Indianapolis: Colts and Titans Clash in Week 3 NFL Matchup
The Indianapolis Colts and Tennessee Titans are set to face off on Sunday, September 21, 2025, at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. The game, scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. Eastern Time, marks the first divisional encounter for both teams this season.
Key Facts and Betting Odds
- The Colts enter the game with a perfect 2-0 record and are aiming for their first 3-0 start since 2009.

Team Performance and Player Highlights
The Colts have shown strong starts to the season, with quarterback Daniel Jones leading the offense effectively, highlighted by a notable 272 passing yards in Week 1 against the Miami Dolphins. Indianapolis’s offensive line is performing well, ranking fourth in the NFL with a sack rate of just 3.1 percent, providing Jones with solid protection.
Defensively, the Colts are focused on limiting the Titans’ passing attack, especially since Tennessee’s offensive line has been hampered by injuries, potentially impacting the game’s outcome. Indianapolis’s defense will also look to contain the Titans’ young quarterback, Cam Ward, who is still adjusting to the NFL and has struggled in the first two games.
In terms of key players, the Colts feature running back Jonathan Taylor and tight end Tyler Warren, a first-round pick who caught seven passes in Week 1. Additionally, the team has reintroduced cornerback Charvarius Ward, who is expected to return from injury and make an immediate impact.
Historical Context and Predictions
Last season, the Colts swept the series against Tennessee, winning both games across different starting quarterbacks. This history could influence the current matchup, though the Titans are motivated after a tough start and the addition of new talent like rookie quarterback Cam Ward—despite his early struggles—adds a promising element for the team’s future.
According to predictive models, there is a 45% chance the Colts will win the game, compared to a 55% probability for the Titans. The game’s outcome could hinge on offensive line performance and defensive stops, making it a closely contested divisional matchup.
Ticket and Viewing Options
- Tickets are priced from $51 for lower-demand seating to $988 for premium sections.
- For viewers, the game will be available through multiple streaming options, including CBS, NFL+, Paramount+, and Fubo.
Conclusion
As the Colts seek to extend their winning streak and achieve their first 3-0 start in over a decade, they will face a Titans team eager to bounce back from recent setbacks. Both teams will look to capitalize on their strengths, with Indianapolis aiming to strengthen its early-season momentum, and Tennessee aiming to get its first win of the season in front of their home crowd.
