The NFL is going international and heading back to Wembley Stadium in London, England for the first time since, November 1st, 2015. With perhaps two of the worst NFL teams this year looking to square off in London, both teams need the "Big W" abdominally and this is why. Being that the Jaguars are 0-3 there are many rumours that if they lose, the coach, Gus Bradley has great potential to be fired and the quarterback, Blake Bortles also has great potential to be demoted from the starting quarterback spot. In all honesty, the Jaguars and the Colts still have a decent shot at making the playoffs because both of these teams are in the worst NFL division as a whole, the AFC South. For the Jaguars case, everybody is frustrated, the players, the coaches, and the fans. The only way to bust out of this frustration is to get a DUB. With this being said, let us get right in the Jaguars and Colts synopsis so you can choose who you think will win this game based off the following information!

**Note: This game will be played on CBS Sunday Morning at:** **6:30 AM (West Coast Time Zone)** **8:30 AM (Central Time Zone)** **9:30 AM (Eastern Time Zone)**

# Jacksonville Jaguars https://s19.postimg.org/hwsef0k9f/jaglogo640.jpg # Quarterback Synopsis Blake Bortles, the “Jags” quarterback has been off to a rough start, to say the least. Over the past 3 weeks, Bortles has thrown a ridiculous 6 interceptions and he has been sacked a whopping 9 times. The only good thing he has done this season has been throwing 5 touchdowns; but note, these 5 TD’s do not make up for his interceptions as he has thrown more picks than touchdowns. As he is in risk of losing the starting quarterback spot, he must have a spectacular performance this week to keep it. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/29/bortles-trump-gif4000b5bc.jpg # Running Back Synopsis Jacksonville is ranked second to worst out of 32 teams for total rushing yards. Going into week 4, they only have a total of 165 rushing yards, while the 18 NFL running back’s have more rushing yard then the Jaguars have as a whole! The newly acquired talented free agent whom was ranked 78 in the NFL’s top 100 players of 2016, Chris Ivory, made his 2016 season debut last week. He only ran for 14 yards on 12 attempts but remember, he just came off an injury. This week he will get the starting role back at running back assuming he doesn’t get hurt during practice this week and will hopefully help the *“Jags”* running game struggles. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/29/jagsrunninggame6c057.jpg # Wide Receiver Synopsis In hopes that Bortles has a good game this week, the main wide receivers he will target is, the *“stud”*, Allen Robinson and the former Florida Gator, Allen Hurns. This year, Allen Robinson, has 183 receiving yards and 2 touchdowns. On the other hand, Allen Hurns, is separated by 4 receiving yards and he has 179 and 0 touchdowns thus far. I’d expect these two to have a decent game and if Bortles is playing well, potentially a touchdown! https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/29/hurnsrobinson53cbb.jpg # Defense Synopsis The Jaguars are ranked 20/32 for rushing defense; they have gave up 329 rushing yards and 3 rushing touchdowns. In the passing category, they are ranked 7/32 only allowing 600 passing yards which is decent going into the 4th week, they have gave up 6 receiving touchdowns, and have 2 picks to seal the deal. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/29/JaguarsTitansDefensefd240.jpg # Kicker Synopsis Sadly, the kicker for the Jaguars isn’t going to make their team any better as he has already shanked 2 field goals this year. (4/6 FGM) Jason Myer has much room for improvement going into week 4 and let’s all hope he doesn’t shank any more field goals as he is a pro and does this for a living. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/29/jagskicker39e35.jpg # Jacksonville Jaguars Injury Report https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/30/thejagsinjuryreporta6d8e.png

# Indianapolis Colts https://s19.postimg.org/q3ke6lac3/coltlogo640.jpg # Quarterback Synopsis The Colts superstar, Andrew Luck, signed the largest paying contract ever this off-season. He signed a 6-year, $140 Million contract this offseason after coming off an injury ending season last year. This year, Luck, is ranked 9th in total passing yards sitting at 913 with a 61% pass completion rate, he has thrown 6 touchdowns, and has been intercepted by the defense 2 times thus far. Although he has been very limited at practice this week, he is expected to play on Sunday. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/29/Andrew-Luck_crop_north01e01.jpg # Running Back Synopsis The veteran, Frank Gore, is the starting running back for the Colts this year! On 48 rushing attempts, Gore has 185 yards and a touchdown to go with it. I think that Gore has been very impressive this year considering that he is 33 years old! P.S. 33 years old is very old for a running back in the NFL. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/29/frankgore95f93.jpg # Wide Receiver Synopsis The long time Colt, T.Y. Hilton, and the fastest wide receiver in football, Phillip Dorsett, will carry a large workload in London on Sunday. Hilton is having a great year with 294 receiving yards on 18/34 completed receptions and 1 touchdown. Dorsett is also having a great year, he is 8/15 on completed receptions for 151 yards! https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/30/tyhiltonfd0fd.jpg # Defense Synopsis Indianapolis has allowed 287 rushing yards and a total of 4 touchdowns and they are ranked 17/32 for rushing defense. There passing defense isn’t the best either ranking 27th/32 allowing 913 yards and 3 receiving touchdowns. From these defensive synopsis of both teams, I would predict this is an offensive game and very high scoring. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/30/Indianapolis-Colts-Defenseda36f.jpg # Kicker Synopsis One of the most loyal players in the NFL, Adam Vinatieri, is off to an okay start to the season making 6/7 FG’s. This isn’t horrible, but, knowing Adam, he won’t miss many more as he is one of the most precise field goal kickers in NFL history. https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/30/Adam-Vinatieri5b1b9.jpg # Indianapolis Colts Injury Report https://steemimg.com/images/2016/09/30/COLTSINJURYREPORT5566f.png # Betting Lines Note: These betting lines and odds are coming from the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino. | Team | Spread | | ------------ | ------------ | | Jacksonville Jaguars | -2.5 | | Indianapolis Colts | +2.5 |
