Colts open as slight home favorites over Jaguars in Week 6

The Indianapolis Colts (2-2-1) will be looking for some revenge as they host the Jacksonville Jaguars (2-3) at Lucas Oil Stadium in Week 6.

Yet to grab their first divisional win of the season, the Colts are surprisingly right in the thick of the race despite having one of the worst offenses in the NFL through five games.

Coming off of the mini bye week, the Colts open Week 6 as 2.5-point home favorites over the Jaguars, according to Tipico Sportsbook.

Spread Moneyline Total Points
Jacksonville Jaguars (2-3) +2.5 +115 O 41.5
-112
Indianapolis Colts (2-2-1) -2.5 -135 U 41.5
-108

Considering the Week 2 blowout that put head coach Frank Reich and general manager Chris Ballard on the hot seat, it is a bit surprising that the Colts are favored in this matchup.

However, the Jaguars are coming off a brutal 13-6 loss at home against the Houston Texans so there’s reason to think this will be a close matchup with the Colts being at home.

The Colts have a lot of things to correct going into this matchup against the Jaguars, especially when it comes to the offensive line. The unit has held back the entire team, and that has been on full display throughout the season.

Regardless, the Colts will go into the week as slight home favorites, and we’ll check back later to see if the line changes at all leading up to the divisional bout.
