Early thoughts on the big Pats/Colts matchup??

[Three Jack]

IMO vegas is making us believe that this game will be close. Pats -4.5 is a joke. Just as 2 weeks ago PATS -16vs. miami was a joke and just like this week PATS -15 vs. Wash was a joke. Its how vegas is playing these PATS games and ppl continue to fall for the trap and the points and take the dog.
NE lines arent nearly large enough and this game is exactly the same as the ones prior.

Pats -4.5 is a joke. NE should be IMO 7pt favs @ INDY this week.

final score prediction

NE 42
Indy 17

this game wont even be close!!!!

I agree with you that NE wins by at least 17, but last week you said the Pats game should be a 17 pt spread but would be 10...it opened at 16.5. And -15 isn't too far from 17.

Pats 41
Colts 24

yes and ppl still took the bait and bet WASH yesterday. and that wash line should have been atleast 17 if not more IMO. just like miami getting 15 was a total sham and cleveland only getting 16.5 the week before that.

This will be a story of big offensive plays- I am on the over! Moss and Harrison! few have found any way to hold them back!. Rushing the QB- Don't see it happening!

Is Harrison at full strength? He still hasn't practiced yet. I think Moss & Wayne will be the big 2 Sunday!

Still has a knee problem but I can not think he would not play!

I agree but not being 100% could be a problem this week!

Very True! Reggie Wayne has almost the same number of catches as randy moss does this season.

Yes, and i'm sure he will have Samuel on his hip all day long!

[Spearit]

Samuel---at Indianapolis (1/21/06): Started at cornerback ... Collected two solo tackles, an interception and led the team with three passes defensed ... Broke up a pass intended for Marvin Harrison along the sideline in the first quarter ... Stepped in front of Harrison and intercepted a Peyton Manning pass that he returned 39 yards for a touchdown, giving the Patriots a 21-3 advantage with 9:25 remaining in the second quarter ... Knocked down a pass intended for Reggie Wayne in the third quarter.

Wayne has a big size advantage on him

They also have Randall Gay and Rodney Harrison both playing in the secondary for this game. They both missed the playoff game and WR Troy Brown was put in a spot of playing defense and coverage. Big difference there!

[kbsooner21]

I think ball control will play a key factor in this one. I like the under as I think both teams will try for sustained drives and keep each other's offense off the field not throw too many deep bombs.
