The las vegas raiders vs colts match player stats from October 5, 2025, tell the story of a one-sided NFL game in which the Indianapolis Colts defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 40-6. Indianapolis built its victory through efficient quarterback play, four rushing touchdowns, and a defense that intercepted Geno Smith twice. The Raiders, meanwhile, struggled to turn their offensive production into points despite recording 228 passing yards and 106 rushing yards.

The final score alone does not explain how the game unfolded. Indianapolis scored 20 points in the second quarter and another 20 in the third, creating a 40-3 lead before Las Vegas added a fourth-quarter field goal. Jonathan Taylor was the standout scorer with three rushing touchdowns, while Daniel Jones delivered two touchdown passes without throwing an interception, according to the supplied statistics.

This detailed breakdown examines the passing, rushing, receiving, and defensive numbers, highlights the players who influenced the result, and explains what the statistics reveal about each team’s performance. The analysis uses the supplied ESPN box-score data, with a few source inconsistencies identified where they affect interpretation.

Final score by quarter

Quarter	Raiders	Colts
First	3	0
Second	0	20
Third	0	20
Fourth	3	0
Total	6	40

The first quarter gave the Raiders an early three points, but the game changed dramatically in the next two periods. Indianapolis scored 40 unanswered points across the second and third quarters, according to the supplied scoring summary.

That scoring pattern is important. It indicates that the Colts did not simply edge ahead through a late surge. They controlled the central portion of the game and created a deficit that Las Vegas could not overcome.

The Raiders managed only two field goals across four quarters. Indianapolis scored through both its passing and rushing attacks, giving the offense several ways to punish the opposing defense.

For readers reviewing individual performances, the most important distinction is between accumulating yards and producing points. Las Vegas moved the ball at times, but Indianapolis was much more effective at converting possessions into scoring opportunities.

Key Player Statistics at a Glance

The following table highlights the principal offensive performances reported in the supplied data.

Player	Team	Key statistics
Daniel Jones	Colts	20/29, 212 passing yards, 2 TD, 0 INT
Jonathan Taylor	Colts	17 carries, 66 rushing yards, 3 rushing TD
Geno Smith	Raiders	25/36, 228 passing yards, 0 TD, 2 INT
Ashton Dulin	Colts	2 catches, 55 receiving yards
Josh Downs	Colts	6 catches, 54 receiving yards
Tre Tucker	Raiders	4 catches, 62 receiving yards
Ashton Jeanty	Raiders	14 carries, 67 rushing yards; 5 catches, 42 receiving yards
Tyler Warren	Colts	4 catches, 44 receiving yards, 1 TD
Michael Pittman Jr.	Colts	5 catches, 39 receiving yards, 1 TD

These numbers show why Indianapolis won comfortably. Jones protected the football and threw two touchdowns, while Taylor supplied the ground-game scoring. On the other side, Smith completed more passes and gained more passing yards than Jones, but his two interceptions and lack of passing touchdowns hurt the Raiders.

The receiving figures also reveal contributions from several players rather than a single dominant Colts receiver. Dulin produced the highest listed receiving total for Indianapolis, while Downs offered consistent short-to-intermediate production.

Quarterback Comparison: Daniel Jones vs Geno Smith

Quarterback play was one of the clearest differences between the teams. Both starters completed a high percentage of their passes, but Jones was more effective at protecting possessions and turning throws into touchdowns.

Daniel Jones passing stats

Statistic	Daniel Jones
Completions	20
Attempts	29
Completion percentage	69.0%
Passing yards	212
Yards per attempt	7.3
Passing touchdowns	2
Interceptions	0
Sacks taken	0
Passer rating	113.0
QBR, as supplied	80.6

Jones completed 20 of 29 passes, giving him a completion rate of approximately 69%. His 212 passing yards were slightly below Smith’s listed 228 gross passing yards, but Jones had two touchdown passes and no interceptions.

