Colts @ Broncos More or Less Contest
Recommended Pick:
Russell Wilson less than 245.5 passing yards and Matt Ryan less than 240.5 passing yards
Wilson and the Broncos are going to be in for a tough matchup against this Colts defense on Thursday night. Through the first four weeks of the season, the Colts have allowed an average of just 218.5 passing yards per game to quarterbacks, which ranks 10th-best in the league. The Broncos will also be without Javonte Williams, which means that the Colts should likely be able to key in on the wide receivers in this game and slow Wilson down. They also may not struggle that much, regardless, as Wilson has thrown for more than this total in just one game this season and that was back in Week 1.
The Broncos have been superb against the pass as well to begin the season as they have allowed just 771 passing yards through four games, which is ranked fifth-best in the league thus far. Aside from last week against Tennessee, Ryan and the Colts have struggled to move the ball through the air as he has not thrown for more than this total in any other game.

Colts @ Broncos More or Less Contest
Recommended Pick:
Michael Pittman Jr. less than 68.5 receiving yards and Jerry Jeudy less than 59.5 receiving yards
If we are going with the less than for Ryan, it only makes sense to pair Pittman Jr. as a less than also. Pittman will likely be covered by Patrick Surtain II, which is an extremely difficult matchup. This game also has a total expected in the low 40s, so passing and receiving yards will be at a premium. In addition to these two facets of the game, Denver as a whole has allowed the third-fewest receiving yards to the wide receiver position through the first four weeks of the season.
We are going to stay with the less than theme here as the Colts have also been stout against the pass this season. Through the first four weeks of the season, they have allowed an average of 114 receiving yards per game to the wide receiver position, which is the best in the league. Jeudy has also only averaged five targets per game while only eclipsing this total against the Seahawks (Week 1) and the Raiders (Week 4), both of which have performed worse against wideouts than the Colts thus far.
