rams did not force, but rather self-inflicted by the Colts.
The Colts have already made some significant changes to start the week, with Xavien Howard retiring and the team electing to sign LB Buddy Johnson off the Dallas Cowboys' practice squad. Next up on the schedule, the Colts are set to host the Las Vegas Raiders as they look to improve to 4-1 on the year. These teams have played quite a bit in recent years, with seven games in the last ten.

The Colts and Raiders will be shown on FOX this week at 1 pm Eastern Standard Time, one of five games on the network. The game is marked on the map above, as it will be shown in all the places shaded in blue. This includes most of Indiana, Nevada, and California, as well as parts of Oregon, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, and Kentucky.
The Colts are on Fox for the second time during the first five weeks this season already, which fans probably aren't used to. Almost all Colts games in recent years have typically been shown on CBS, which allows fans to hear from different commentator crews than usual. This week, the game has been assigned the broadcast duo of Chris Myers and former NFL QB Mark Sanchez. Shockingly, the Colts and Raiders were passed up for the Cowboys and Jets game to get the network's top game of the week honors, with Jason Benetti and Greg Olsen assigned that game for the majority of the country to see.