The difference was efficiency. Jones averaged 7.3 yards per attempt, compared with Smith’s listed 6.3. He also avoided sacks, which helped Indianapolis preserve its passing opportunities and prevented negative plays from pushing the offense backward.

Jones connected with Tyler Warren for a touchdown and found Michael Pittman Jr. for another score. Those completions contributed directly to Indianapolis building its lead during the second quarter.

His performance also complemented the running game. Because the Colts could score through the air and on the ground, the Raiders had to defend more than one type of threat. That balance made Indianapolis difficult to contain once its offense found rhythm.

Geno Smith passing stats

Statistic	Geno Smith
Completions	25
Attempts	36
Completion percentage	69.4%
Gross passing yards	228
Net passing yards	190
Gross yards per attempt	6.3
Passing touchdowns	0
Interceptions	2
Sacks taken	4
Yards lost to sacks	38
Passer rating, as supplied	63.2
QBR, as supplied	15.2

Smith completed 25 of 36 attempts, a completion rate of approximately 69.4%. He attempted seven more passes than Jones and recorded more gross passing yards. However, those totals did not translate into a competitive scoring performance.

The four sacks were especially costly. According to the supplied team figures, Smith lost 38 yards on sacks, reducing the Raiders’ net passing yardage to 190. That distinction matters because gross passing yards do not show the full cost of pressure.

The two interceptions were another major problem. Turnovers can erase the value of otherwise productive drives, particularly when an offense is already struggling to score touchdowns. Smith finished without a passing touchdown, leaving the Raiders reliant on field goals.

Why Jones had the more effective game

Three factors explain the difference between the quarterbacks:

Touchdown production: Jones threw two touchdown passes, while Smith threw none.
Ball security: Jones had zero interceptions, while Smith threw two.
Pressure management: Jones was not sacked in the supplied team statistics, while Smith took four sacks for a loss of 38 yards.

The Raiders actually had more total offensive plays, with 65 compared with Indianapolis’s 57. Yet the Colts gained more total yards, 317 to 296, and averaged 5.6 yards per play against Las Vegas’s 4.6.

This is a useful lesson when evaluating quarterback statistics: completions and passing yards are only part of the picture. Turnovers, sacks, yards per play, and scoring efficiency help explain why one team wins despite another quarterback posting a larger raw passing total.

Data note: The supplied player-level figures list 228 passing yards for Smith, while the official team figures distinguish 228 gross passing yards from 190 net passing yards after sacks. These are different measures, not necessarily conflicting totals.

Rushing Statistics: Jonathan Taylor Leads the Colts

Indianapolis made excellent use of its running backs, particularly Jonathan Taylor. The Colts recorded four rushing touchdowns, while Las Vegas did not score on the ground.

Colts rushing stats

Player	Carries	Yards	Average	TDs	Long
Jonathan Taylor	17	66	3.9	3	16
DJ Giddens	5	22	4.4	0	9
Ameer Abdullah	2	6	3.0	1	4
Daniel Jones	1	2	2.0	0	2
Team total	25	96	3.8	4	16

Jonathan Taylor’s three-touchdown performance

Taylor was Indianapolis’s most important rushing scorer. He gained 66 yards on 17 carries, averaging 3.9 yards per attempt, and scored three touchdowns.

His rushing total was not exceptionally large, but the touchdowns made his contribution decisive. Running backs are often judged by yardage alone, yet short-yardage execution can have a greater effect on a game’s outcome than a handful of extra yards between the 20-yard lines.

Taylor scored from three yards in the second quarter and added two more short rushing touchdowns in the third. Those scores helped the Colts extend their advantage and kept pressure on a Raiders defense that was already struggling to stop the offense.

His performance illustrates the difference between volume production and scoring value. A 66-yard rushing total might appear modest next to a 100-yard game, but three touchdowns in a 40-point win represent an enormous contribution.

Support from DJ Giddens and Ameer Abdullah

Giddens added 22 yards on five carries. Although he did not score, his 4.4-yard average helped Indianapolis maintain a productive running rotation.

