VIDEO: Colts Fail Miserably Trying to Tackle Chargers RB Austin Ekeler on Huge TD Run
By Michael Luciano
Well, this is going to earn several Indianapolis Colts defenders a rough Monday afternoon in the film room. Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler proved that he could more than fill in for Melvin Gordon as he pinballed his way to a 55-yard touchdown catch while shaking multiple Colts defenders off his back. Ekeler's score made it a 24-9 game in favor of LA.

Matt Eberflus oversaw quite the improved defense last year in Indianapolis, but some horrible tackling like that looks more at home in the Big 12 than on an NFL Sunday.
