The Colts are the worst team in the league at defending the TE. If they want to put an extra DB deep and leave their LB’s in man-to-man coverage against Kelce and Watkins, it would be monumentally stupid not to take advantage of it.

That doesn't necessarily mean "ball control", it just means using more intermediate routes.
I agree with you. Kelce, Watkins, Conley, heck even Harris - push the center of the field over and over.

They stay in that Cover 2, the middle will be open all day! Eventually you will get somebody streaking long open or catch Hill with lots of room on a crossing pattern.
Colts can't stop us.
As for the Colts offense, just who have they beaten that is a top notch quality team? I'll give them the Cowboys at home. They had to come back down the 1st half to beat the Giants at home!
They split the Jags ( 1 & 1 ), won against the Bills, Titians ( 2 ) Dolphins, Raiders,Giants,Cowboys so I ask you these questions.
1).Who among the last 10 Colts opponents games had a Top 10 Offense to play the Colts so called Top 10 Defense?
2). Was the Colts Top 10 Defense Top 10 the first 6 weeks against the Bengals 34 pts home, Redskins 9 on the road W,Eagles 20 home L,Texans 37 home L, Patriots 38 road L and Jets 42 road L ( You kidding me 42, Jets ) ?
3). How many Top 10 Offenses has the Colts faced this season against their Top 10 Defense? Eagles and Pats' maybe the Bengals in the 1st week of the season.
Was the issue the offense or the defense in the 1st 6 weeks of the season of the Colt's 1 - 5 start? The Colts has score plenty of points this year to win games, only one game they did not ..... The 6-0 shut out to the Jags, their 12th game of the season! WHAT? Your offense should be in sync in week 12! Now I will give some leeway to the Jags tired of losing and attempting to coming back around. Only 6-0, oh BTW, it was vs Cody Kessler!
10 wins vs nobodies!
6 loses vs teams they should have been 2-4 in had they had a good team!
Bad losses
Bengals
Texans
Jets
Jags
They only get 1 win in these 5 games.
Good losses
Pats
Eagles
2. Only TWO tough teams that they had any business losing other than an occasional game you lose you should have won.
If the Colts were a good team they would have been 14-2, not 10 - 6 !
So now, somebody tell me why we should fear the Colts?
