Indy put up a strong fight last Monday night against the Ravens before coming up on the short end of a 31-25 score in OT. Carson Wentz was actually close to fabulous, hitting on 25 of 35 for 402 yards, with 2 TDs and NO INTs. On the season, Wentz is 113 of 173 (65.3%), with 7 TDs and just 1 INT. And now, he gets the dynamic T.Y. Hilton back. WATCH OUT!
