Tate is experiencing that firsthand, going from a breakout nine-catch, 145-yard game in Week 4 to a one-catch showing this past weekend. If the every-other-week trend continues, Tate is due for a good game on Sunday... The Colts' pass defense has been poor this season, coughing up the third-most yards per reception in football (12.8).

STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Tate's every-other-week pattern and Colts' weak pass defense set up a breakout spot.

Tate has alternated between breakout (nine catches, 145 yards in Week 4) and quiet (one catch in Week 5) performances; if the every-other-week trend continues, he is due for a strong game in Week 6 against Indianapolis. The Colts' pass defense ranks third-worst in yards per reception (12.8) and deploy Cover 1 nearly 20% of the time (top-10 rate). Against Cover 1 this season, Tate has been targeted on 34.2% of his routes, the fourth-highest rate among all wide receivers. Indianapolis also has the fourth-lowest pressure rate in the NFL, potentially allowing Cam Ward to sustain drives.
