I guarantee a Texans victory this Thursday night!
Why would the Colts even take a chance in losing the #1 overall pick to draft Andrew Luck? The Rams and Vikings both have 2 wins each and I believe if the Colts did happen to win this game and finish out 2-14 St. Louis Rams would win the tie breaker and get the #1 pick and possibly draft Luck or trade the pick. The Colts are taking no chances tomorrow night, Houston will win this game easily. Right now the spread is Houston -6, so if your a gambling man...take Houston, the Colts aren't even gonna chance it by making this a tight game. Like I said, I guarantee a Houston Texans easy victory Thursday night! Your thoughts???

I agree the Texans will win as they are superior. And it's as simple as that, you're reading far too much into it

I don't buy this at all, what are you expecting to happen?
The QB will throw errant passes so he'll get cut this off-season, replaced by Luck and no team will ever give him a chance again?
The marginal Olinemen will not give their effort and get their QB killed? And so they look horrible on film and then they get cut. Same with the linebackers? The defensive backs will be jogging around
Or Jim Caldwell who is facing the sack will just give up
Coaches and players play to win.

My post is not realy aimed at you man :)
Just I've been reading these Suck for Luck posts for months now, something I completely discount
Re: I guarantee a Texans victory this Thursday night!
I believe the Colts will hang in the game and win it at the end.

Yeah I don't see a coach or player saying "I know I've got to show what I can do to make this team or another next year... but I am going to let this guy run by me fore a TD so we can draft Luck"
Ain't happening!

This one is a road game for a team that has already locked up the division and disappointed at home against the Panthers. That sounds like a team that is content. Under those circumstances, anything can happen.

There is potentially a 1st round bye on the line. I doubt they are content. But they are vulnerable with a 3rd string QB playing on the road against a divisional opponent.
Still, I doubt the Colts will win this.
Re: I guarantee a Texans victory this Thursday night!
I honestly see the colts winning this one...
I feel it.. No wade phillips that defense looks diffrent, and it looks like the colts finally have a fighting chance with Orlovsky.
Re: I guarantee a Texans victory this Thursday night!
Well, I have to say that I agree with a lot that was said in this thread, but from watching the first 54 seconds it seems like they're playing to lose, I know it's early but Houston kicks off,1st play Colts fumble, Houston walks into the endzone untouched after the second offensive play...I'm sure I'm wrong though, the Colts could be playing to win these last 2 games.
