What is your guys' take on this?
I just placed a bet on the Colts.
For starters, the Bengals play worse at home (lack of fan support?) than they do on the road and I just don't feel like they're a team made to consistently beat teams by 7+ points. They did it against the Browns in week 1 (won by 10) and Jags this week (won by 10). But the Jags one was a crazy ending that got them such a big margin. Last time they beat a team on the road they followed it up by giving the Brocnos their only win. Colts have played the Steelers, Bucs, and Chiefs very closely and you have to think their D-Line will cause some problems for a young Andy Dalton. Colts are due for a win eventually, not saying it'll be this week but I do think Painter is learning how to use his weapons and if they can put up 20 points on the Bengals they will cover +7 IMO.
Opinions?
