    And will end up around -1 or -1.5 at some shops by game-time.

    Could this mean I've been right in backing them the past few weeks, as they are back in business? Think before replying.

    Still seeing +2.5 at a lot of books. Think the Colts win outright at San Diego.

        dont follow line moves to come to conclusions, follow game results

        the chargers have beaten them 2 in a row, and will probably make it a 3rd this sunday nite, making the line move look stupid

        be results oriented, not speculation oriented

        the colts are not back, not yet, and wont be without bob sanders

            Indy is the team that everyone is in love with now, Manning starting to get timing back. I still do not think they are good and their D is weak.

              Blah blah, it's ok to give a winner out once in a while. Let's not deceive everyone all the time.

                tell me again who i said in august would come back after you buried him saying he was through? (federer, and yes, you picked him to win the us open based on value with betting odds, but you buried him in august and i was clearly opposing your view)

                and tell me again who told you green bay would beat indy and that indy was overvalued by everyone after they beat baltimore thanks to turnovers?

                be results oriented, dont make decisions on how good a team is based on a freaking line move

                its dumb

                  Point is I've backed Indy the past few weeks and had eggs thrown at me, when I've realized this team is back in the swing of things and their recent form speaks for itself, as well as this line.

                          they beat new england and houston at home in the last 3 weeks, 2 teams with back up qb's but they barely won both games

                          keep backing them

                            And as for their win on the road versus Pittsburgh as a road dog? The #1 defense in the NFL? Yeah, chew on that for a few.

                              the best D in the NFL is tennessee, no matter what the stats say

                              colts will finish 11-5 or 10-6 because they play 4 crappy to avg teams in the last 5 weeks

                              they get tenn at home to finish the season when tenn will probably rest players

                              then its on to the playoffs where they will be excused again in unceremonious fashion

                                    when the gb line dropped in indy's favor, you tried to justify your team being the better pick because of it

                                    WRONG

                                    same thing will happen sunday

                                        what are you basing your statement of the #1 defense in the nfl on?

                                        pittsburgh gives up 15 pts per game

                                          The fact is, the Colts are back. And Roger Federer isn't.

                                            but you buried federer in august along w/everyone else, i clearly defended fed and said the august losses were basically meaningless

                                            then he won the us open, just give credit where its due, now he'll go win the aussie open in jan

                                            anyhow,

                                            the colts line is still +2.5 and +3 across the board

                                            where are you getting +1 from?

                                              Look at Pinnacle, has dropped from +3 Indy to +1.

                                                Being an Indy resident...I think I have a pretty good feel for this team but I don't bet them often being a hardcore fan! We definitely owe SD...they're really had our number for years and this is as good a time as ever!! LT is just a decent back at this point..in fact Michael Turner was the real Colts buster, Gates is at half-speed, and their D misses Merriman more than we miss Sanders when he's out! Marvin isn't what he once was but last weeks success should give him more confidence! The O-line is finally settled and allowing us a running game! Sanders is literally a 10 pt swing for the Colts D which is ridiculous but true! If he plays they beat the struggling Chargers....wouldn't touch Indy without him! Sproles could be a factor since Indy's return teams have been below average in the last few years! I'm looking at 49.5 for a total which should get passed easily in this one! Peyton will light these guys up and Rivers has those big wideouts vs our 2nd/3rd string DBs!!

                                                    I'm thinking something along the lines of a 28-24 final for Indy.

                                                      youll be wrong again, just like the green bay game where i told you BEFORE kick off that the pack would win

                                                      i'm telling you BEFORE kick off that the chargers will win

                                                      i base this on the fact that both teams have some issues on defense, but san diego will exploit indy's problems with more ease than vice versa

                                                      also, 2 time zone trip to play outdoors on grass at night in the nbc game of the week, chargers play very well at home when it's on sunday or monday night

                                                      chargers by minimum 7 pts

                                                            10 Reasons Why You Should Back The Colts

                                                            1.) Colts need to win for wildcard.
                                                            2.) Chargers season is over and they know it.
                                                            3.) Dungy> Turner
                                                            4.) Manning> Rivers
                                                            5.) Colts OL & DL > Chargers OL & injury riddled DL
                                                            6.) Indy has chip on shoulder and Manning always shines in revenge games. See AFC championship game vs NE as prime example.
                                                            7.) Indy OL and Dallas Clark at full strength. Marvin Harrison can't possibly be worse.
                                                            8.) Line opened +3 at Pinny and at +1 now and likely will be favored by gametime.
                                                            9.) The Colts won on the road vs the #1 Defense in the NFL, what makes you think SD can stop them?
                                                            10.) SD has air out of balloon and Colts are surging.

This Charger team is falling apart...if Bob Sanders plays then the Colts win by atleast a TD...if not its a close game like every other time these 2 play! The Colts have been one of the best road teams in the NFL so thats not going to bother them at all!! The defense is shaky but the offense is coming around....24 pts...3-0 TD ratio for Manning at Pittsburgh equals a long day at the office for the Chargers D!!
