Colts Betting Lines

Indianapolis enters this game with an 0-5 straight-up record and 3-2 against-the-spread mark, dropping a 28-24 contest to the Kansas City Chiefs last week as one-point home favorites.

Kansas City picked up its first win of the season last week, handing the Minnesota Vikings a 22-17 defeat as three-point home underdogs. The Chiefs will now be heading out on the road for the third time this year.

Indianapolis has played much better football the past two weeks, but will enter this week’s Monday Night Football contest with an 0-3 record. The Colts have been out-gained in all three games this year and it’s likely that quarterback Peyton Manning will be out the entire year.

Lines for Week 3 in the NFL

Cleveland is mainly a road favorite in this contest due to Indianapolis dropping a 34-7 road contest to the Houston Texans than its own defeat to the Cincinnati Bengals. The Browns fell to 0-1 on the season in losing a 27-17

NFL Lines for week 2

Indianapolis dropped a 34-24 contest in last year’s season opener against Houston, failing to deliver as one-point road favorites. The Colts finished that contest with a 463-355 yardage advantage

What a different a year makes when analyzing the second consecutive year of opening a season against each other. Indianapolis failed as a one-point road favorite in Houston last year

Florida Atlantic travels to The Swamp in Gainesville and will begin the final season under head coach Howard Schnellenberger, who began the program 13 years ago, taking it from obscurity into the major college football ranks

LSU is a dominating 20-4 all-time against current members of the Pac-12 Conference, which includes a 3-0 mark under Miles. Playing inside of a dome will likely factor little in the Tigers ability to come out with a victory, entering with a 22-7 all-time mark when indoors. LSU has won

Indianapolis has dropped all three preseason games straight-up, but did manage to cover the spread in its 24-21 loss to the Green Bay Packers as nine-point home underdogs

Green Bay is coming off a 28-20 home win over the Arizona Cardinals last week as 5-point favorites. The Packers first-team offense was on the field for three series and posted a touchdown drive out of the no-huddle offense. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers connected on all five of his attempts during

Bettors are enjoying a unique opportunity to start playing around with the NFL Week 1 lines this year, even with many roster spots in doubt due to free agency starting this week. Professional bettors will continue moving these numbers around until the season kicks off with a premiere matchup

Washington and Indianapolis have played 27 times in the preseason and the Colts hold a 15-11-1 edge. During the 2008 preseason, the two teams played in the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, with the Redskins winning 30-16. The Redskins are 1-0 in the preseason after a 16-7

The ongoing negotiations between the NFL owners and the Players Association to arrive at a new CBA (collective bargaining agreement) continue to point towards a resolution that could potentially end a four-month owner imposed lockout of the players and reopen the league for business as early as the end of this week

The 2011 Pro Bowl returns to Hawaii after being held in Miami, Florida last year. The annual contest of the AFC's and NFC's best will take place Sunday, Jan. 30, 2011, at 7 p.m. ET. This is only the second time in history that the Pro Bowl will be held the week

The Colts really surprised us by winning out at the end of the year. This is a rematch of last year’s AFC title game. If you remember correctly the Jets were in it for most of the game. This is

After looking like they weren’t going to do it, it now looks like the Colts will win the division. One thing stands in their way, a victory this week against

Believe it or not if Jacksonville wins this game they will clinch the AFC south, based on the fact that would have swept the season series versus Indianapolis. If the Colts lose this game

We are still 17 games over .500 this year, and we have some goods plays for you this week. Both of these teams played terrible last week. Tennessee because

Dallas has been playing really good ball and should have won that Thanksgiving game. Peyton Manning has been out on an island lately with half

We don’t understand the line except for the fact that the home team always gets 3 points. The Chargers are ready to go on their usual late

There was an old joke that the Tennis player Vitas Gerulaitas told many years ago. He had lost to Jimmy Connors 16 times in a row then when he finally won and in the press conference said

The Bengals should have won that game last week against Pittsburgh, too many costly turnovers cost them the game. Indianiapolis is still really banged up on offense

You really have to give Peyton Manning credit, for beating Houston without any players last week. They showed that the division crown still goes through

Another good match up on Monday Night Football. This is a rematch of the season opener which was won by Houston. This is a little different this time around

We are going to play a 10 point teaser this week. Washington has played better than most people thought, not us. The Colts have played

The Chiefs scare me; they are finding different ways to win games and are undefeated. The Colts are finding different ways to

Another great week. We went 7-3 and hit on our big teaser bet. That makes it year to date, 27-14-1 and 3-1 on Teaser betting. We will start the week

We really still believe in Jacksonville this year even if no one else does. The Colts have had a tough schedule early on, but are managing to win more

The Colts surprised the Giants by running the ball right down the gut last week. The Broncos played well last week, but must deal with another dead

After a surprising Week 3 performance in which Wisconsin barely squeaked out a 20-19 win over Arizona State and needed a blocked extra point to do it, the Badgers get

I’m surprised this line is so low. Normally everybody loves to bet Peyton and everybody hates to bet Eli. Although it wasn’t perfect

Part 2 of our teaser could also be used as a straight bet. Indianapolis has looked terrible in the pre season as usual, and the new umpire position is hurting Manning while Houston has looked great in pre season.

