New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts: Pick and Odds
The New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts odds opened at Colts -2 ½ and most online betting establishments have moved up to -3 including Sports Interaction. Early action was about 60/40 favoring the visiting Patriots.
"It's an interesting game to handicap because you have two marquee teams, Super Bowl winners with quarterbacks who are first ballot Hall of Famers, no questions asked," says Frank Doyle, Analyst for Sports Interaction.com. "But that doesn't really apply in the here and now because now, half-way through the 2009 season, both the Patriots and Colts are struggling just a little bit.
"Indianapolis scrapped home against Houston and San Francisco in consecutive weeks, while New England lost - on the road - to Denver and the Jets. The Patriots won by ten against Miami last week but they haven't been getting it done in the red zone. I don't think they'll get it done on Sunday either. Colts -3 with Sports Interaction who I am on."
Doyle has been on fire, going 15-8-1 on the season to date.
