Colts move to 3-0 as Daniel Jones leads new team to perfect start
Daniel Jones might be changing his name to Indiana Jones after the former Giants quarterback helped lead the Colts to a 41-20 win over the Titans to extend their perfect start to the season to 3-0.
Jones continued his stellar start to the season Sunday by completing 18 of his 25 pass attempts for 228 yards and a touchdown, without throwing a single interception.

The touchdown pass came in the third quarter when he found Michael Pittman Jr. in the middle of the field for the 20-yard scoring pass. He averaged 9.1 yards per throw in the Colts’ third straight win to start the season, marking their best start since 2009 when Peyton Manning was under center.
Sunday was the third straight game that Jones had thrown at least 220 yards.
He has yet to throw a single interception.
The wins this season for Jones are as many as the quarterback had in his last 16 starts during two seasons with the Giants.
The latest success for Jones probably won’t come as much of a surprise for another former Giant, Saquon Barkley, who had been singing Jones’ praises earlier in the week.

“Daniel Jones! Let’s go! That’s my dawg!” Barkley said, according to CBS Sports. “I gotta FaceTime him (more). He texts me and says I never answer my phone calls.”
“The fact that he’s off to a hot start… Seeing what he went through throughout camp, battling with AR [Richardson] over there, I was super excited for him to win that starting job,” Barkley added. “To go out there and play at a high level now and get to show people the player that I know, the person that I know.”
Jones, who was released by the Giants last fall after a rocky five-and-a-half seasons, signed a one-year deal with the Colts in free agency.
The Colts will look to continue their magic next week when they face the Rams.
