Blake Bortles stepped up when his number was called in big win over the Indianapolis Colts

The Jacksonville Jaguars almost saw their season crumble to the ground in their week 6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams when star running back Leonard Fournette was left writhing on the ground in pain after turning his ankle.

Thankfully Fournette didn’t suffer a serious injury, but the Jaguars decided to play it safe this week and shut him down so he could rest through the bye week.

That meant no Fournette against the Indianapolis Colts and presumably no ground game.

With Blake Bortles playing as poorly as he has for most of the season, it was fair to expect the Jaguars to struggle in this contest.
