Jacksonville Jaguars are tipped to cover the spread against the Indianapolis Colts in their upcoming fixture. The Jaguars return well rested from their bye week and remain in play-off contention, despite a recent defeat in London. In contrast, the Colts have lost three consecutive games, fallen to 2-5, and have started trading away key players, signalling a shift away from competing this season. Recent head-to-head results show Jacksonville won the last meeting, and the Colts have failed to cover in four of their five losses, supporting the tip for the Jaguars.

Jacksonville are tipped to cover as they make a winning return to action.

The Jaguars are well rested after the two-week stint in London, and despite that loss this is a good team with playoff ambitions.

The Colts, on the other hand, have seemingly waved the white flag, starting their fire sale by letting two big talents go (and more may have gone by the time this game kicks off).

Key Numbers – Will Jaguars Improve To 5-2?

  • Jacksonville Jaguars have won 4 of their 6 games
  • Jacksonville Jaguars have covered in 3 of their 4 wins
  • Indianapolis Colts have lost 3 straight games
  • Indianapolis Colts have failed to cover in 4 of their 5 losses
  • The Over has cashed in 6 of the last 7 meetings

Colts Lead All-Time Head-To-Head; Jaguars Won Last Meeting

  • Indianapolis Colts lead the all-time series 28-22
  • Jacksonville Jaguars won 23-17 when the two teams last met in December 2025

Indianapolis Colts On Three-Game Losing Run

Indianapolis head out on the road having lost three consecutive games to fall to 2-5 on the season.

The Colts opened with a 41-23 defeat at home to Baltimore, before travelling to Kansas City for a 33-30 overtime loss to the Chiefs.

They finally got off the mark in Week 3 as they beat Houston 19-17 at home, and they backed that up a week later as they downed Washington in overtime on the road, 30-13.

Indianapolis have not won since though, with a 34-22 defeat in Pittsburgh sparking a three-game losing run that has resulted in the GM being fired and key pieces being traded.

The Colts have also lost 26-20 at home to Tennessee, and 16-10 on the road at Minnesota.

Jacksonville Jaguars Look To Bounce Back From London Loss

Jacksonville return from the bye week looking to rebound from the defeat at Wembley, which dropped them to 4-2.

The Jaguars raced out of the blocks with a 34-10 blowout of Cleveland at home, but failed to follow that up a week later as they lost 20-13 in Denver.

They issued an immediate – and impressive – response, as they dominated New England in a 35-6 victory at home.

Jacksonville backed that up by winning 22-17 in Cincinnati, before downing Philadelphia 19-17 in London thanks to a walk-off field goal.

The Jaguars were unable to go 2-0 in England though, as they were then victims of a last-gasp field goal themselves, falling 34-31 to Houston.

Verdict

Indianapolis’ actions this week suggest they are already done with the 2026 season.

The same cannot be said for this playoff chasing Jacksonville team, and we are backing the Jaguars to cover the spread as they record win number five.
