If you’re in the green, you’ll get Colts vs. Raiders on TV

The Indianapolis Colts (8-7) are set to play host to the Las Vegas Raiders (7-8) on Sunday for a Week 17 matchup at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Getting the call for the CBS crew this week will be Andrew Catalon (play-by-play), Tiki Barber (color commentary), Matt Ryan (color commentary) and AJ Ross (sideline).

Despite coming off a loss on the road, the Colts currently hold the No. 7 seed in the AFC playoff picture, leading a quartet of 8-7 teams.

The Raiders have been one of the more interesting teams since firing former head coach Josh McDaniels. In the interim under Antonio Pierce, it’s clear the defense applies a physical brand of football that few teams have been able to match.

The Colts will have an advantage against a Raiders offense that is streaky. However, the Raiders defense should be able to keep this game close being led by the star pass rusher Maxx Crosby.

It seems the Colts will be near full strength, all things considered. Wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is trending to clear the concussion protocol entering Friday, but as we saw last week, it’s not official until the game starts and he’s on the field.

It also appears the Colts will see the return of right tackle Braden Smith, barring a setback during Friday’s practice. He has played just three snaps over the last four games and has dealt with injuries throughout the entire season.

The Raiders always seem to match up well with the Colts so this should be an interesting battle at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday.
