Looks like we won’t be the only team banged up. Not only did the lose Lonnie Johnson but Reid might be done for the season. Watson also has a sprained ankle.

Chloe, shhhhhhhhhhh.... @2006Coltsbestever is working on his excuses should we lose, and how to maximize the credit he gets should we win.... 

 

Sorry, just had too (what you said earlier about not making an excuse in advance). Seriously just kidding.

Who needs a random doctor on the internet? We have oodles of them on here. 

 

We have had TY back this week to being out for the season, and everything in between.

 

It's just marvellous.

 

I'm going to write a proposal to NHS England that I can solve the workforce crisis but sub-contracting the gig out on here.

This is a tough call for me.  I'll wait a couple days before picking, because the injuries play a big factor.  Losing Mack really hurts.  If Hilton doesn't play, that is huge.  Short week on the road is not good.  These teams are familiar with each other and this game is big.  

I think if I had to bet my house on the game, at this point I'd be picking the Texans.

Any real estate agents out there that can help Myles find a place to live after Thursday’s game?

Hopefully I switch that up and take the Colts later this week.

Historically, the home teams have done very well on Thursday nights.   Not quite the case this season.  A couple weeks ago Houston roughed up the Jags (26-3) in JAX.

All picks are “subject to change” up until kickoff.

That game was in London. Texans only one by one point in Houston because the jags went for a two point conversion instead of the extra point to tie. Apparently there was controversy and jags actually got the two point conversion.

I forgot about it being in London.   Not quite a home game for the Jags (they've been getting screwed on the London crap).    But Houston did whollup them in that game.  26-3.   Doesn't really mean anything for our Thursday game though.  It'll be a tough game for certain.

That wasn't a Thursday night game.

Thursday night football is crazy in favour of the home team historically.  I am worried about this game for that reason.  If this is a Sunday game there is no issue, Colts win.

I thought I seen somewhere that the home teams are 48-26 in the last 5 years.   Something like that.   Too lazy to find the link.  :jump:

    • Can you expend on this, why do you think that?
    • No, but I would love that! Is that true? Where did you hear that? I don't think that will happen. I heard that trading Herbert would result in a huge dead cap hit for the Chargers, that would make it nearly impossible to keep or sign other players.
