Colts vs. Jaguars: NFL experts make Week 17 picks

Entering the final game of the regular season, the Indianapolis Colts (7-8) and Jacksonville Jaguars (5-10) are preparing for a Week 17 matchup at TIAA Bank Field.

The Colts opened the week as 3.5-point road favorites over their division foe—a team they defeated 31-13 in Week 11. But now, the Colts will be facing rookie Gardner Minshew instead of Nick Foles.

As Vegas sees the Colts winning this season’s finale, here is how some of the experts around the league view the matchup:

Vinnie Iyer (Sporting News) Colts 27-17
Pete Prisco (CBS Sports) Colts 26-20
Jared Dubin (CBS Sports) Colts N/A

Even with the Colts struggling over the last two months of the season, it shouldn’t be a surprise that they are still favored over the Jaguars—a team that has been struggling even more over that span.

The Colts round out their season on Sunday against the Jaguars and will be favorites entering the weekend.
