Bold Predictions for Sunday by Evan Massey, Classicalite.com
"1. Matt Hasselbeck Will Get Back to Playing Like a StarOnce again, the Colts have ruled star quarterback Andrew Luck out of this week’s game due to injury. That means that veteran Matt Hasselbeck will start once again and he will get back to playing like a star after a rough week against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. He will throw for 250 or more yards and will also throw for at least two touchdowns."
