What is the point spread in the Indianapolis Colts football game with the Jacksonville Jaguars?

On Thursday Novenber 8th 2012 the Jacksonville Jaguars will face the Indianapolis Colts in Jacksonville.

The Jaguars record is currently at 1 win and 7 losses and the Colts are at 5 and 3. The Colts are 1-2 on the Road but they are 3-2 in the conference. The Jag’s are 1-3 in the conference but 0-4 at home.

Just the standings alone will give you a fairly good indication of who the favorites are. But I do caution you to not always just go by the numbers alone since we have seen quite a few upsets in recent weeks as well as throughout the season so far. A number of favorites have lost to supposed underdogs this year.

Another thing to consider is that this is the second game these two have played this season. They met in week 3 in Indianapolis and it is the only win that Jacksonville has had this year.

I read a report the other day that the Jaguars would win because the Colts quarterback did not have the experience to beat Jacksonville. Keep in mind that although the Colts quarterback is a rookie, he is having one heck of a year. In fact he has been setting records as a rookie so do not discount that.

What we we personally think will happen and what is the point spread? Well I think that Jacksonville will come in to the game with the confidence they can win, and they will play strong, maybe even better then they have so far this year.

However, quarterback Andrew Luck is coming off a great game from last week so he has a bit of momentum also. They beat the Texans last week at home.

I look for Jacksonville to try and shut down Luck early and they will attempt to cover wide receivers Reggie Wayne and T.Y. Hilton, but this will be difficult, and they also have Donnie Avery as well as tight end Dwayne Allen and a few others that Luck can throw to. Over the last few weeks Luck, has shown that he can make the completions.

With the game only 2 days away the line on this game at both Bet Online and William Hill has the Colts as a 3 point favorite. I agree that the Colts can win this and feel the 3 points is a pretty fair assessment and think that they should be able to make the spread.

No matter what the outcome of the football game is on Thursday, it is shaping up to be a good one. It may not be the highest scoring of games for the week, but it may well have some surprises on both sides of the ball.