Abdullah had only two recorded carries, but one resulted in a touchdown. That score added to the Colts’ third-quarter surge and showed how even a limited number of opportunities can matter in the red zone.

Jones also contributed two rushing yards on one attempt. His main impact came through passing, but a quarterback’s ability to move with the ball can influence how a defense approaches the offense.

Raiders rushing stats

Player	Carries	Yards	Average	TDs	Long
Ashton Jeanty	14	67	4.8	0	12
Raheem Mostert	7	22	3.1	0	5
Tre Tucker	1	9	9.0	0	9
Geno Smith	3	8	2.7	0	5
Team total	25	106	4.2	0	12

Ashton Jeanty’s contribution

Jeanty led the Raiders with 67 rushing yards on 14 carries, averaging 4.8 yards per attempt. He was productive enough to suggest that the running game was not completely ineffective.

The problem was that the Raiders could not turn those yards into touchdowns. Their entire rushing unit finished with 106 yards but no rushing scores.

That contrast is significant. Las Vegas actually gained 10 more rushing yards than Indianapolis, yet the Colts scored four times on the ground. The difference came from how the teams used their opportunities, particularly close to the goal line.

Mostert contributed 22 yards on seven carries, while Tucker gained nine yards on one attempt. Smith added eight rushing yards. None of the listed Raiders rushers crossed the goal line.

Comparing the running games

The two teams each recorded 25 rushing attempts, but Indianapolis used its ground attack more effectively in the areas that mattered most.

Rushing measure	Raiders	Colts
Attempts	25	25
Rushing yards	106	96
Yards per carry	4.2	3.8
Rushing touchdowns	0	4

The Raiders averaged more yards per carry and accumulated more rushing yards. Nevertheless, the Colts’ four rushing touchdowns created a substantial scoring advantage.

This is why rushing efficiency should be evaluated alongside down-and-distance situations and red-zone results. A team can gain more yards between the lines and still lose badly if it cannot finish drives.

Receiving Stats: Which Players Made the Biggest Impact?

The receiving statistics show that both teams spread the ball around. However, the Colts received touchdowns from two pass catchers, while no Raiders receiver scored.

Raiders receiving statistics

Player	Receptions	Targets	Yards	Average	TDs	Long
Tre Tucker	4	6	62	15.5	0	33
Ashton Jeanty	5	7	42	8.4	0	29
Albert Okwuegbunam Jr.	5	6	36	7.2	0	16
Jakobi Meyers	4	6	32	8.0	0	16
Jack Bech	3	5	27	9.0	0	11
Ian Thomas	3	3	20	6.7	0	10
Alex Bachman	1	1	9	9.0	0	9
Dont’e Thornton Jr.	0	2	0	0.0	0	0

Tre Tucker leads Las Vegas

Tucker led the Raiders in receiving yards with 62 on four catches. His 15.5 yards per reception was the highest average among the Raiders’ listed receivers with multiple catches.

His longest reception covered 33 yards, demonstrating the ability to create a meaningful gain on a single play. Those explosive completions can change field position quickly and offer a struggling offense a way to move beyond short, predictable gains.

However, Tucker did not score a touchdown. Neither did any of the other listed Raiders receivers. The offense managed 228 gross passing yards but failed to produce a passing touchdown, highlighting the difference between moving the ball and finishing a drive.

Ashton Jeanty adds value as a receiver

Jeanty contributed five catches for 42 yards in addition to his 67 rushing yards. Combining those figures gives him 109 yards from scrimmage in the supplied statistics.

That versatility is valuable because a running back who can catch passes gives the quarterback another option against pressure. Short passes can also help an offense maintain possession when deeper routes are difficult to develop.

Jeanty’s five receptions tied him with Okwuegbunam for the most catches among the listed Raiders players. Yet the Raiders’ overall lack of touchdown production limited the effect of those catches.

