Caden Curry made 7 tackles against the Jaguars on November 1, and that is the number that moved. His line read 7 touches and tackles, all of them tackles. The Indianapolis Colts lost at Jacksonville, but the box score has a clear high point in it, and it belongs to the linebacker wearing 55. His share of the team's playing time came to 5.7 percent. Nothing else in the line needs sorting. Seven tackles, one game, one season high.

Curry is a linebacker, number 55, and he is 23 years old. His page is at Caden Curry for anyone who wants the full record. He plays for the Colts, who entered this game with a record of 2-5. Through the 7 games before this one, his work had been modest and steady, the sort of line that rarely gets a mention. This one got a mention. The numbers below show how far it sat from what he had been doing.

Set against his own season, the night is a jump. Before this game he averaged 1.7 tackles over 7 games. His last-5 average, across 5 games, was 1.8 tackles. So the recent form and the season form told the same story, and Sunday's 7 did not match either. His average share of the team's playing time was 1.3 percent over the season and 1.5 percent across the last 5 games. He logged 5.7 percent against the Jaguars. The gap is not subtle.

The box score marks two season highs. His 7 touches and tackles are a season high; his previous best was 4, and his average before this game was 1.7. His share of the team's playing time, 5.7 percent, is also a season high. His previous best there was 2.9 percent. Both marks were set in the same game. The old ceiling on playing time share was 2.9 percent, and he nearly doubled it. The old ceiling on tackles was 4, and he cleared it by 3.

The game itself went badly for Indianapolis. The Colts lost 42-7 to the Jacksonville Jaguars, a margin of 35 points, on the road. Jacksonville moved to 4-2 on the season. Indianapolis fell to 2-5. The Colts scored 7 and the Jaguars scored 42, so the final is not close to a contest. Curry's season high arrived in a game the team lost by 35, and the box score offers nothing beyond that. It records the tackles, the share, and the score.

A few figures are left over. The data counts 8 games as the minimum for his usage numbers to carry full weight, and he sits one short of that mark, with 7 games before this one. Counting this game, he now has 8. Before Sunday, his highest single-game total was 4 tackles and his highest share of the team's playing time was 2.9 percent. Both were beaten in one afternoon at Jacksonville. For a linebacker averaging 1.7, that is a large night in a lost game.
