With all the injuries mounting up for both teams, especially in the OL and the secondary, this game is going to be ugly.
The O line really could struggle in this one, potentially enough to make the Colts' defense look competent. That should be the major concern this week.
With maybe about 6 Texans out for Sundays game it very well may have Luck throwing about 4 or 5 touchdowns. If Texans cannot run the ball they will get smashed. I think score will be about 30 to 17 Indy. Hope i am wrong.
Or better yet, the final score is 38-35 Colts and people blame the offense for the loss. That'll be hilarious and I can actually see that happening.

Maybe not having Fuller will force O'Brien to go back to slightly more productive offense of yore, causing us to be more effective. That's my spin, and I'm getting dizzy.
Why do we have so many p*****s on this team? Sunday night football and guys still don't wanna play. Pathetic
this is going to get ugly, can already see O'Brien's confused constipated look on the sideline as Luck and Hilton destroy us in primetime
Yikes. With so many people out and the defense kind of being a joke the last few games, this game could get ugly. The offense will still score, but can they keep up with the Colts who might score at will on our defense? I'm not sure.
Jay Glazer just said Will Fuller has a better shot at playing than not playing. He's typically spot on.
