00:00But another game in the AFC South, Indianapolis Colts taking on the Jacksonville Jaguars.

00:04This line opened up, minus three-point favorite for Indy.

00:07It's down to one and a half, a total 47 and a half.

00:10The Jaguars playing much better football now.

00:12And also the questions are, Daniel Jones doesn't look like the same quarterback we saw in the first half of the season.

00:17Why? Well, one thing, he's got a broken leg that he's playing on, Joe.

00:21Does Indianapolis continue to fall?

00:23And can Jacksonville say, uh-uh, we're going to challenge for this division along with the Texans?

00:28Well, they've been doing it.

00:29I mean, ever since they've come out of their bye, Donnie, I mean, Jacksonville has been rolling teams.

00:34Coming off, what, a four-game road trip?

00:36They went, I mean, it feels like forever since the last time they played a game at home.

00:42And, yeah, and they've always been a thorn in the Colts' paw here.

00:48You know that, right?

00:49I think the Colts are 3-16-1 against the number versus Jacksonville.

00:55I mean, my goodness.

00:56I mean, nine different Colt quarterbacks are barely 500 against this Jags team.

01:02So, for whatever reason, the Jags have always had the Colts' number.

01:06We'll see if that continues this week.

01:09Yeah, we will see if that.

01:10I'll say, again, that's really hard to handicap now.

01:13But if you've watched the Minnesota Vikings over the past couple weeks, they have no offense.

01:18They have no answers at all.

01:19They have a boy genius that's supposed to be calling plays out here.

01:22Young quarterbacks, weapons out the wazoo at wide receiver, and they can't move the football.

01:26Washington's coming to town this weekend.

01:29The line here is sitting at 1.5 to 2, depending on where you're shopping at, in the total, of 42.5.

01:34Washington's listed as to be determined quarterback.

01:37I don't think it's going to be Jaden Daniels.

01:38He hasn't been cleared for contact yet.

01:40They're not going to rush him back in a lost season.

01:42But Marcus Mariota has been more than serviceable here.

01:46If I look at this game, am I wrong to think the wrong team is favored?

01:50Honestly.

01:52Well, you can.

01:53I mean, listen, you're going to have a situation here, Donnie, where a lot of people just watched

01:58Minnesota get shut out, right?

02:00And everybody's going to be like, wow, when NFL teams get shut out, Donnie, right?

02:05Bounce back.

02:06And they wouldn't be wrong.

02:08I mean, historically, it's been a very good.

02:11But in fact, I believe it's happened three other times this year where a team got shut

02:15out the following game, 3-0 against the numbers.

02:18So I get it.

02:19But the problem is, none of them had J.J.

02:22McCarthy, Carson Wentz, or Max Brosmer as their quarterbacks.

02:27And quite honestly, as bad as Max Brosmer was last week, the last game we saw J.J.

02:32McCarthy play against Green Bay was equally as bad.

02:36So there is nothing redeeming about this offense here.

02:40Or that makes you want to back at least Mariota and that off and that team.

02:46They showed me a little something in that game on Monday night there against Denver.

02:52They're not throwing in the towel.

02:54I expect them to get one here.