Albert Okwuegbunam Jr. and Jakobi Meyers

Okwuegbunam recorded five receptions for 36 yards, while Meyers finished with four catches for 32 yards. Both provided additional targets for Smith, helping distribute the workload across the offense.

The Raiders’ receiving numbers were not concentrated entirely in Tucker. Instead, several players made catches, but no one converted those opportunities into a touchdown.

That pattern suggests the main issue was not simply the absence of one productive receiver. The offense struggled to turn its collective output into points, and turnovers made the task more difficult.

Colts receiving statistics

Player	Receptions	Targets	Yards	Average	TDs	Long
Ashton Dulin	2	5	55	27.5	0	35
Josh Downs	6	8	54	9.0	0	12
Tyler Warren	4	4	44	11.0	1	19
Michael Pittman Jr.	5	6	39	7.8	1	16
Jonathan Taylor	3	4	20	6.7	0	8
Anthony Richardson Sr.	1	1	9	9.0	0	9

Ashton Dulin’s explosive receiving performance

Dulin led the Colts in receiving yards despite catching only two passes. His 55 yards came at an average of 27.5 yards per reception, with a long gain of 35 yards.

That production demonstrates the value of explosive plays. A receiver does not need a high catch total to influence a game if his receptions move the offense quickly downfield.

Dulin’s numbers also provided a useful contrast with the Raiders’ receiving leaders. Tucker had 62 yards on four catches, while Dulin gained 55 on two. Both supplied downfield production, but the Colts combined their passing gains with touchdowns from other players.

Josh Downs provides steady production

Downs caught six passes for 54 yards on eight targets. His 75% catch rate in the supplied data indicates that he was a reliable option for Jones.

His longest reception was 12 yards, suggesting that much of his listed production came through shorter gains rather than one major explosive play. These completions can help sustain drives by moving the chains and keeping the offense in manageable situations.

Downs did not score, but his contribution helped Indianapolis distribute the passing workload instead of relying solely on its touchdowns scorers.

Tyler Warren and Michael Pittman Jr. find the end zone

Warren caught four passes for 44 yards and a touchdown. Pittman caught five for 39 yards and also scored once.

Their touchdown receptions were especially important because they gave the Colts an alternative to the rushing attack. Indianapolis could attack the defense through Taylor on the ground or use Jones to find receivers in scoring territory.

Warren’s four catches on four targets were particularly efficient in the supplied figures. Pittman also turned his opportunities into a scoring contribution.

Together, their touchdowns helped Indianapolis establish its lead before Taylor’s rushing scores widened the gap.

Defensive Player Stats: How the Colts Disrupted Las Vegas

The defensive numbers offer one of the strongest explanations for the result. Indianapolis recorded two interceptions, four sacks, and eight passes defended in the supplied player and team figures. The Raiders recorded no interceptions and no sacks in their team totals.

The official team summary also shows that Las Vegas lost two turnovers through interceptions, while Indianapolis finished with none. That turnover difference gave the Colts a clear advantage in possession security.

Colts defensive leaders

Player	Total tackles	Sacks	Tackles for loss	Passes defended
Austin Ajiake	9	0	0	0
Nick Cross	8	0	1	1
Neville Gallimore	6	0	0	0
DeForest Buckner	6	1	1	0
Zaire Franklin	6	1	1	0
Samson Ebukam	5	1	1	0
Charvarius Ward	5	0	0	0
Mekhi Blackmon	5	0	0	1
Tyquan Lewis	2	1	1	0

The supplied individual defensive figures identify several contributors. Ajiake led the listed Colts defenders with nine tackles, while Cross added eight.

Buckner, Franklin, Ebukam, and Lewis were each credited with a sack. Those plays matter because sacks can push an offense into long-yardage situations, making it harder to convert a drive into a first down.

Mekhi Blackmon and Laiatu Latu create turnovers

Blackmon was credited with an interception return of 32 yards, while Latu was listed with another interception. The supplied team totals therefore identify two interceptions for Indianapolis.

