This Week in the AFC South-Week 6

#1
(This post was last modified: 10-11-2018, 07:22 PM by Bullseye.)

Last week was not a good week for the leaders in the division.  The beloved good guys, the defending AFC South Champion Jaguars last in big time fashion to the Kansas City Chiefs 30-14, in a game that saw Bortles have live action nightmare, committing five turnovers and being sacked several times.  The Jaguars' OL was beaten like a drum by the edge rushers of the Chiefs.  The Jaguars are now down to their 3rd LT.  Third team RB speedster Corey Grant is out for the year with a lis franc injury.  Things are not going well.  However, the loathsome and detestable tacks choked away their opportunity to increase the lead in the division by losing to the Bills on a last second FG.  The Colts last game had a familiar result-a loss to New England, while the Texans beat their cross state rival Cowboys, to move within a game of the tacks and Jaguars.  As for my predictions...let's just say the inner Bullseye fans in my head are calling for me to be fired from making predictions.  The sad part about it is, they may have a point.  What...?  Can't you hear them?!?

Anyhow, until I get fired from this position, I will continue to make predictions, no matter how painfully futile.

Colts (1-4) at Jets (2-3)-The Jets clearly are not as good as the Patriots, but contrary to what many think, they aren't too far from being a good team.  The Colts have been competitive in many of their games.  While Luck's arm is shot, he is still capable of being effective in short and intermediate passes.  Colts win 21-17.

Bills (2-3) at Texans (2-3)-The Bills' two wins have come over some impressive teams in Minnesota and Tennessee.  however, the Bills have some problems.  Their QB has been sacked 19 times and have no receivers.  However, the Texans have won two straight after a slow start, and they seemingly have found their pass rush.  The texans can't protect the QB either, but at home, they have enough to knock off Buffahole.  Texans 24 Bills 13

Ravens (3-2) at tacks (3-2)- A battle between two tough teams.  Despite being throttled defensively by Cleveland last week, the Ravens are pretty good offensively.  Flacco is enjoying something of a rebirth.  His line is giving him protection, and the passing game that was so moribund last year has shown spark.  Their defense is playing well, too.  They have more balance overall than the gritty tacks.  Ravens win 20-17.

Jaguars (3-2) at Cowboys (2-3)-TC spoke of wanting a team with grit.  Given the loss and the injuries listed above, we'll see just how much grit this team has as it goes to Dallas to face a Cowboys team wanting to keep pace in the NFC East.  I think if the Jaguars were healthy, they would win this game handily.  Defensively, they match up favorable against this Dallas team that has no offensive weapons that really scare opponents in the passing game (no respect to former Jaguars WR Allan Hurns).  Dallas can run the ball well with Elliott, but Jacksonville is much better against the run than they were at this stage last year.  But given how banged up the offensive line is going against a Dallas defense that can rush the passer and has a good back seven as well, I don't know if Bortles and the offense can rebound from such a disastrous performance last week.  Dallas wins 17-13.

Making my picks early again this week, I might change as the week progresses.

Colts (Gut Feeling)
Texans - They are starting to get on track.  They win if their QB can "take the hits".
Ravens - Titans just are not good, they have been lucky.
Jaguars - Dallas has a lot of problems right now.  Should be a relatively low scoring game with a battle of defenses.  Neither offense really has a "home run hitter".


There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.

I'll go colts, texans, ravens, and Jaguars.

Colts and jets is tough to call, but I'll take the colts this week.
Texans are at home, I think they can win there.
I could see the tacks winning, but I'll take the ravens.
Just like I could see a bad Blake game coming last week I think he'll be properly focused this week and the gameplan will be better than having him throw sixty times behind a makeshift offensive line. Jags win a closer low scoring game this week.

2-2 last week, 8-9 overall so far.

Jets over Colts - Colts stink outside of Luck, and even he isn't looking great this year. 
Texans over Bills- Two good defenses, with only one good offense. McCoy being back temps me to pick the Bills, but I am going tinhorns here
Ravens over Tacks - Just because I don't like the tacks, and I think the Ravens are good this year
Jags over cowboys - the Jags better not let me down. We are due for a good Blake/offense week.

I understand why some people are picking Dallas but how do you think they will manage to score points? Dak hasn't thrown for 300 yards in what seems like forever and he also barely throws for 200 most weeks.
