STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Downs' Week 3 spike (168 air yards) proved unsustainable; faces tough Steelers.

Downs' Week 3 air yards hallucination of 168 air yards met harsh reality in Week 4 against the pass-funnel Washington defense, where he had precisely one air yard on three targets; in Week 5 the Colts take on a Steelers defense allowing the eighth fewest total air yards per game and the third fewest offensive snaps, creating an ugly spot for Downs and the rest of the Colts' pass catchers.
