The Indianapolis Colts will face off against the Houston Texans in NFL Week 15 action. What five bold predictions can be made for the game and what should fans be on the lookout for throughout the game?
1. Matt Hasselbeck Will Get Back to Playing Like a Star
Once again, the Colts have ruled star quarterback Andrew Luck out of this week's game due to injury. That means that veteran Matt Hasselbeck will start once again and he will get back to playing like a star after a rough week against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. He will throw for 250 or more yards and will also throw for at least two touchdowns.
2. T.J. Yates Will Throw Three Interceptions
Brian Hoyer has been ruled out of this week's game against the Colts, which means that T.J. Yates will be the starting quarterback. He will struggle against a Colts defense that will be out to prove themselves this week. Yates will throw at least three interceptions and will put his team in a tough position to pull out a win on the road.
3. Frank Gore Will Rack Up at Least 100 Yards, Two Touchdowns
Coming into the 2015 season, the Colts were hoping that running back Frank Gore could be a workhorse for them. He hasn't been very consistent thus far and has dealt with some injury concerns as well. That being said, Gore will break through with at least 100 yards and two touchdowns in what could be the biggest game of the Colts' season.
4. J.J. Watt Wreaks Havoc on the Colts' Offense
One of the best defensive players in the NFL is J.J. Watt, who will wreak havoc on the Colts this week. He is going to get through the Colts' weak offensive line and will lay a couple of big hits on Matt Hasselbeck. Watt has the potential to make big plays each and every week and that is the way that the Texans will pull out a win on the road if it is to happen.
5. Indianapolis Gets the Job Done and Improves to 7-7
Both of these teams are going to leave everything that they have on the field, but the Colts will pull out the win. Houston doesn't have the offensive firepower that they'll need with Hoyer out, while the Colts have had some success with Hasselbeck under center. Indianapolis will make the necessary plays down the stretch to get the job done and pull out the win.
