The Monday Night Football schedule is now into Week 6 after the New York Jets defeated the Atlanta Falcons in the last matchup and for the current game on October 14, the Indianapolis Colts are travelling to Qualcomm Stadium for Andrew Luck's MNF debut against the San Diego Chargers and the game will be televised and broadcast on TV on ESPN at 8:30 pm.
The San Diego Chargers have alternated losses and wins all season and they come into the game after losing to the Oakland Raiders on the road last week in a game that was pushed back into the evening due to the Oakland Athletics playing the previous night. The Chargers are 2-3 this season and looking up at the 6-0 Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos and the team will be looking to continue its streak of losses and wins against the Colts on Monday night football. The team has a break coming up after playing on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars next week, as they have a bye before heading to Washington to play the Redskins and then they have the first of two games against Denver.
Luck has been having another solid season and he has passed for over 1,100 yards with seven touchdowns, four of which have gone to Reggie Wayne and TY Hilton. Both players have put up good numbers in the offense this year and Hilton could be a big play option against the Chargers, who have given up plenty of yards through the air, averaging over 300 yards in the air per game. The Colts are averaging over 200 yards passing per game and Luck could air things out on Monday night against Philip Rivers, who has a number of receivers stepping up for injuries, including Eddie Royal and Keenan Allen.
