Week 1 picks: Who the experts are taking in Jaguars vs. Colts

Unsurprisingly, there’s no shortage of experts who think the Jaguars get out to a 1-0 start this afternoon.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are the defending AFC South champs and the favorite to win the division title again in 2023. The Indianapolis Colts are in the early stages of a rebuild with first-year head coach Shane Steichen and rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson about to make their regular season debuts.
