JAC +4.5 (1UNIT): the wrong team is favored, Indy's D will lose the game for them.

Listen, no surprise Jags have Jones Drew running downhill. I also like David Gerads pocket presents right now, and I'm not convinced that Indy can slow down tht running game. The line should be Indy - 2.5.   Jags 30 Indy 27

The jags will run all over indy all day long! Im afraid its the end of the road for indy this season.

Early there was a tendency that the money came in on Indy which makes sense after their win against Tennessee. However, the spread is too wide and it'll be tight so if you can get Jax at +5 it's a sound bet.

In sport the CREAM ALWAYS RISES TO THE TOP.  Indy getting a lot of the walking wounded back this week including Addai and Collie.  Peyton is not Brett Favre he still has some magic left.  And with Addai back and either James or Rhodes in the back field with him Peyton can get back to the play action he has been missing for several weeks.  Opposing defences have been able to put a lot more pressure on him because of his lack of a running game.  Give Peyton back his play action and this team still has great weapons in Garcon, Wayne and now Collie back.  Jacksonvile may be playing from behind all game especially if Peyton starts lighting it up early.  I'm not a Colts or Pats fan but these two teams know how to win in the big games and there is none bigger than this game on Sunday.  Peyton will win this game just not sure he covers the number.

      Right now the Colts (back doored LW, dammit!) are in survival mode. While I can certainly make a case for the Jags winning the division, I seriously doubt, it will be this week. Some of the walking wounded return to action ,as the Colts avenge a week 4 loss at Jacksonville.

INDY   -  4.5

sure seems like the jags had lots of trouble with an oakland team that just isnt that good. were they looking towards this game or are they just not that good. things that make you say hmmm. gotta feeling jags will try to pound the running game at the colts with some success but i hate to go against the colts with everything to lose and a whole lot to gain. colts 27 - jaguars 19. besta luck.

MJD has not practiced this week yet with a sore right knee and is very questionable for Sunday.

Practice or not practice Peyton and his Colts win this game and cover the number.

Jacksonville defence ranked 28th against the pass

boy is Peyton gonna light it up.

Especially now like i said he has the play action back in place.  Dominic Rhodes, Joseph Addai or James in the backfield play action and light it up to Garcon, Wayne, Collie and anyone else he can find.  Peyton will not lose this game.

This is a line gut feeling that +5 Jags will lure you to the dark side. Everyone on the jags wagon. Colts with extra days rest to heal and plot. Raiders played the jags very physical. Indy for the large!

uhhhhhh for all of u Peyton-lovers, i sure hope u guys know that #1- he doesnt play defense and #2- he doesnt run the ball.

am i supposed to believe that Addai will be back to his old form this Sunday let alone play?  I think he's been missing since Week 4?

Meanwhile, Clint Session is day-to-day and that doesn't sound good for a defense that struggles against good running teams. Aside from Freeney, Mathis, & Brackett-their front 7 just isnt that tough.

I see a very close game and possible upset by the healthier / more balanced squad- JAGUARS.

Just wondering if the Jags are going to win the same as Chicago beat down the Pats last week. 

Maurice Jones Drew (knee) sat out Thursdays practice.
