Miami Dolphins vs. Indianapolis Colts Live Stream: Watch Free Online NFL Streaming Game at 1:00 PM

The Miami Dolphins and the Indianapolis Colts are playing on Sunday in an entertaining matchup of two 1-0 teams after Andrew Luck led his team to a comeback and Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill leading his team to a win against the Cleveland Browns last week.

In other NFL and fantasy news, Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles is being looked at as a number one running back and prime player in fantasy football this season, which is why it is likely welcome news for owners that head coach Andy Reid said that it was probable that he would play in Week against the Dallas Cowboys and now it appears to be a certainty.

Charles said that he was ready to play despite being banged up last week and that is a welcome sign for fantasy owners wondering whether he was healthy or not. Charles is one of the most productive backs in the NFL and the team rolled over the Jaguars in Week 1 despite Charles dealing with a bruised quad, winning the game 28-2 and now they will have a tougher test with the Dallas Cowboys coming into Arrowhead and Andy Reid will be using Charles heavily on Sunday.

According to ESPN.com, Reid previously said to reporters on Wednesday that despite the Pro Bowl running back not participating in practice, that didn't mean he won't play on Sunday at Arrowhead. Charles dealt with an injury in the preseason and then on Sunday against the Jaguars in the opening win he suffered a thigh injury after being stepped on by another player while on the field and it took him out the game. The Chiefs won easily 28-2, but the loss of Charles would be immense.

Two years ago Charles missed the entire season with a knee injury and then came back last year with a huge season and he was one of the top ranked fantasy players in all of football. Charles had a solid game to start the season after gaining 77 yards on the ground and making three receptions for 23 yards and nay fantasy owners that are worried about Charles should grab wither Cyrus Gray and Knile Davis as free agent sleeper options. Charles had a knee sprain in the preseason and while that hasn't flared up yet this season but it is something for fantasy owners to be aware of. Charles gained over 1,700 combined yards last season and with Reid at the hemp, is expected to be a huge part of the passing game as well.

Reid said that Charles was the only injury concern for the team and that the bulk of the roster got through the Week 1 victory over the Jaguars relatively healthy. The defense already looks much improved from last season and number one overall draft pick Eric Fisher did not make any major mistakes in his debut, while Alex Smith did what he needed in his first game as the Chiefs quarterback.

The team already ranks first in the league in passing yards allowed per game, but that is more about the opponent they played in Week 1. The team will be strong rushing the ball if Charles is healthy and it remains to be seen whether Alex Smith will be a big play quarterback for the Chiefs. The Chiefs play the Cowboys in Week 2 before heading to play Reid's former team in the Eagles and then he will continue the NFC East tour with the Giants in Week 4 at Arrowhead. The team then plays the Titans and the Raiders before a big game with Houston and then they will play Cleveland and Buffalo before their Week 10 bye.
