Colts 34 Eagle 17 I'll start the Monday predictions

[tfunky14]

That's right, COLTS at home will win 34-17.

 

thanks, see you Monday night

[1yrdandacloudofdust]

Thanks for the jinx

[B~Town]

Depends in the ticky tacky calls if there favoring the Eagles we could be 0-2 .

[buccolts]

And a scoreless tie at halftime, correct?

Sound about right.

[21isSuperman]

I have Nick Foles in my fantasy lineup.  I'm hoping for a shootout

[BlueCollarColts]

I agree I think we win, I know losing Mathis sucks, but I feel we are still contenders in the AFC, Werner we need you to step up and be a pass rusher, and Walden needs to play well too, Newsome will get some reps too. 

[HtownColt]

Just win, can care less about the score

[akcolt]

We will win the game.

 

We have our score first offense. How much longer do we have to watch that guy try to game plan in the NFL....throwing darts.

Some how I managed to get both luck and foles for QB's lol, about mid season foles is going to be trading gold for me

The refs have had bad calls fore every team. I give them credit for at least being consistently bad. No favoritism has been seen... but their are doing the business of the man behind the curtain. A bad man who is working on his best Bud Selig impersonation by ruining a good thing. 

[Stephen]

45 to 17 colts

[BPM_Colt]

34-28 Colts

Really?

[colts_mp]

Eagles 34 Colts 24. Unlikely we will be able to pressure Foles.

[Stephen]

Eagles line isn't broncos line plus their d is as good as broncos no reason we shouldn't be able to dominate them I mean even the jaguar s had them before they choked

[supremecoltsfan300]

Eagles missing Evan Mathis is huge and if their back-up RT can't play either that's also big. When Mathis is in there and Lane Johnson is playing, it's the best o-line in football by far. Game will come down to foles. Kelly's system causes guys to be wide open. If Foles doesn't miss them, we'll likely lose. If foles is shaky like he was last game then we'll win. We will need to score at least 30 to win. Eagles defense is solid, especially in the run game, but TY will have an opportunity to get behind the eagles defense and burn them.

[Warhorse]

27-20 Horseshoe

[oldunclemark]

Lets wait until the injury reports are in..is Reggie OK?

....who starts at RB....

....Playing Denver and Philadelphia back to back is about as tough a contrast as you can have

[tfunky14]

Phily's D is not good....

[Manning1887]

We can't seem to generate a pass rush without blitzing. I imagine the Eagles will score more than 17. I expect a close game.

 

Colts 38  Eagles 34

[pgt_rob]

1 TD in the first half and 2 more TD's in the second half for the win.

[lollygagger8]

I have a feeling Shady is going to carve us up in the passing game.  

 

 

But, we don't lose back to back, and it's our home opener.....Colts 31-27

[Susie Q]

45 to 17 colts

I think you jinx the Colts with such high predictions.    If the Colts would play a full 60 minutes maybe but they can't play catch up and have that many points.     I think this will be closer than you think. ;)

With out Mathis I can't predict a final score.

[King Colt]

This is a  tough one to call and both did not show up for the first half of their openers. It will in Indy so that's in our favor but I think it will be a nail biter.

Phily's D is not good....

 

Their D is much better than many people think.  The secondary is suspect outside of Brandon Boykin (who is solid) so Luck & friends will absolutely get some nice yards there but the Run D was very good last year and was solid again in Week 1. 

 

I expect a high scoring shootout in this one and am not sure I understand the few predictions I've seen here with the Eagles scoring 17 or less.  I don't see that happening even if I take off my green shaded homer goggles.

 

Best of luck on Monday and whatever happens, I just hope both teams make it out healthy.

I have to agree, I expect a big time high scoring shoot out... Eagles have a pretty dynamic offense that can score big in bundles. Should be a good game.

contain mccoy and the rest should follow

That's just wrong. You basically just said you hope the Colts defense stinks.

[Archer]

Colts 24 - Eagles 14.   I think the Eagles' missing OL will be a key to the game.  Creative blitzes are a good bet to take advantage of back-up linemen and line configurations that haven't played together.  A really good QB can make you pay for such blitzes, but Foles is not very experienced.  His gimmicky offense was largely figured out by Jax last week, and he operated with a superior OL last year.  Running for his life is new to him, and I expect more turnovers like he had last week.  I like how well our Front-7 handled Denver's run last week (around 3 ypc, right?), without putting extra guys in the box.  I think the Xes and Os are aligning on this one...

[21isSuperman]

The defense can get a lot of turnovers from RB fumbles, but I wouldn't mind seeing the Colts win in a high scoring affair

[Fx Stryker]

Depends on which team we see.

 

We are too up and down to make a solid prediction.

[Bruiser]

That's right, COLTS at home will win 34-17.

 

thanks, see you Monday night

I think it will be a close game. I look for something like 34-31 Eagles.

[SilentHill]

We're at home, we'll be fine.

[Stephen]

Luck throws six tds

[206EaglesFan]

If there is one thing I'd be worried about as a Colts fan would be Chip taking advantage of the garbage coverage attributes of one Laron Landry (particuarly against the TE).  I think Ertz and/or Celek both put up solid numbers regardless of the outcome.

[Birds]

I agree 206EaglesFan. I still feel the Eagles wil be able to run the ball fairly well even with the injuries on the O-line. Also I think Chip will really stress getting the ball out quick when Foles does throw it given last week he held onto it way too long in the first half. Either way, I feel it's gonna be a shootout.  

 

Eagles 34- Cotls 30

[Ryan Pelley]

Colts win 4-3.

[GOCOLTS_ROLLTIDE]

Why in the world did we not give loucheiz a shot. ... put him on j Thomas

[JlynRN]

Colts - 34  Eagles - 21

 

Colts easily handle the eagles at home and get the 1st WIN of the season !!!

 

GOOOOOO Colts !!!!!!!!!!
