Andrew Luck carves up Jaguars in big fantasy day
Andrew Luck took care of business against the Jaguars. We break down the fantasy implications.

Those numbers were good for a fantastic 140.4 passer rating and a 9.5 yards-per-attempt (YPA) average. Luck was coming off a pathetic 5.1 YPA against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2, so he really needed a big outing. He has thrown the ball a lot this season, averaging 42 attempts per game.
The Colts still aren’t throwing the ball down the field much and 23 of Luck’s 39 passes went to his tight ends and running backs. Offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton hasn’t taken the reins off Luck just yet, but that could be coming soon.
Fantasy impact: He's looking at a Week 4 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, a team that has been absolutely torched in the past two weeks of the season. You're going to want to start Luck next week without question.
