Houston at Indianapolis (11/08/2009)

I was just about to post the same thing...

he could turn out to be a huge x-factor...

I may jsut stick with the OVER

BREAKING NEWS:

Adam Schefter is reporting Indy starting CB Marlin Jackson tore his ACL in practice and is gone for the year.  Potential boost to Texans passing game.

Over is looking very good here...

 indi win and cover. no potential for the texans just because one player is missing. also the texans have a reciever that scored 5 tds and has a bunch of yards. manning gets it done. i predect a score like the indi arizona game

missing*

I guess you're not biased at all coltsalltheway

Wondering what differences you see in Houston compared to SF since you thought the 49ers would get blown out by your Colts last week.

Daniels is a huge loss, but AJ will be running full force.  The Colts secondary will be burned at least once by the speedster.  I'm taking the underdog vs Indy for back to back weeks  Worked out last week.

my man we both know that manning had a bad day last week. he had so many 3ed downs in the redzone and never got touchdowns. if he did so with one touchdown and they did not go for the 2 points and missed indi woulda coverd. sf woulda threw the ball like they did at the end of the game and got no where. you will see what i'm talking about come game time  

by the way i called the texans blow out on cinci and on the bills but i know they will fall this week. gl to all 

plus dont forget that indi is still at home.

I might have to go with Houston +points on this one.
Houston, no matter how good or bad they are, has proven to be a real thorn in Indys side the past few years....

Bob Sanders out for the year?  Houston looks better every day.  AJ is coming baby

Are you kidding me 9 points in a division matchup between two solid teams.Give me Houston all day and all this over talk is lame because when I brake this game down I get a final score of 24-20.Not saying the over wont hit but defense will play a part in this so called shootout lol. If I had the balls I would take a shot at Texans moneyline haha.Think Houston is one of the best up an coming teams

Hey I think Houston got a good chance here not telling you to pull the trigger cause they are going up against Payton but if ya feel real good about it go for it man good payout

Over 48, gimme. Both teams can score 24 on each other. Like Houston +9.5 too, but not as much as the total.

24-24 end of the 4th=

i'm not here to argue but to help. bob sanders did not play a big roll in the sf game either and they where gonna blow them out. this game here is everything for manning and he seems to do good against team that like the passing game. indi in not travelling and hthe texans won the last 3 games ( the are not a contestant team) the texans are going into this one knowing they will not win this game. vegas knows that people will be betting on the texans and thats why they put a line of 9.5. they didnt do it for you to win, they did it to confuse the shit out of you. the texans will not score more than 15 points in this game. why?? because owen daniels is out and who else is gonna do the work for him? he is the best thing that happened to them in years. sanders is out but there are plenty of other players that had sacks and interceptions other than him. indi will force the texans to throw and that will lead to fumbles and interceptions. this game will be 33- 15 at the most.

sorry people i have this wirless keybord and it keeps missing parts of what i type

Just when you think Pro-V is gone he's right there in front of your face lol

kiley you need to grow up and talk football

All kinds of public money is being bet on HOU here.

I like HOU here.

When they do loose its not by very much.

I see them keeping it close.

I'll take HOU to cover.

 

Oh and Colts

You can make comments about me and my post when I give you permission

* no line adjustment?  now that Sanders is announced out???? not even a half point?lol

  wow people are really gunna load up on the Texans now!!!

hmmm...

i don't like the fact that  the Texans only scored a measily 6 points in the 1st half last week, and got 3  up the gut/junk backup rushing tds from inside the 3yd line!!! (actually 1 was an 11yd rush, so i give a lil credit for that rushing td)... BUT NO PASSING TDS  by the Texans in the whole game... and no passing tds in last 2 Q of sf game the week before...Hmmm  thats 6 straight quarters  with no passing tds!!!, 

 wow, the only tds Houston scored in the last 6 Quarters was a 1yd rush, a 3yd rush & the 11yd rush!!!? (all against the bills in the 4th Q)...

sorry, just can't put much stock in those kind of tds (1Q out of 6Q)... back to fgs for Houston this week i think....(and just a few different plays/results & the Texans could have lost that SF game AND lost the Bills game, going into this matchup)...

and Conversely---> as i alluded to in my last post (& coltsalltheWay was trying to reaffirm): if manning completes a couple of those four 3rd & 3s  inside the redzone last week, that indy-SF game couldda been a colts blowout!!!  & SF has a better D than the kubiakHexans!!!...

i'm just trying to shed some light that might be overlooked because of the colts-SF  final score/non cover (let down)...

