Anyone see the weather in Foxborough yet..... Just looked myself ....and sundays High is 44 but a 50% chance of rain after 10 a.m....... then sunday evening rain chance go to 70% and a low of 35 ....... Just saying that might be a recipe for these two great throwing quarterbacks to become grounded.. Not 100% but, depending on how well the field holds up??..... So does it become who can run the ball better..??? We all know what happened that sunday night in Indy when New England and Grey ran all over, and through the Colts....And giving the kickoff time on this game being 6;40 it could make this over a lot harder to get to....Just sayin...

Folks this is worth mentioning... NE beat Indy AT HOME by 20 points in week 11. Now NE is at home. BB and company will see this as a tough game as they should because Indy is no joke. Even with a clock munching running game I see NE covering this one at home easily. But I wouldn't be surprised if McDaniels has a brand new game plan.

IMO If both teams play perfect games who wins...NE
Which team has more ways to win? NE has proven they can beat the colts on the ground and most would agree they can through the air. NE is also in the top 3 in give away take away +-. IND only way to win is through Luck, if he doesn't play lights out they dont hav a chance to win period.
Recent history greatly favors NE
NE is at home
NE has an opportunistic D going against a qb that is asked to do to much and typically throws a couple errant passes.
I just dont see much that would make me take IND in this game. The DEN win was nice but the hype behind the colts D is greatly exaggerated, Manning and Den had plenty of opportunity but could not connect on seemingly routine plays for them.
NE by double digits IMO. 38-24 ish

This is a very interesting game to cap because NE game plan is game specific. Last week NE game plan was to pass because BAL front 7 was big and nasty against the run. What will NE game plan be this week? This week NE game plan could be to run because they had success running the last time they played. Last week the running backs were inactive. This week the running backs will could be activated. NE game plan usually is to attack the opponents weakness and avoid their strengths. Or will NE game plan be the power passing game with Gronkowski and Edelman. WE SHALL SEE ON SUNDAY!

Of the 4 teams left, who's the hot team? The team no one gave much chance before the playoffs? The Colts, of course. Now, hunch plays are for suckers I know. But throw in the fact that we're fairly healthy, we can finally run the ball somewhat, our O-line is way underrated, and our D is getting after it and I'd say we have more than a punchers chance up there. Only play here is Colts +7, but I'm going to throw in a little M.L. bet as well, just like I did against Denver! GLTA!
Our ....we.....us......shut up.

Andrew Luck's first lost in Foxboro was 35 pts, his 2nd visit 21 pts, and his 3rd outing...? 7??
I think this time we will finally see a classic battle reminiscent of those Brady vs Manning shootouts. Andrew Luck won his 1st road playoff game. Thats a huge confidence boost for the young QB and I believe that momentum will carry over into this game as he is having far more success in his first 3 years than his predecessor ever did. But unlike Manning, Brady is the best postseason QB of all time and Luck will come up just short. It took Manning 7 tries to beat Brady.. Luck will eventually get his 1st win.. But Maybe next season..
Pats 31, Colts 24
Waiting to see how line moves
Your asking the young Luck to pull a Joe Flacco? Go to Denver and beat Manning then travel all the way to Foxboro to beat Brady in the rain? There's no place like dome. So far he's already thrown 2 int
Sip on that plus money honey!

I placed a futures bet Sept. 4th for +1755 odds for Pats/Seahawks Super Bowl. Took Pats to win AFC @ +340 before the season began, took Seattle to win the NFC @ +320 Sept. 4th as well. Both home favorites are going to win straight up, no upsets. As far as covering the point spread, at least one dog is gonna cover and I say it's more likely to be the Colts than GB cause Rodgers calf is bad, it's truly hurting. This isn't some misleading tactic, Rodgers' calf isn't close to 100% and Seattle gonna pounce on the guy. As far as the colts/pats game goes, it's all gonna come down to how well Indy can rush Brady. They're gonna need some knockdowns and sacks to get in Tom's head. If Brady has all day in the pocket it's gonna be long game for the Colts.

The Patriots could NOT blow anyone out....Brady, like Manning is getting a little "long in the tooth", take Colts +7.5 (buy half). Andrew Luck IS the Young Manning and Brady put together.
Boy do you got alot to learn son!!!! First off never compare Brady to Manning!!!! Manning would never restructure his contract to build a winning team. Numbers maybe, but never as human being !!! Therefore you'll see Brady and Co. move on to the SUPERBOWL and "WIN IT ALL." This team is a team, not one!! A team!!!! Super Bowl won't be a easy one but its guaranteed to be a classic!!!!
PATROITS WIN BABY !!!!!!

Indy beat two terrible teams to get here. Denver was terrible in the last month of the season and the Bungles, I don't need to explain them. Think the Pats might blow this young man Luck out up in Foxborough.

It is true I am from indy and I try not to bet with emotion (although I had a ML bet on colts last weekend), but they (we) are playing pretty good now and I just think the logical play in an NFL game with 2 capable teams is to take the dog and the points, especially if it's 7. I'm just trying to help people make money.

There's a lot of homers posting here. I'm not spewing emotional nonsense--the Colts are undeniably playing good right now and 7 seems rather generous. Take the Pats -7 at your own peril. Colts +7 is the logical play (although it looks like it's moved to 6.5 a lot of places).

Indy is on a mission and the Pats will not deny them. You can see the fire and complete team intensity they have going for them. I think Luck will throw an interception or 2 and maybe make a bonehead fumble, but what he does positive- wise will more than offset his deficiencies. NE's offense (note the correct spelling for all you fools that spell it "offence") is not going to be enough to keep up with Indy's balanced attack, plus Indy's "D" is much better than NE's.
I, personally, advise betting Indy and the Over in this game. I predict Indy 38 - NE 24. - GL all - THE Myth

Last week you posted giving 11.5 points in a playoff game was insane. I took Seattle over Carolina and won. You always say you have been at this a long time yet your picks are wrong 90% of the time.... Give me NE all day. It may be true you have been gambling on football a long time but don't try to use your age as an attempt to sway someone's pick as fading you is $$$$.

This line is bound to move--I agree with the capper who said it was more bad Broncos than good Colts and who foresaw that timebomb ticking in Denver ( that explosion took out coaches and maybe Manning ) . Well the only bombs in this game are the ones Brady throws and they explode into a win -- but he who scores last scores best. I'm looking at an over and the Patriots only if that line goes to Pats - 6 1/2 ... even that is asking for a boatload of fieldgoals...just a weird feeling
