Colts at Patriots picks and predictions

Prediction

Patriots 20, Colts 17

Moneyline

The Patriots are still not doing great offensively, but they face a Colts team without their top running back and with Ehlinger at quarterback. The Pats have won 3 of their last 4 games and have not allowed more than 17 points in the last month.

The Colts have 6 games with fewer than 20 points.

There is too much for them to overcome, but betting the Pats to win outright is too expensive.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Pats average only 17.2 points per game with Mac Jones starting at quarterback.

However, as noted, the Colts have 6 games scoring fewer than 20 points.

Indy is No. 7 in points allowed, giving up only 19.6 per game.

It should be a low-scoring, close game that the Pats control.

BET COLTS +5.5 (-112).

Over/Under

No Taylor means an offensive struggle for the Colts and the Pats’ scoring average with Jones starting has been noted. Don’t expect a lot of points.

BET UNDER 40 (-110).
