Las Vegas Raiders vs Colts match player stats

The Indianapolis Colts delivered one of their most complete performances of the 2025 season, routing the Las Vegas Raiders 40–6 on October 5 at Lucas Oil Stadium. The box score shows a game that stayed competitive early, then tilted hard after the first quarter. Las Vegas opened with a long 16-play drive capped by Daniel Carlson’s 24-yard field goal, but that early 3–0 lead was the Raiders’ only moment of control. Indianapolis answered with touchdowns on three straight second-quarter possessions and never looked back, erupting for 40 unanswered points between late Q2 and the entire third quarter. By the time the fourth quarter arrived, the result was decided and the Colts were simply managing the clock.

Daniel Jones steered the Colts’ offense with a calm, distributor-style outing: 20 completions on 29 attempts for 212 yards and two touchdown passes, keeping the chains moving and finishing drives. On the other side, Geno Smith produced 228 passing yards on 25-of-36 throws, but two interceptions short-circuited any comeback hopes. That turnover gap (Colts 0, Raiders 2) was a direct separator in a game where both teams were close in total yardage.

Jonathan Taylor was the swing piece. He carried 17 times for 66 yards, but the raw total understates his impact because three of those runs were touchdowns, all from short range. With the Colts living in the red zone (six trips, six scores), Taylor’s burst and vision turned possessions into points. Ameer Abdullah added a two-yard rushing touchdown in the third quarter to keep the avalanche going. The Raiders’ rushing highlight came from rookie Ashton Jeanty, who led his team with 67 yards on 14 carries; however, Las Vegas couldn’t sustain drives deep enough to translate that production into touchdowns.

In the receiving game, Tre Tucker topped Las Vegas with four catches for 62 yards, while Ashton Dulin paced Indianapolis with 55 yards on two grabs, showing the Colts didn’t need high-volume passing to hit explosives. Defensively, DeForest Buckner recorded a sack for Indy, and safety Jeremy Chinn posted a game-high 10 tackles, repeatedly cleaning up at the second level. Linebacker Austin Ajiake led the Raiders with nine tackles in a unit that spent too much time defending short fields.

Team totals underline Indianapolis’ edge in situational football: 317–296 in total yards, 24–22 in first downs, and an efficient 8-for-10 on third down. Las Vegas went 0-for-4 in the red zone and only 1-for-2 on fourth down, which explains how a modest yardage gap became a lopsided final. Even with slightly less possession time (26:35 to 33:25), the Colts were ruthless with field position and finishing ability, turning a tight start into a runaway win that kept them among the AFC’s early leaders.

Tips / interesting facts:

1. The Colts scored on all six red-zone trips, a perfect efficiency rate that broke the game open.
2. Las Vegas matched Indianapolis in yards per play at times, but two Geno Smith interceptions flipped field position.
3. Jonathan Taylor’s three rushing TDs came on just 66 yards — proof that red-zone usage matters as much as volume.
4. Indy’s 8-for-10 third-down day kept their offense on schedule and limited Raiders possessions.
5. Jeremey Chinn’s 10 tackles reflected how often the Raiders’ drives ended in the middle of the field.