These takeaways were a major difference between the teams. Smith’s interceptions stopped Raiders possessions, while Jones avoided throwing one. Even when an interception does not directly produce a touchdown, it ends an opponent’s drive and gives the defense a chance to return the ball to its offense.

The Colts’ pass defense also recorded eight passes defended at the team level in the supplied data. That figure suggests the secondary contributed beyond the interceptions by disrupting passing attempts.

Raiders defensive leaders

Player	Total tackles	Sacks	Tackles for loss	Passes defended
Jeremy Chinn	10	0	0	1
Isaiah Pola-Mao	5	0	0	0
Devin White	5	0	0	0
Elandon Roberts	5	0	0	0
Malcolm Koonce	4	0	0	0
Adam Butler	3	0	0	0
Maxx Crosby	3	0	1	1
Jonah Laulu	3	0	1	0

Chinn led the listed Raiders defenders with 10 tackles. His total indicates that he was frequently involved in stopping Colts plays, but individual tackle counts do not necessarily mean a defense controlled the game.

Crosby was credited with three tackles, one tackle for loss, one pass defended, and one quarterback hit. Laulu also recorded a tackle for loss and a quarterback hit in the supplied figures.

The larger issue was the Raiders’ inability to produce sacks or interceptions in the team totals. Indianapolis moved the ball at 5.6 yards per play and converted eight of 10 third downs, while Las Vegas converted eight of 14. The Colts’ offense was therefore more successful at keeping drives alive.

Why the defensive gap mattered

The Colts did not need their defense to score a touchdown to make a major impact. Pressure, interceptions, and pass breakups were enough to disrupt the Raiders’ offensive rhythm.

The Raiders’ defense, meanwhile, struggled to prevent the Colts from scoring during the second and third quarters. Six offensive touchdowns across the game created a large deficit and left Las Vegas with little margin for error.

The broader takeaway is that defensive performance cannot be judged by tackles alone. Tackles measure involvement, while sacks, turnovers, third-down stops, and red-zone defense help explain whether that involvement changes the result.

Team Statistics: Raiders vs Colts Compared

Individual performances explain part of the game, but team statistics show how the contest developed across all four quarters.

Team statistic	Raiders	Colts
Final score	6	40
Total net yards	296	317
Passing completions	25	21
Passing attempts	36	32
Net passing yards	190	221
Rushing attempts	25	25
Rushing yards	106	96
Yards per play	4.6	5.6
First downs	22	24
Third-down conversions	8/14	8/10
Fourth-down conversions	1/2	0/0
Interceptions thrown	2	0
Sacks allowed	4	0
Penalties	6	9
Penalty yards	65	77
Time of possession	33:25	26:35
Red-zone efficiency	0/4	6/6

These team totals are consistent with the supplied official game statistics, although a few player-level fields in the extracted data require caution.

1. Total yards did not tell the whole story

Indianapolis gained 317 total net yards, only 21 more than Las Vegas’s 296. A difference of 21 yards is relatively small compared with a 34-point margin of victory.

This is why total yardage should never be used as the only measure of offensive performance. Las Vegas moved the ball but failed to score a touchdown. Indianapolis converted its opportunities into points far more effectively.

2. Third-down efficiency favored Indianapolis

The Colts converted eight of 10 third-down attempts, an 80% success rate. The Raiders converted eight of 14, or approximately 57.1%.

Both teams recorded eight conversions, but Indianapolis needed four fewer attempts to reach that total. The difference helped the Colts sustain their drives without requiring as many plays.

Third-down efficiency is useful because it measures how often an offense can extend a possession when a drive is at risk of ending. The Colts were especially effective in this area.

3. Red-zone execution decided the contest

The supplied team statistics show that Indianapolis scored on all six of its red-zone opportunities, while Las Vegas scored on none of its four.

That contrast is one of the strongest statistical explanations for the final score. The Colts turned every listed red-zone trip into a touchdown, while the Raiders left every listed opportunity without a touchdown.

