Sure they have an amazing offense, especially when going to the air. But they are going up against an equally dynamic defense– that of the Baltimore Ravens. Indy goes to the Ravens’ home turf as 4-point underdogs but they can certainly still win and this game won’t be over early (at least as far as Indianapolis is concerned.

Well, if you watched the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Indianapolis Colts, you must have thought that you were watching something made up by Edgar Allen Poe, Stephen King or Rod Serling. It was grotesque. It was bizarre. It was unbelievable. Continue reading “Colts Win Because of–?”
If you’re looking for an upset during the first round of the NFL Playoffs and you think a big spread is the way to go, then the visiting New York Jets at +9.5 in New England may be for you. But I’m no expert.
In what is supposed to be his final regular season game, Tiki Barber rushed for a franchise-record 234 yards, garnering three touchdowns and leading the New York football Giants to a 34- 28 win over the Washington Redskins. Oh, he has also basically assured the Giants of a playoff spot.

The Bengals play division opponents Ravens tonight and although these big cats can’t catch those high flying birds in the standings, Cincinnati is still in contention for a playoff spot, making a victory imperative. The Bengals have a 3-point home field advantage.
This Sunday the Dallas Cowboys head into Giants’ Stadium favored by 3.5 points. Their job is to take on Eli Manning, Tiki Barber and company. Manning has been having a tough time during the second half of the season. He has not been able to correct his erratic play that has included poor decision making and off target passes.
This season the NFL has added a third matchup to its Thanksgiving slate of games. Now all football fans are treated to 3 games spanning throughout the holiday, giving bettors a chance to have action while the family is in town.
First up for football fans is a 12:30 ET start as the Detroit Lions welcome the Miami Dolphins to the turf of Ford Field. The bookmakers have installed Miami as a 3-point favorite for this appetizer with the total sitting at 39, as ex-Lions QB Joey Harrington returns at the helm of the Dolphins. After a terrible start to the season – including six losses in their first seven games – Miami has reeled off three victories is a row and is making a run at a postseason berth.
If you’re looking at tonight’s big game as Brady Vs. Manning, then you’ve bought into the hype of the moment. First, there is no Brady Vs. Manning contest, unless you think that regular season stats equal greatness. Most years, except last, Manning has outmatched Brady in the stat area. But who went to the Super Bowl and won it? Last season, neither did. In previous years, only Brady has gone to the big game and won all three of them. To me the case is closed—Brady is superior. He manages to rise into the occasion more often than not in the big game and put his team into a position to win.
Yes– that’s the headline. Who would have thought it?! That in week 8 of the NFL season the lowly Oakland Raiders and the Super Bowl Championship Pittsburgh Steelers would have the exact same record—2 and 5? Not only that, but Oakland’s second win came against the Steelers! Ouch!
It’s official, QB Ben Rothlisberger will play today after suffering a concussion last week (his second such injury in six months). A report on ESPN.com today casts doubt on the NFL’s policy regarding head injury and the man in charge of that policy—Elliot Pellman.