*sure, my "Lean" could be dead wrong on the outcome of this game, it happens to the best of us...lol  (thats why i will have a teaser play with Hou & ov, as possible security-hedge and /or middle)...hehe

but, Let the whole world "load up" on the Texans here (just like everyone did with the gmen the past few weeks-- as ONE example)  

please continue to load up on the Texans & cause the line to drop a little.. thank you in advance! hehe 

i'll rely on a pissed off  & disappointed  Manning to cover by 10  

*i really don't mind losing against the Texans this week... they are a debacle squad, always were  (& kubiak is a fuckin mannequin!!!)... i can't seem to win a Texans bet this year anyway!  with or against....they're too jekle & hyde'ish... (but odds are, i should finally win one sooner or later right? & this is a nice spot to do it & get my financial-revenge  i think)...

*but guys, please wait before you totally attack my post/thoughts UNTIL after the final at least... lets see what happens first... then your welcome to unleash! lol

i trust in Manning enough  to take the abuse (hes won me & many of you  thousand$  in the past 5 or so  years, i can take a little flack in exchange)hehe

& just for the record: "LsPriano" girly,  called the Ltech cover over Boise tonight (fri) and she was right!... but yet everybody smashed her thoughts/post in the Boise thread  and went ahead & wagered thousands on Boise -21... everybody told her "to calm down"...Lmfao... don't matter how the game went, the bottom line is she covered  (+21).... nice goin Ls!!!

GLall  this Sunday...

actually, come to think of it, i will prob go with a small security-hedge parlay with Texans & the Over...  regular spread instead,  not teased...

& i will admit i'm a bit nervous with the Over in this game?... might just have to go with  the Hexans & the Under maybe?... Houston not exactly firing on all cylinders AND if Manning struggles for the second week in a row, could go under?.. still pondering the total...

curious: does anybody like the under play in this game?  and is anybody willing to go with a Texans moneyline play???  thought i saw 1 post that was going with a Texans ML... gunna read back & see... there is some quality value there, IF  the texans fire on ALL cylinders and Manning has back2back  bad games (which is rare)...

might be worth a $50bill - 2teamer (texML & ov-un) = $600 (@approx +600)

GLall

lol, ok don't think texansML is +600 oopsie...

k, need to check my bettin site for the ML

ok +320, thought it was more... but still good value...

 

Sporty CHic:

It can be argued that Schaub is in the top three qbs in the league.  He had an off week, just like Manning did.  The only issue is, Manning was forced from the pocket where he is comfy.  The Texans D is not a pushover, and give the same looks as SF; very similar.  If Manning gets happy feet again, expect the Texans to stay hungry and take advantage of poor play.  Manning is an amazing QB, offensive coordinator, audible caller, etc.  There's no argument there.  The only thing is, Schaub can throw with the best of them.  Check out the injury report.  IND has several injuries now, not just Sanders.  Slaton can pick up the loss of Daniels, as he's one of the better backs to catch out of the backfield. Hopefully he loses his fumbleitis. 9.5 pts is a lot for the explosive Texans offense.  The Colts have only put up 30+ against St Louis, Seattle and AZ.  None of those teams play well or have enough consistency to mean anything.  If I had the gumption to bet real dough, Texans +9.5 

lol my man az is 4-0 on the road and indi has a perfect record. keep on hating and by the way there is no one to pick up daniels productivity.

they put 30 + on tenn , st louis, seatle, arizona and almost 30 points (27) on a miami team that puts reallll pressure on a qb with the wildcat plays. the texans do not have what it takes on d to keep manning outa the redzone. the teams that they got beat by are jets 27-7 ( more than 9.5 points),  jags 31-24 ( 7 point difference), arizona 28-21 ( 7 point difference). the teams they beat are the shitty oakland raiders 29-6 ( they couldnt put up more than 29 points on them), tenn 34-31 ( 3 point difference and another shitty team), cinci 28-17 ( if you watched the game you would know how they hit a luck trip on that one), sf 24-21 ( 3 point diference) and buffalo 31-10 ( simple and clear to why they had that score is because buffalo had a rookie qb playing and on top of that buffalo where winning in the first half). so if you want to diss arizona, then diss the texans as well because they lost by az. now you can see why the texans are not in a good spot to cover. they played the same teams that indi played but yet won by 3 points or lost by 7 when indi demolished those teams. indi -9.5 is money line. gl to all
