[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Indianapolis Colts (1-1) and Baltimore Ravens (2-0) meet Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Colts vs. Ravens odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Colts covered the spread as 1-point underdogs with a 31-20 win at the Houston Texans as the Over (40.5) hit last Sunday. QB Anthony Richardson rushed for 2 TDs but left with a concussion in the 2nd quarter. QB Gardner Minshew replaced the rookie and finished 19-of-23 passing for 171 yards with 1 TD.

Minshew will get the start at Baltimore as Richardson has officially been ruled out.

The Ravens covered as 3-point underdogs in a 27-24 win at the Cincinnati Bengals as the Over (45.5) cashed last Sunday. QB Lamar Jackson (+1100 to win AP MVP at BetMGM Sportsbook) finished with 237 yards and 2 TDs.

Baltimore is 2-0 (1-1 against the spread) vs. Indianapolis since Jackson was drafted in 2018, while the Over and the Under have each cashed once.

Colts at Ravens picks and predictions

Prediction

Ravens 28, Colts 17

Moneyline

The Ravens (-400) should improve to 3-0 straight up vs. the Colts in the Jackson era, but there’s no need to pay the higher price on the moneyline when Baltimore should win by margin.

PASS. Lay the points and/or bet the total instead.

Against the spread

The Ravens have covered in their 1st 2 games this season, and I like them to continue playing above expectation. Baltimore’s injury report is not ideal, but it may give Jackson more freedom to create plays with his legs vs. this Indianapolis defense that has given up an average of 365.5 yards per game this year (8th-most in NFL).

While Minshew is a more-than-capable backup, I don’t expect him to be able to carry this offense on the road vs. the Ravens. This game may get out of hand early, especially since Baltimore coach John Harbaugh has been known to run up the score against inferior competition.

BET RAVENS -8.5 (-105).

Over/Under

The Over has hit in both Colts games this season, and their defense has allowed 25.5 points per game (t-19th in NFL).

Baltimore is tied with the Buffalo Bills for the 3rd-most red zone scoring attempts per game this season (4.5). Despite the Ravens’ injuries, I believe their offense will bully Indianapolis’ defense and help the Over hit Sunday.

BET OVER 43.5 (-110).

Indianapolis Colts at Baltimore Ravens odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Monday’s Indianapolis Colts at Baltimore Ravens odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Indianapolis Colts (1-3) and Baltimore Ravens (3-1) will wrap up Week 5 with a prime-time showdown on Monday Night Football. They’ll square off at M&T Bank Stadium at 8:15 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Colts vs. Ravens odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Colts grabbed their first win of the season last week by beating the Miami Dolphins 27-17. Prior to that, they had lost three straight, two of which were by at least 9 points. QB Carson Wentz has 5 touchdown passes and just 1 interception in his first four games with the Colts, putting up 920 passing yards. As a team, the Colts are just 22nd in scoring offense and 25th in yards per game.

The Ravens rank fourth in total offense and fourth in rushing yards. They’ve rung up three straight wins after losing to the Las Vegas Raiders in overtime in the season opener. QB Lamar Jackson has only 4 touchdown passes and 3 picks, but he’s averaging a whopping 69.8 rushing yards per game to lead the team. Baltimore’s biggest win of the season was a 36-35 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 2.

Colts at Ravens odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Ravens 27, Colts 21

Money line

The Colts might be finding some momentum after beating the Dolphins convincingly last week, but the Ravens are still the much better team. Baltimore’s offense is dangerous when Jackson is playing well and it will be difficult for the Colts to keep up with the Ravens on the scoreboard.

Indianapolis simply isn’t moving the ball consistently enough, which is why I’m taking the RAVENS (-350) to win outright. With a chalky money line, make it a small wager.

Against the spread

The Colts have allowed the eighth-fewest yards per game in the NFL through four games, so the defense has helped keep them in games; however, the offense has lagged far behind, averaging just 20.8 points per game. This is a game I think they will keep close, however, so long as the Ravens don’t go off for 35-plus points.

Each team is 2-2 ATS and after seeing the way the Colts played last week, I like them to cover. Bet the COLTS +7.5 (-120) to keep it within a touchdown.

Over/Under

The total has gone Over in two of the first four games for the Ravens and Colts this season; however, in their last three meetings, the Over is 0-3. Wentz continues to gain more comfort in the Colts offense and the Ravens should be able to run the ball fairly consistently against Indianapolis’ 17th-ranked run defense.

I like the OVER 46.5 (-110).
