Betting on the Jacksonville Jaguars (4-5)
The Jaguars have activated Nick Foles from the injured reserve list last week, which means that the team’s expensive offseason acquisition will be back under center when they meet the Colts in Week 11. That also means the good times with Gardner Minshew will take a pause. The decision to start Foles again looks to be the right decision for the team following the 26-3 loss in London to the Houston Texans in Week 9 — prior to the team’s Week 10 bye — in which Minshew self-destructed with multiple errors and turnovers. Foles hasn’t played since injuring his clavicle in Week 1’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at home. Foles’ presence will give the Jaguars an experienced leader in the pocket who can manage the game better and take most of the attention away from running back Leonard Fournette, who always has a target on his back.
The Jaguars are 5-3 against the spread (ATS) in their last eight games overall.
Betting on the Indianapolis Colts (5-4)
The Colts were among the biggest losers in Week 10. How can they not be when they took a 16-12 home loss at the hands of the tanking Miami Dolphins? To be fair to the Colts, they didn’t have Jacoby Brissett under center, as the quarterback missed the game with an MCL issue. Instead, they relied on Brian Hoyer, who proceeded to throw three interceptions. The Colts have made it appear that there’s a chance for Brissett to return to action in Week 11, but that is something that’s still up in the air. For now, Hoyer is the probable starter, and if he does, the Colts might have to run the ball more than risk it in Hoyer’s hands. For one, the Jaguars don’t have an elite run defense, as they are allowing 120.2 rushing yards per game, which is just 22nd in the NFL. Led by Marlon Mack, who had 74 rushing yards against Miami, the Colts are 10th in the league with an average of 127.4 rushing yards per game.
The under is 2-0 in the Colts’ last two home games.
Writer’s Prediction
The Jaguars win, 23-21.
