• XX% of sports bets are currently on Indianapolis to win as (XX) favorites.

• The line for this game is Colts by 2 points.

• The Indianapolis Colts found their way into the win column last week and are focused on making it two in a row – leaving little time for tourism this week. The Colts vow to be all about business when they cross the Atlantic and take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in London on Sunday.

• Bortles has recorded five touchdown passes and six interceptions in the first three weeks and was held to 194 passing yards against Baltimore in Week 3’s 19-17 home setback. Jacksonville is not doing a lot to help Bortles with the running game and ranks 31st in the NFL with an average of 55 yards on the ground as second-year back T.J. Yeldon (84 yards on 34 carries) has struggled to get going. Jacksonville was supposed to take a step forward in 2016, and the slow start has brought questions about coach Gus Bradley’s job security, which he insists is not a concern.

• Luck did not play in that 51-16 rout last season, sitting out with a lacerated kidney, but is 5-1 with 1,702 passing yards and 10 TDs in seven career games against Jacksonville. Luck is having some trouble finding healthy receivers, however, and T.Y. Hilton (knee) did not practice on Wednesday while Donte Moncrief (shoulder) could miss another month. The Colts steadily are getting healthier on the other side of the ball and surrendered 22 points in the Week 3 win after giving up a total of 73 in their first two contests.

• Colts LB Trent Cole was placed on injured reserve with a back injury.

• Jacksonville TE Julius Thomas (elbow) sat out practice and is questionable.

• Indianapolis CB Darius Butler (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday and is week-to-week.
