I'm leaning more towards INDY mostly because JAX cannot rush the passer and when you don't get a pass rush against peyton, teams have a long day. They can play keep away all they want, but when Manning is on the field their defense is in trouble. It's hard to pick JAX here. I would like JAX to win this game, but their offense is horrid and with Sims-Walker banged up their passing attack blows. Their offensive line sucks. They haven;t had much success at all running the ball this year. The only reason they have is because they just run the **** out of it so 100 yards is misleading. But MJD hasn't touched 100 yds in weeks. Not sure why it would happen tonight against an undefeated team. The colts can say they might rest key players all they want, but I think Caldwell knows that when they have rested players in previous years, the Colts have made earlier exits in the playoffs. So I expect the Colts to win this game so I am not betting JAX +3. I'll sit this game out.
Not sure why it would apply to this game, but every single thursday night game this season has gone under the total.
