Out of all the games that are going down today in Week 5 action, this game in my opinion could be the game of the week.

It will featured two of the best young quarterbacks in the league that last season’s draft blessed us fans with. Wilson who is off to a somewhat slow start is finally starting to get things together but seems to only do so late in the game. This team avoided their first loss last week against the Houston Texans as they were dominated for a good portion of the game but were able to come back and pick up the Win.

I thought for sure the game was over but wasn’t really surprised when I seen that they came back. That wasn’t really the case for Andrew Luck and the Colts as they destroyed the Jacksonville Jaguars 37-3 in their last outing.

Luck right now is slightly out dueling Wilson through the air. Luck has completed 81 passes of 127 attempts for 915 yards with five touchdowns and two interceptions. Wilson currently has 787 passing yards with six touchdowns and three interceptions.

Both of these teams are pretty much evenly matched. Indianapolis is currently ranked 24th (223) in passing, 4th (150 yards) rushing offense, 7th (200) pass and 16th (106) rush defense . Seattle currently sits 25th (208) in passing, 5th (144) in rushing offense, 4th (191) in pass and 18th  (109) rush defense.

Another thing these two teams have in common, is that they both dominated the San Francisco 49ers. So that should tell you what type of game this is going to be.
