    Thurs: Colts +175 vs Bills
    I don't pay too much attention to preseason but I cannot see why Buffalo is favored here. Am I missing something? They were atrocious against the Redskins. I know Indy doesn't do much in the preseason, but I figure Manning is good for a score or two and the Colts should cruise from there.

    Any thoughts?

      Colts just dont care about wins in the pre-season... Bills need to win... having said that not sure how they can.. unless they play thier starters for 3qts.. a shot at Colts ML isnt a bad bet...

                I'm not a NFL preseason expert, but it's pretty much a toss-up in my mind. I don't think the Bills or any team for that matter "needs to win" as someone put it. The starters play a little, the 2nd's play a little more, and those fighting more jobs play even more.

                      This game may be as bad as last year's regular season game.

                            Dude, every bad team is favored in the preseason. That doesn't make them traps, you just have to pick your spots wisely.

                            I played the Titans/Vikings parlay last week, 2:1.

                                I'd go with Bills here. Colts are terrible in preseason.

                                  Yea the colts lose like 75% of their preseason games. Those games are a crap shoot the lions went 4-0 in the preseason then 0-16 in the regular season.

                                    I would totally stay away from this game. Sure Peyton will play for maybe 2 series if your lucky, unless he scores on his first series and looks as good as he did last week, then he will play the first series only. Buffalo on the other hand had the 1st string guys move the ball on Washington pretty well and the defense for the 1st string wasn't that bad as well. They didn't really fall apart until the 2nd stringers got in there.

                                    If I had to pick, and I guess I do, I'll take Indy and the fat 3.5 points, and the over the paltry 33 points, but I really would stay away, I can easily see this game going 13-10 either way.

                                          Curtis Painter is the worst QB in the league. That's why Buffalo is favored

                                                  Line is right where it should be, Colts may be worst preseason team in the whole NFL.

                                                  That said, this may be their best chance for a preseason win this year.

                                                  I like the UNDER best of all though, this has 14-10 written all over it.

                                                      Painter will throw 3 or 4 fukin picks. Manning will play 1 series, 2 at the most. You saw what happened to little bro didnt ya???When you're the Indy colts you dont worry about winning meaningless games, just playing your roster & getting a feel for their abilities

                                                        Something has to be wrong here. Is this the game were starters play the least. Haha, I have to look into this.
                                                        It's only the second preseason game for each team, and Indianapolis was, as Emmitt Smith would say, "blowed out" last week.

                                                            Bills and over is my take.
