Jaguars vs. Colts Same-Game Parlay (+205): Will Matt Ryan and the Colts Turn Things Around in Week 2?
The Indianapolis Colts earned a tie against the Houston Texans in Week 1. The Colts had their chances to escape with the win but couldn't capitalize. The Colts were expected to beat the Texans by multiple scores before the game, but the new-look Colts didn't look in sync yet. In Week 2, the Colts will face an improved Jacksonville Jaguars team on the road. The Jaguars might've lost to Washington to start the season, but Jacksonville kept it close throughout the game and even had a chance to win down the stretch. Will the Colts turn things around against a below-average Jaguars team, or will they give us the same performance as last week? Here's a same-game parlay for Sunday's game between the Indianapolis Colts vs. Jacksonville Jaguars.

Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Indianapolis Colts Same-Game Parlay Picks
Colts -3.5 (-114)
The Colts had difficulty putting away the Houston Texans. That was actually the case last year too. But at this point, I think the Colts are being undervalued. Not only did they bring in Matt Ryan at quarterback, but they also have Jonathan Taylor at running back. You know... the guy who won the MVP last year. The offense will need to get Taylor involved more and get him in space to make plays. On the other hand, the Jaguars lost to the Commanders and struggled to make tackles. Anyway, I'll say this. If Carson Wentz can score four touchdowns against the Jaguars passing the football, Ryan should be able to do the same. After all, the Colts decided to take Matt Ryan instead of Carson Wentz. In that sense, Ryan should be able to do more than Wentz against the same team. Ultimately, the Colts also played better defense than the Jaguars last week. The Colts played better defensively in every category from an analytics and statistical standpoint. I'll take the Colts against the spread. They'll win by at least a touchdown.
Colts Over 24.5 Total Points (-104)
The Colts didn't look tremendous offensively. But I'll still give the offensive line the benefit of the doubt. The offensive line blocked well for the running backs in the run game. Jonathan Taylor added 31 carries for 161 yards and a touchdown. The Colts, again, will want to commit to the run early, and if they can get Taylor in space, good things will ultimately happen offensively. They've also got Michael Pittman, who brought in nine catches for 121 yards and a touchdown. If the Colts get those two playmakers involved, they'll be well on their way to four touchdowns.
Colts -2.5 First Half (-110)
The Colts must come out in the first half and make a statement. They did the opposite of that last week against the Texans. The Colts have much more talent on their roster. The Jaguars had the most success rushing the football last week against the Jaguars. But I'll say this. The Colts looked the best in the run game defensively. The Colts should be able to get third down and longs early in this game with their rushing defense. If they can get off the field early, the Colts will be well on their way to a first-half cover.
