The Colts lose a key defensive piece for the final two games of the 2023 regular season.“Blackmon exited Indianapolis’ Week 16 loss to the with a shoulder injury, and now the third-year safety is set to miss the rest of the 2023 regular season after being placed on injured reserve.”
Starting to think this whole “favorite” thing isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.“I never expected the opening odds to have a monkey’s paw type effect on the Houston Texans. Each time they’ve been the favorite in this opening odds segment, they’ve gotten pantsed by far worse teams.

“The Tennessee Titans and Houston Texans released injury reports on Wednesday ahead of Sunday’s AFC South showdown. Most notably for the Titans, starting quarterback Will Levis returned to practice as a full participant. It appears that Levis will play versus the Texans.”

Trevor Siemian is likely to make his second start of the season.“Zach Wilson will not return to the lineup for the New York Jets when they face the Cleveland Browns on Thursday Night Football in Week 17. Head coach Robert Saleh revealed the third year quarterback has not cleared the concussion protocol.”
The performance on Christmas revealed all the problems with the 2023 offense in a single game.“It’s hard to start in any area of this offense because everything is broken. The passing game, the running game and even just simply lining up and correctly run plays or motion is something this offense can no longer achieve.”
