00:00Action this week on The Gridiron.

00:02We're going to start with Houston and Indianapolis,

00:03a big game in the AFC South,

00:06which is going to see the favorite here,

00:07Indianapolis, at home for the first time in a long time here.

00:11But they're going to take on Houston.

00:12The question is, what are we going to get out of CJ Stroud

00:15who's going to be coming back from a concussion?

00:16Davis Mills wasn't stupendous,

00:19but Davis Mills was a winning quarterback here.

00:21The total is 44.5, down from 46.5 as a look ahead.

00:25Are we getting Indianapolis?

00:26Did they bounce back after that tough loss to Kansas City

00:29and say, you know what?

00:30This is still our division.

00:32We're going to wrap this up.

00:33Or does Houston show up with that filthy defense

00:36that has been known to play really, really good football home or away?

00:41What gives in this game, Joe?

00:41That four and a half seems about right here.

00:44Yeah, and it was three and a half,

00:46and then a lot of early money on the Colts came in,

00:50and it's kind of no man's land here

00:52as far as the books are concerned, right?

00:54Four and a half, maybe it's a five, back down to four.

00:57Either way, you're not going to be anywhere near a key number here

01:01of three or seven.

01:02So you've got to ask yourself, you've got,

01:05who would have thought it a month ago, right,

01:07that the AFC South would get to this point, Donnie,

01:11and the Colts would be chased down by maybe Jacksonville and Houston here.

01:17But that's the reality.

01:18The Texans, three straight wins, two of them, though, without CJ Stroud.

01:22And I don't know, I think the Colts,

01:26having not played a game at home since October 26th,

01:30in which they smashed Tennessee,

01:32this is a different team at home on the turf in a dome.

01:37I like their chances here,

01:39especially with the new defense now has a couple of games.

01:43They got healthier.

01:44I think Buckner will be back for this game.

01:46I just, there's not enough offense for the Texans to me

01:50to warrant thinking that they can not only win this game,

01:54but I don't think they can cover this game

01:56because I don't think Steichen and company

01:57will take their foot off the gas.

01:59I think they'll go for the kill here,

02:01and I'll lay it with the Colts.

02:02We'll see you next time.

02:18I'll see you then.
