INDIANAPOLIS (45.5) @ HOUSTON (-4)
Indianapolis starting QB returned from injury, and scored 33 points in last week’s win over the Jags, Prior to Brissett’s absence, recall the Colts were upset by Miami. Now, with a fully healthy starting quarterback, gives the Colts the edge in this game. With a short week, I always like to rate head coaches when facing each other. The Colts have a clear advantage over the Texans. The Houston offensive line is in shambles, and allowed six sacks last week. Houston had trouble scoring against Baltimore (7 points), and now they’re facing a tough Colts defense. HOUSTON is 0-7 ATS when playing against a team with a winning record in the second half of the season over the last 3 seasons. Prediction: INDIANAPOLIS 27 HOUSTON 24, ATS INDIANAPOLIS +4, OVER 45.5.
