Don't care which one - someone just needs to step up.

i could see big Mo Cox having a good day. Granson will probably make a few plays and drop some passes.

We don't have any. MAC and then...nada. Maybe all they do is block or something.

Too many injuries and coaching issues to overcome. My head tells me 23-20 Jags. My heart says Jags implode with horrendous mental mistakes, sloppy play, and ball security issues leading to a Colts victory 30-9.

If we lose this game I don't see our chances of making the playoffs as better than an 0-2 team, about 11%

oh the days of Jack Del Rio coaching. you could always rely on his teams doing something stupid to help us win

The Colts will win on a late field goal by their new kicker, whoever that is.

We get off to one of our all too familiar slow starts as the Jagoffs stack the box again making it tough running for JT, and without Pittman we won't be able to make them pay for it. After being down 17-3 at the half, we claw back a bit in the 2nd with a nice 2nd half for Ryan, Dulin, Strachan, and Hines, but fall up short 24-17 :cool:

A loss today and things get really interesting.

To get handed the gift of your first 2 games against the 2 worst teams in your division and to come out of it without a win, with the Chiefs and a more than likely desperate Titans team coming up, will piss Jimmy off to no end.

At that point, 0-3-1 becomes very possible.

Fwiw, I think they lose today. I’d have more confidence if Pittman were playing but losing him is to much to overcome. And that is entirely on Ballard. There is NO reason that a veteran wide receiver wasn’t signed.

Like if he would have done that and the player still sucked, that's one thing. But this team desperately needs a TY Hilton type on the team, and he's done nothing about it.

Understatement of the season to this point. I'm nervous today.