Red-zone performance is often more informative than overall yardage because it measures what happens near the opponent’s goal line. Gaining 30 yards between the 30-yard lines is useful, but converting a possession into seven points has a much greater impact on the scoreboard.

4. Turnovers and sacks hurt the Raiders

Las Vegas threw two interceptions and allowed four sacks. Indianapolis threw no interceptions and allowed no sacks in the official team summary.

The Raiders also lost 38 passing yards to sacks. Those negative plays made their passing attack less productive than its completion total might suggest.

The Colts, by comparison, maintained possession more safely and benefited from their defense’s takeaways. That combination helped create a decisive advantage even though Indianapolis had fewer total offensive plays.

Special Teams Statistics

Special teams did not account for most of the 34-point margin, but the numbers complete the picture of the game.

Kicking performance

Statistic	Daniel Carlson, Raiders	Spencer Shrader, Colts
Field goals made	2	0
Field goals attempted	3	0
Field-goal percentage	66.7%	Not applicable
Extra points made	0	2
Extra points attempted	0	2
Longest field goal	37 yards	Not applicable

Carlson supplied all six Raiders points with field goals. His first successful kick gave Las Vegas an early lead, and his second accounted for the team’s only points in the fourth quarter.

The Raiders also missed one field-goal attempt according to the supplied kicking statistics. Even though Carlson made two of three attempts, the lack of touchdowns meant that field goals were not enough to keep the contest competitive.

Shrader converted both listed extra-point attempts. The supplied ESPN extraction contains inconsistent kicker point totals, so the table focuses on the clearly identified attempts and makes.

Kick returns and punting

Special teams statistic	Raiders	Colts
Kickoff returns	4	3
Kickoff return yards	100	74
Average kickoff return	25.0	24.7
Punt returns	1	0
Punt return yards	8	0
Punts, official team summary	1	2
Gross punting yards	30	101

The supplied return data shows that the Raiders recorded more kickoff return yards, with Dylan Laube leading their return unit at 77 yards on three returns. Indianapolis received 74 kickoff return yards, with Ashton Dulin contributing 43.

However, the official team summary indicates that Las Vegas had one punt blocked. That detail matters because a blocked punt can abruptly change field position and disrupt an offense’s ability to reset after a stalled possession.

The Raiders’ punting entries are inconsistent in the supplied extraction, which lists one individual punt by Carlson but two team punts alongside an unusual average. The official team summary should be consulted for the exact punting breakdown before publishing a detailed special teams audit.

How the Game Unfolded: The Key Scoring Moments

The quarter-by-quarter breakdown explains how Indianapolis turned a relatively close opening period into a blowout.

First quarter: Las Vegas takes an early lead

The Raiders opened the scoring with a 24-yard field goal by Carlson. Indianapolis did not score in the opening quarter, leaving Las Vegas ahead 3-0.

At that point, the game remained within reach for both sides. The decisive stretch came next.

Second quarter: Indianapolis takes control

The Colts scored 20 points in the second quarter. Jones threw touchdown passes to Warren and Pittman, while Taylor added a rushing touchdown.

The variety of scoring plays was important. Indianapolis demonstrated that it could finish drives through both the passing game and the ground attack.

The Raiders, meanwhile, failed to add to their first-quarter total. The halftime score was 20-3 in favor of Indianapolis.

Third quarter: The lead becomes overwhelming

Indianapolis scored another 20 points in the third quarter. Taylor scored twice more on the ground, and Abdullah added a rushing touchdown.

That stretch produced the Colts’ 40-point total. With the lead established, the home team no longer needed to chase additional points in the final quarter.

Fourth quarter: Carlson adds the Raiders’ final points

Carlson made a 37-yard field goal to bring Las Vegas to six points. Indianapolis did not score in the fourth quarter, and the final result remained 40-6.

