NFL experts predict winner of Colts vs. Commanders Week 4 game

Let's check in on who the experts have winning this Week 4 matchup between the Colts and Commanders.

The Indianapolis Colts are currently in London for their Week 4 game against the Washington Commanders. According to USA Today, the Commanders receive two votes as the favored team, while the Colts receive one vote. Adam Kaufman predicts a close Colts win, citing the challenge for Jonathan Taylor against Washington's run defense.

The Commanders have been more vulnerable through the air compared to last week, with Daniel Jones and Marcus Mariota as potential starters. Jayden Daniels is expected to practice this week, affecting the quarterback situation.

CBS Sports' Pete Prisco predicts a high-scoring 31-30 victory for the Colts, noting the improvement of both defenses and the scoring potential of the teams after their Week 3 win. NFL.com's experts favor the Colts with four of the five votes, with Jeremy Bergman believing the Commanders have a chance to give the Colts fits in London due to their strong run defense.

Washington has been careful with the ball on offense, committing only one giveaway all year, while the Colts defense has struggled with takeaways. ESPN's FPI model gives the Colts a 55% chance of winning, and Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio predicts a 24-20 Commanders victory.
