I'm not even sure if Fournette is going to play this game .

I have been reading he may not but if he does he isn't 100%

Feels sort of like that time we played Minnesota a couple years ago when AP was there coming off that knee injury.  If Fournette does play hopefully he's hindered.

I feel better about this game than the Titans game but watch Bortles put it on us  I shouldn't jinx this stuff.

The worry comes from the fact that we have the Goods to win the game, but we always assasinate our own selves from getting it done.

Unfortunately, Pagano's been clapping since he's gotten here.

 

 

I just don't remember him clapping for players dropping passes and fumbling footballs. Not that there is anything "good" a coach can do on the sidelines when this happens. But as a fan ,I think your reaction (mine too) is normal. That being "yeah clap , you blah blah."

Prediction:

 

Colts will make Bortles look amazing 

Fournette will have 147 yards rushing 

Their defense will score on a pick 6 

TY will vanish. Again. 

There will be no play action, QB rollouts, or designed QB runs (or throws on the run) 

 

Jags 31 - Colts 20

 

Oh, and Chuck will clap the entire time. 

 

i concur

Why are you even here if you have such a poor opinion of all aspects of our team ? Not trying to be a smart butt, just wondering how anyone could back a team that they seem to hold in such disrepute???

Bortles does tend to play decent against the Colts. Believe I saw a stat earlier that shown he hasn't even thrown an interception against us. Go figure 

[NagelHausForge]

Me thinks this game is going to be an epic goat rope... of massive proportions.

Just because the team sucks doesn't mean we don't love them.  I root for them every week obviously, but it really is what it is.  No way to sugar coat it, it's a bad team and realistically the way they've been playing doesn't really make people feel confident in going to Jacksonville and pulling out the win.  There's a strong chance literally everything lollygagger said will happen tomorrow, unfortunately.......

 

On a side note it would be great if the team just got sick and tired of their 2nd half fails and really did stick it to the Jags.

[BlueShoe]

I will be surprised if we are even in this game by the 4th quarter. I will not be very optimistic about our chances against any team, until we can play competitive football in the third quarter. 

 

Pagano and the entire staff needs to be turned over. 

 

I am hoping for a victory, but will continue to focus on evaluating the players for the future. 

 

Barring Luck coming back and leading us on a magical run, this season is competitively over.

Jags favored by 3.5. Mack will get more carries this week because of the injury last week. Hs average is 4.8/carry while the league average is 4.1. Gore is 3.7 to date. Simon has not practiced so he is ?? How many quarters will the Colts play this week?

I bet they use josh ferguson more the mack

[coltsfeva]

   This game could go either way, another 2nd half meltdown or a game in which we see the Colts finally put together 60 mins of good football. 

 

Being an an eternal optimist, I’m hoping for the latter:

Colts 31

Jags 20

Report:  Leonard Fournette unlikely to play.

This is a very winnable game and with it being a Division game, it's huge. I don't wish injury on anyone but this helps. I am sure they aren't crying that Luck is still out.

[richard pallo]

Colts 24-13

[sfergson727]

Jax 230, mini Colts 2

(sorry, every time I see a thread like this, I go into SNL superfan mode)

 

[King Colt]

I wonder if Jacksonville will risk Fornette against the Colts if he is not 100%. I would not. Bortles is Bortles and the Colts are slowly getting a little better. If there is a better example of "defense wins games" it would have to back a long way.

He's out..Colts will win!!  Why?

 

Like Nick Fury said.."Because we'll need them to."

[Peterk2011]

It's official, Fournette's been ruled out.

 

A bit funny that for a long time these Jags games used to be trap games for the Colts. Now, it's a trap game for THEM.

No such thing as trap game within your division

You're right, there isn't ... usually. But if a team owns it's division for a long time and has lopsided records vs all of it's rivals, then it kinda is. (Like the Jets game for the Patriots.)

[oldunclemark]

  But Jacksonville doesnt have a game next week...They cant be looking ahead

[krunk]

Lets see if we can capitalize on the opportunity. When I saw Fournette go down against the Rams I knew chances would be good he wouldn't play against the Colts

They probably feel like they have enough talent to win the game without him. That and the fact we will likely make enough mistakes to assist them.

  WHY? Maybe like me, we are FB Fans, and have been a Colts fan for all the 33 years they have been here.
  Even through all the s----- football i have witnessed. You still try to find players to be proud of, and hopefully to be

  glad we have a good offense or defense.
    Personally, i got a laugh out of his honest assessment of the state of things.  Laughing, in the face of adversity, or perhaps the absurd. go colts

 

[IndyScribe]

Why is Wilson not starting? He's been a healthy scratch for the past few weeks.

The separation in the division starts this week. I predict the Colts fall at home  not because they are deficient in talent but because they are behind the eight ball when it comes to coaching.

 

On on a separate note...the Jags may finally be coming into their own.  I suspect some will be surprised by their margin of victory in this one. 

The Colts don’t fool me.

Well so much for these post

Are you serious? 

 

It's because I want them to do better! Everyone knows what the problems are (except maybe Irsay and Pagano) and wants them fixed. Everyone is just tired of them not getting fixed.
