INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts host the Chicago Bears in an Interstate 65 battle. The Colts (0-2) are seeking their first win this season while the Bears (1-1) are hoping rookie quarterback Caleb Williams can finally be the team's answer under center. 

After a rough first two games, the Colts enter their second home game needing to address problems within their defensive secondary. Last week, the Colts struggled to contain the Green Bay Packers run offense. If they want to have a chance at beating the Bears, their defense will need to step up and make big plays to counter Caleb Williams. 

However, Indy will be without defensive end DeForest Buckner, after he was placed on injured reserve earlier this week. Buckner will be out for a minimum of four weeks after spraining his ankle during the team's loss to the Packers last weekend.

Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. at Lucas Oil Stadium. Keep it here all game long for live updates as they happen.
