COLTS ARRIVE FOR LAMBEAU SHOWDOWN
- Green Bay will look to end a two-game Lambeau Field losing streak Sunday against its first AFC opponent of the season - the Indianapolis Colts.
- Last weekend, the Packers got back on the winning track with a 27-17 victory over the Seattle Seahawks to improve to 3-3 and create a three-way tie atop the NFC North.
- Green Bay would like to keep the momentum going, and get a much-needed home win, before it heads into the bye week. Three of its four games following the bye are away from home.
- Despite losing two consecutive games at Lambeau, the Packers have won 10 of their last 13 at the stadium. The Packers have only dropped three consecutive games at Lambeau Field once under McCarthy - his first three home games as Head Coach.
- Standing in their way will be Peyton Manning and the Colts, who make their first appearance at Lambeau Field since 2000.
- The Packers and Baltimore Colts met twice a year from 1953-66, including the 1965 Western Conference Championship, but the two franchises have met just five times in the last 20 seasons.
- The all-time series has exhibited great parity and stands tied at 20-20-1. Green Bay owns a 6-3 advantage in games played at Lambeau Field.
- After the Colts dropped to 1-2 entering their Week 4 bye, they have since responded with two victories. Last Sunday, they defeated the Baltimore Colts 31-3 behind three Manning TD passes - two to Marvin Harrison and one to Reggie Wayne.
