Colts are the 6th seed somehow. Have to win these next to AFCS games before the schedule gets tough.

Yep. If they want to make playoffs they need to win these two games. Then in that tough stretch need to go at least 2-3. Then the last part is easier. It would make it easier if they could beat dolphins too. Hopefully Buck will be back once the hard part of the schedule starts.

Especially after they just paid the QB $275m, and have a supposedly QB friendly HC, and that QB is underperforming for no obvious reason. If they start 0-5, and lose to the Colts in Jacksonville for the first time in ten years, I think it gets ugly.

 

The rumor that's being spread around is that Belichick will be their next HC, with roster control. 

I heard the radio talking about this and saying the London games are very important to their owner so if they go in there winless and lose there is a good chance they fire their coach after that game.

I can see a combination of Belichick as HC and Vrabel as DC and Josh McDaniels as OC there. :) 

 

Will be interesting to watch.

Yeah, logistically it probably doesn't make sense to fire your HC right before you take the team overseas for two weeks. They play the Bears, then the Patriots, both in London.

I don't think the Colts will announce AR's status for the game until the day of the game. Even if they know what they are going to do today, they will keep it ambivalent until the end. It's competitive advantage for the Colts for the Jags to not know who we are going to play, because the two QBs are so different in the way they play.

Yeah if he practiced in full it will be a good indication he will play. But for gamesmanship I bet they will give him a questionable tag no matter what.

Okay, this time I believe we beat the Jags. 

Their QB, which has a future in shampoo commercials and more, has found many ways to beat our Colts.

I predict that our defense will stop their potential winning drive in the last seconds of the game:rock:...I hope.

30-13 Colts

Colts are starting to gain confidence and Jax is starting desperate but pretty banged up ( I don’t think Josh Allen is playing).

  And even though the Colts are missing some key players, they have better depth (thank you Chris Ballard)!

What I need to do is stop watching. I have a superstition, bear with me, transcends sports.

 

Chiefs' Eagles SB, I was so tense because I was rooting for Mahomes, so I stopped watching at half time when the Eagles were leading 24-14, the rest is history. 2022 AFCCG, Sneed goes down within the first few plays, their star CB vs the Bengals with Burrow boasting a 3-0 record vs Mahomes. It did not bode well for the Chiefs, so I stopped watching. Learned they won by a FG.

 

Chiefs' 49ers SB, I stopped watching when the 49ers went up 10-0, once I knew the result, I watched highlights.

 

I love Novak Djokovic, he was down a break and a set versus Carlos Alcaraz in Cincinnati. I stopped watching, he came back, won that set in a tie break and then won the whole match. 2018 Wimbledon semis vs Nadal, he goes down 1 sets to 2, I stopped watching, Djokovic comes back and wins.

 

Bengals game versus the Chiefs this year, the Bengals were ahead before that defensive TD happened, Burrow had just thrown a TD on 4th down. Stopped watching. Chiefs win by 1. 

 

Yesterday, Flacco barely gets out of the pocket to avoid intentional grounding, Steelers were down 10-17, they were making a comeback. I stopped watching. The Colts won. If I have a favorite in the game, I have to stop cheering for them at some point and stop watching, that is my superstition. 

 

I know what I need to do for the Jaguars game, let us hope it works. :) 

Have you been watching every opening game for the past 10 years?  Stop it!

If we line up team that looks like the 2nd half of a preseason game, it's doubtful we will win.

Unfortunately, the Colts have been giving me too much hope that I end up watching 60 minutes. The Matt Ryan season, I was a glutton for punishment, to see how badly we would lose. :) 

 

When Peyton was QB, I would be so tense that if my wife would sit right next to me, she would end up being elbowed with me getting animated and she would make sure to leave a gap to sit on the other side of the sofa. With Andrew Luck, I was watching with low expectations the first season, expecting to lose more often than win, and every single time, I was surprised and needless to say, happy.

 

It is just me man, I just can't enjoy things, good or bad when the Colts play but I have to learnt to not blame folks because like my job, they are doing their job and no one works at 100% peak efficiency all the time.

 

I need to work on myself. I just need to R-E-L-A-X, LOL 😄

If we can't beat the Jaguars now when they are reeling, it will never happen in another 10 years, IMO.

We have a lot of injuries. Jags have a really good run game with two good running backs. One that can test the edges.  Don’t be so sure.  Rick Venturi on the colts podcast yesterday had a really good breakdown.

I would play Flacco this week and let AR and Taylor rest and get completely 100%. Hopefully between Goodson and Sermon we can run it well and Flacco just picks their secondary apart. Jags are pretty bad right now, if there is any week we end the losing streak there, it should be now. We should be able to get pressure on Lawrence as well and force a couple of Turnovers.
