In Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams, the Indianapolis Colts were outplayed in every way possible with quarterback Scott Tolzien unable to get anything going on offense.

Apparently, Tolzien's performance was concerning enough for the Colts to make a change at quarterback in Week 2. Indianapolis will reportedly go with the recently acquired Jacoby Brissett as their starter against the Arizona Cardinals, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.

Against the Rams, Tolzien completed only nine of his 18 pass attempts for 128 yards and two interceptions without a connection in the end zone. Brissett, formerly of the New England Patriots, saw a bit of playing time in the blowout loss to Los Angeles with the Colts newcomer throwing for 51 yards on two out of three completed passes.

In Week 2, Brissett will be the leader under center for the Colts as they take on Carson Palmer and the Arizona Cardinals. Both teams will be looking for their first win after disappointing losses in their season openers.

Unlike the Rams, the Cardinals aren't known for their play on the defensive side of the football. Arizona has become a force offensively with Palmer leading the way, but the team suffered a major loss last week with star running back David Johnson going down with a wrist injury which will require surgery.

Although the Cardinals aren't the team they were two years ago with an MVP candidate in Palmer leading the way, Arizona will be expected to win this matchup against an Indianapolis squad struggling to get it together without Andrew Luck on the field.
