Titans at Colts picks and predictions
Prediction
Colts 27, Titans 17
Moneyline
PASS.
The Titans have not impressed as of late and have dropped 3 straight games, 2 of which were at home. Tennessee isn’t fighting for a playoff spot like Indianapolis either. Expect the Colts to win but avoid playing them at this value.
Against the spread
BET COLTS -3.5 (-110).
The Titans have been a mess this season and have been inconsistent for bettors. They are 1-9 ATS over their last 10 games and have allowed at least 37 in 2 of their last 3, suggesting the Colts could ignite on the Titans.
Tennessee also has both Pollard and Levis nursing injuries which isn’t ideal for its already-struggling offense. The Colts are 4-2 ATS at home this season and have scored at least 25 points in 2 of their last 4 games.
Bet COLTS -3.5 (-110).
Over/Under
BET OVER 42.5 (-110).
The Colts have gone Over in 4 of their last 5 games and have allowed at least 24 in all 5. They have scored 20 or more in 4 of 6 home games on the season as well.
The Titans are 3-1 O/U in their last 4 games and have gone Over in 6 of 7 on the road. Their defense has been to blame, and there’s no reason to think they’ll effectively stop Indianapolis’ offense Sunday.
Take OVER 42.5 (-110).
