Indianapolis Colts - NFL Betting Analysis
In week 13, the Indianapolis Colts dropped a non-conference matchup against the Cowboys by a score of 54-19. Indianapolis lost the game by more than anticipated, as the oddsmakers placed Indianapolis as 11.0 point underdogs. By the end of the game, the teams combined for 73 points, surpassing the betting line of 44.

Look for the team to put together a strong offensive performance vs a Vikings defense, giving up 24.1 points per game.

We expect Indianapolis to have an above-average performance in the passing attack. On the ground, the Colts are averaging 100.2 rush yards per game, which is 26th in the league.
