Brees and Rivers have both been terrible this season. There is plenty of statistical documentation of this which you can Google on your own time.
Looking at this game, Rivers struggled to throw anything over 15 yards yesterday. The Colts won by maximizing time of possession, using the running game and short pass/screen attack. The Lions defense is bottom of the league and doesn't get many takeaways. Colts were able to sustain drives and monopolize time of possession. Winning formula.