The best 2 teams made the Super Bowl. Two months ago this was the match up that everyone wanted, then people started to talk about San Diego, Dallas, Baltimore or whatever team played one good game. The same people that said that the Colts wouldn’t recover from resting Peyton Manning are the same ones that are saying the Colts can’t lose this week.

For sports fans, Super Bowl Sunday is one of the best days of the year. For bettors, it can be not only entertaining, but profitable as well. This year’s Super Bowl predictably pitted the New Orleans Saints against the Indianapolis Colts. Through 14 weeks of the NFL season, these two teams combined for an unconscious 26-0 record, before both teams clinched home field advantage for the playoffs and rested their starters.

Maybe it’s time give the Jets a little credit and start to take them seriously or maybe not. This team is made up of a bunch of no name players, with a rookie quarterback, rookie coach, and one great corner back. It just goes to show you how important coaching is in football.

With emotions running high on both sides of the ball, one team (Florida) will benefit greatly. The other will suffer an embarrassing loss on New Year’s Day. Cincinnati is playing without former head coach Brian Kelly, who led the Bearcats to significant success in recent years

Both of these teams played games last week that will define their regular season. The Colts showed that they will be the Super bowl favorite come January, and the Jets blew one that might cost them the playoffs

This is the time of year when you must be very careful, because some teams are resting players, others are hungry, and some are just playing for their jobs. Each game must be analyzed separately, because each team takes a different view on when to rest their players. The coach of the Colts says that all healthy players will play in this game, and since 16-0 is still on the line that is probably true

The Broncos have been very tough to figure out all year. In the pre season they looked like the worst team in football, then got off to a 6-0 start, then lost 4 straight. 2 weeks ago they destroyed the Giants and last week killed the Chiefs. The Colts did what they always do and that's win

Virginia coach Al Groh has beaten the Cavaliers’ arch rival Hokies just one time in his nine years at UVA. He and the Cavaliers look to make that number two and possibly avoid his firing this Saturday in Charlottesville. The Hokies are in a down year at 8-3 and will not contend for the ACC Championship,

Not quite the same allure as the Red River Rivalry between Texas and Oklahoma, but this week’s Bedlam Rivalry game is Oklahoma State’s Super Bowl. The Cowboys have had a tremendous season so far and Oklahoma is sitting at 6-5, ensured of its worst season since 1999

Boise State doesn’t play too many home games where they are only 14 point favorites, but that is exactly what they are this week when Nevada comes to play on the blue turf. Boise State needs a win this week, and badly. Though the Broncos are 11-0, their only hope for a BCS appearance

Despite an 11-0 record up to this point, Alabama still realistically needs to win its next two games to get into the National Championship. With Florida a perfect 11-0 as well, the Crimson Tide will need to beat Auburn this week and Florida in the SEC Championship

At first glance you might think that it was quite a shocker that Oakland beat Cincinnati last week, but at we said the Bengals were coming off their biggest win in years and might be flat. We also felt that Jamarcus Russell was hindering the Raider offense and the switch to anybody but he was the correct move

This is an interesting matchup. At first look you might ask how the Ravens are favored in this game, but when you look more closely at it, you will see why. If there is any defense that can possibly stop Peyton Manning, it would be Baltimore. The Colts are coming off of a really big win and might be a little flat. The Ravens were embarrassed

Houston is starting to play like the team that I thought they would be before the season. They have won 3 straight against 3 pretty good teams. The Colts are 7-0, like they seem to be every year. The early (smart) money has knocked the line down from

We are going to start this week with our weekly teaser. We told you last week we guaranteed either a win, or something very memorable or shocking happening. After Pittsburgh-1, Green Bay-.5 and Patriots+3.5 covered extremely easily, the Giants +16 couldn’t keep it close at New Orleans. Shocking!

Both of these teams have problems. Miami really can’t play offense at the N.F.L. level. They look like a college or high school team at times, with their “Wildcat” offense and their quarterback who throws the ball like a shot put. Another quarterback, who has a funky delivery is Phillip Rivers

The next 2 games that we are picking, we are going a little bit out on a limb. There are 2 home dogs that both played very well last week as huge underdogs. Both teams had opportunities to win outright but didn’t.

Stop thinking about rain by itself as a bad weather indicator. Look at the mix of wind, turf quality, and precipitation. It's the mix that matters, not one third of the mix.

Bettors no longer have to look at mere sides and/or game totals to strike it rich as mostly all the online sports books (and many Las Vegas) outlets provide first and second half wagering lines along with quarter by quarter prices too on football betting.
