Tennessee Titans 9-7: 

Passing: 185.9 (29th)

Rushing 126.4 (4th)

Total Defense: 333.4 (8th)

The Titans are a team which has been easy to beat in the past. My one of my very good friends is a big time Titans fan; safe to say, we’re not friends during football season. In fact, the first Titans-Colts game of the season we go to dinner and loser pays. Last season, I got a steak dinner twice on him. I don’t always like spending other people’s money, but it’s especially nice when they’re a Titans fan. The Colts have always had the Titans number and I see them beating them twice again this year. The Colts are 9-3 now.

Houston Texans 11-5: 

Passing: 236.6 (15th)

Rushing 126.3 (8th)

Total Defense: 343.1 (12th)

The Texans had a good season last year and bested the Colts once in the three times they played last year. Deshaun Watson had another pretty good year with 29 touchdowns and 9 interceptions and threw 11 of those to DeAndre Hopkins who also caught 115 passes for 1,572 yards, leading the league. Their rushing game isn’t as strong and these games always come down to the wire. Last year, the home team lost so I assume this will be just the same and the series goes 1-1. The Colts are 10-4 now on the season.

Jacksonville Jaguars 5-11:

Passing: 194.3 (26th)

Rushing: 107.7 (19th)

Total Defense: 311.4 (5th)

The Jags have always been a quarterback from being good to great. They got Nick Foles in free agency and the Blake Bortles experiment is now over in Jacksonville. The 5-11 record has a lot to do with Leonard Fournette being injured for most of the year, but this is an easy sweep for the Colts and they end the season at 12-4.

Next. Who is the odd man out on the Colts' defense?. dark

Now I may optimistic, but with the improvements with the defense and keeping key players, I see no reason why they can’t get to 12-4 or even 11-5.
