Indianapolis Colts
Rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson is on the IR and Gardner Minshew has been productive, reaching 300 passing yards in two of his last four appearances and 1527 passing yards with 8:5 TD to INT ratio. Zack Moss and Jonathan Taylor form a powerful running game and Michael Pittman Jr. has 593 receiving yards. The Colts had an impressive win against the Panthers last week and have covered the spread in two of their last three matches but struggled earlier due to defensive troubles, ranking near the bottom of many categories. The Indianapolis Colts enter this week with confidence at a rank of 17, 4-5 (5-4 ATS) this season. Under the helm of Gardner Minshew, the offense has been scoring an average of 25.8 points per game, placing them seventh, thanks to Zack Moss' and Jonathan Taylor's ground game and Michael Pittman Jr.'s excellent receiving records. The defense has proven to be a weak spot, giving up an average of 26.9 points per game, placing them 28th. Despite the losses the Colts have suffered, they are 1.5 games out of a playoff spot and have covered the spread in two of their last three matches.