The scoring sequence reveals an important pattern: the Colts’ offense was most productive during the middle two quarters, while the Raiders managed only field goals at the beginning and end of the game.

What These Player Statistics Reveal About Both Teams

A useful game analysis should go beyond listing individual totals. The numbers also help identify the strengths and weaknesses exposed during the contest.

What Indianapolis did well

Balanced offensive production: Jones threw two touchdown passes, while Taylor recorded three rushing touchdowns. Abdullah added another rushing score. The Colts were not dependent on one scoring method.

Efficient passing: Jones completed approximately 69% of his attempts, averaged 7.3 yards per attempt, and avoided interceptions. He was productive without needing a high volume of passes.

Strong red-zone execution: The supplied team statistics credit Indianapolis with six touchdowns on six red-zone opportunities. That efficiency was a major factor in the result.

Defensive disruption: Two interceptions, four sacks, and eight passes defended in the supplied statistics demonstrate the impact of the Colts’ defense. These plays limited the Raiders’ ability to build sustained scoring drives.

What hurt Las Vegas

No touchdowns: The Raiders finished with only six points, all from field goals. Despite recording 296 total net yards, they did not convert their offense into a touchdown.

Turnover problems: Smith’s two interceptions ended possessions and gave Indianapolis additional opportunities to control the contest.

Pressure on the quarterback: Four sacks for 38 yards lost damaged the Raiders’ passing efficiency and created more difficult down-and-distance situations.

Poor red-zone results: The supplied team figures show zero touchdowns from four red-zone opportunities. That failure was particularly costly against an opponent that scored on every listed trip.

Why the final score was so uneven

The final margin was not simply the result of one quarterback throwing for more yards than the other. It came from several connected advantages.

Indianapolis protected the football, scored touchdowns through multiple players, converted third downs efficiently, and took advantage of its red-zone opportunities. Las Vegas gained more rushing yards and had more time of possession, but it did not score a touchdown.

The Colts’ ability to turn possessions into points was the defining difference.

Data Accuracy and Box-Score Interpretation

Sports statistics should be presented carefully, particularly when the original data has been extracted from a page where some entries may have shifted or lost their formatting.

Three distinctions are especially important when interpreting this game.

Gross versus net passing yards: Smith’s 228 gross passing yards are different from his 190 net passing yards after sacks. The team passing total uses net yards, while player passing tables commonly display gross passing yards.

Player-level versus team-level statistics: A team’s passing, rushing, or defensive total should not automatically be calculated by adding only the players shown in a shortened table. Some players or categories may be omitted from the extracted data.

Kicking and punting discrepancies: The supplied data contains unusual entries for kicker points and the Raiders’ punting totals. Those figures should be verified against the original gamebook before being used in a detailed historical database.

The final score, quarter-by-quarter result, major scoring plays, and principal quarterback statistics are supported by the supplied data and the available official game records. Ambiguous secondary entries should not be treated as certain without checking the original box score.

Conclusion

The las vegas raiders vs colts match player stats show how Indianapolis produced a commanding 40-6 victory through balanced offense, strong red-zone execution, and effective defensive pressure.

Daniel Jones delivered two touchdown passes without an interception, while Jonathan Taylor scored three rushing touchdowns. Ashton Dulin led the Colts’ listed receivers in yardage, and Indianapolis’s defense disrupted the Raiders with two interceptions and four sacks.

Las Vegas had some positive individual numbers. Geno Smith completed 25 passes for 228 gross yards, Ashton Jeanty gained 67 rushing yards, and Tre Tucker led the Raiders in receiving yards with 62. Yet those performances did not produce a touchdown.

The central lesson from this game is that yardage alone does not determine success. The Colts gained only 21 more net yards than the Raiders, but their ability to protect the ball, convert scoring opportunities, and finish drives created the 34-point difference.

For an accurate historical record, the box score should be read alongside the scoring summary and team statistics, with care taken to distinguish gross passing yards from net passing yards and to verify inconsistent secondary entries.
