Manning brothers showdown may not be a shootout
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW YORK GIANTS (1-0)
at INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (0-1)
Kickoff: Sunday, 8:20 p.m. EDT, Line: Indianapolis -5, Total: 48.5
The Manning brothers meet for just the second time in their careers as the Giants visit Indianapolis. The other brotherly clash was in 2006 when Peyton’s Colts edged Eli’s Giants 26-21. Peyton (25-41, 276 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT) got the better of his little brother, who threw for 247 yards, two scores and one INT.
But this game will likely come down to who can run the football better. The Giants will look to control clock with their two-headed rushing attack of Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs. The Colts were outrushed 257 to 44 in their season-opening 34-24 loss to Houston. New York won its opener handily over Carolina (31-18), but the G-Men had four turnovers and racked up 95 yards in penalties.
New York starting TE Kevin Boss will not play due to a concussion, but reports out of Indy say Giants WR Hakeem Nicks will start despite an injured ankle. Nicks and the rest of the Giants don’t have to worry about hard-hitting Colts safety Bob Sanders, who is out 10-12 weeks after having biceps surgery.
The FoxSheets trends are all siding with New York to cover in this game:
Giants coach Tom Coughlin is 30-14 ATS (+14.6 Units) in the first half of the season as the coach of NY GIANTS. The average score was NY GIANTS 26.1, OPPONENT 19.1 - (Rating = 2*).
INDIANAPOLIS is 17-34 ATS (-20.4 Units) in home games after gaining 75 or less rushing yards last game since 1992. The average score was INDIANAPOLIS 21.9, OPPONENT 20.4 - (Rating = 1*).
FoxSheets are also leaning towards the Under for this contest.
INDIANAPOLIS is 8-0 UNDER (+8.0 Units) after allowing 6 or more yards/play in their previous game over the last 3 seasons. The average score was INDIANAPOLIS 21.0, OPPONENT 11.9 - (Rating = 3*).
