Like the New York Giants beating the Patriots twice in the Super Bowl for example. 4 years apart. Same scenario. Same outcome.

I have:

- Colts win -2.5
- Colts win 1st half -1
- Ahmad Bradshaw to score at least 1 TD
- Dwayne Allen to score at least 1 TD

if everything is done I will make big money

Just b/c you see the covers consensus pick favorite, doesn't necessarily mean that the 'betting public' is all over it.

Indy has big Freeman back as of this past week, should help them slow down the run and possibly get to the Shiztpatrick for the sack attack...

Colts -2.5 ....... BOL gang

Actually id have to say yes the public is on indy here. as a personal book, i have handful of players, all that has played thus far are taking indy. i have checked consensus on numerous sites, and again indy is pick. Anyone consider that the baltimore game might been a phiysically and mentally tough game for indy who is now in Houston? I see a let down game here. I will def say indy is the better team hands down. But in this spot please take houston, Indy may be looking ahead to cin next week. This is a perfect set up for let down, mark my words. Situational bet on Houston.

i feel like indy is the play but my gut says texans so its a no play for me. Although i do wish Hilton finds the end zone a few times for my fantasy team

Let's hope tonight will not be another Thursday Night stinker! I'd like to see a close and hard fought game for once. I think we will finally get a good game tonight!

I don't think Indy will be looking ahead to Cincy. This is a divisional game. Far more important than playing the Bengals plus they will be at home for that game and get extra days off. The Texans have been in 1st place since the start of the season. the Colts are motivated tonight and will give it all they got!

Sip on that plus money honey!

This game scares the garbage outta me so I'm staying away....

I pick the colts to cover but that's in my pkem league...

I did just see on ESPN that the Texans are an extremely slow starting team..... 4 of 5 first quarters they've been shutout.... plus I would imagine the colts will elect to receive the kickoff.... at least I would hope

So Im gonna throw some coin on colts 1q

Gl to all!

The Colts play well in Thursday night games. I'm pretty sure they have won 11 of their last 12 games on Thursday night football. Although the Colts will be weaker on the offensive line tonight with both starting guards out, JJ Watt should get Luck scrambling. Also I expect Arian Foster to have a huge game, 150 yards plus tonight which will chew up time off the clock.

The game should go Under 46.5 with Colts winning less the -2.5.

1 unit each under 46.5 and -2.5 colts.

If anything, the short week hurts the Texans a little bit more after playing half an overtime game.

Houston defense gives up more yardage on passes and runs than the Colts do and they played average offensive teams while Colts have played against offensive powerhouses. The Texans have the 25th ranked total defense and the Colts come in their house with the #2 ranked offense

I think Houston will keep it reasonably close but not by much. Arian Foster will be a big factor and Texans defense gets a few turnovers. It's still a division game after all and Texans have recently played Colts tough at home the last 5 years.

But just like on Monday night, I'm taking the better team on a short week

Colts win by 4-6 points, score: 27-23

Colts -3 and Over!!

Money in the bank! Congrats Colts and OVER backers
