The Indianapolis Colts (+4.5) host the Jacksonville Jaguars to kick off the 2023 regular season, as the Horseshoe hopes to win its first NFL opener in 9 years.
The majority of Colts fans aren’t optimistic that the Colts will ultimately snap that disappointing franchise streak, as only 42% of the Horseshoe’s faithful believe that rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson will win his first career start and beat their divisional rivals:

Colts fans are much more convinced (at a whopping 94%) that Shaquille Leonard will be ready to go for Week 1, as their star linebacker recently cleared the concussion protocol and all signs indicate he’ll be able to lace them up for the opener:

Meanwhile, as it relates to scoring, most Colts fans would rather take the field than choose one of Anthony Richardson, Deon Jackson, or Michael Pittman Jr.
