Indianapolis Colts vs Jacksonville Jaguars 2nd Half week 10
The Second half in week 10 of Indianapolis Colts vs Jacksonville Jaguars
Jacksonville defense does their job on the first drive in the second half and stop the Colts from picking up any more points.
The Indianapolis colts defense answers with a pick and quick 6 with the touchdown from an interception extending their lead early in the third quarter. The score is now 23 to 3 with the Colts leading.
It seems like each time the Jaguars have a decent play or two they get sacked for a big loss or they get charged with a penalty and then do not convert on third down. It hapopened again on their next drive and the Colts get the ball back once again with unanswered points.
A few good defensive plays and Jacksonville holds the Colts and they have to punt the football. The Jaguars will get the ball back on the 24 yard line with just under 7 minutes left in the third quarter.
Bad timing for another 3 and out but that has been Jacksonville’s night so far with mistakes and failures to turn good field position or big plays from their defense into a scoring drive.
The Colts will get the ball back with just over 5 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. The Colts still have the ball at the end of the 3rd quarter and the score is still 23 to 3.
Another good play by the Jaguar defense and they force a fumble and recover the ball. This latest drive by Jacksonville is possibly one of the best of the game. The quarterback on this drive has been Chad Henne instead of Blaine Gabbert. And they get a touchdown and the score is now 10 to 23 with Jacksonville in the lead. There is just over 9 minutes in the game.
After using a good bit of time off the clock the Colts take another field goal and take the score to 27 to 10 Jacksonville. The Jaguars will get the ball back with just over 3 minutes left.
And what could have been the last play of the game for the Jaguars the ball is tipped in the air and picked off by the Colts and returned 51 yards giving the Colts the ball back deep in Jacksonville territory. Since there is only a minute plus left the Colts will win this game on a knee.
The final score Colts 27 to Jaguars 10. This win puts the Colts in 3rd place in the AFC and certainly makes their playoff picture look brighter.
