Something 2 think about for MNF

[10DimeBry]

FYI New England hasnt been a home dog in 3 years. how will they respond???

[frankb03]

why would it change tonight? Just because they are 7-0, Bry is right about there schedule. Bellicheck owns Manning and it's gonna stay that way IMO.

It might change tonight because this Colts team is better than the previous Colt teams that lost to NE. Yes, the Colts have played an easy schedule. I still think they are vastly improved on D.

It might change tonight because this Pats team is NOwhere near as good as the previous Pats team. They are a banged up team. Their defense is very suspect.

I think too many sport fans and bettors live in the past.

You may be right Frank. I just cant bet against the Pats when they are getting points. They are still a VERY good team. They have the mental edge over NE. Do you think that they dont hear all this talk about Indy coming into there house tonight and beating up on them. Manning could never beat the gators and he has never been able to beat NE. The pats a home dog??? Sorry but that makes me laugh, the pats are going to play well tonight IMO.

I agree with ya Frank. Indy's D has held rb's to under 100 yards this season. I believe Indy's improved defense is what makes the difference tonight. Pats are still a good team but there are too many holes in their defense to stop indy from moving the ball.

I think both teams score a lot - the over looks good.

Good discussion. Thanks, Bry.

your just bitter cause i'm taller than you and i have hair on my head....lol

I think the injuries catch up with NE tonight.

Yes, NE has had the right scheme for Manning and Co.,
but I think the personnel may be lacking 1 or 2 guys.

At 3 1/2 or 4, Vegas is screaming for us to take NE.

I'm up for the week, so I have a little more balls
to go with Indy.

Good Luck to You on your play

Very True! This is why I might bet the Pats. Otherwise, I'll pass on the game.

Definitely a good thread, I will share my amateur thoughts:

I agree that the colts D hasn't been tested yet, the teams they have played haven't been offensive juggernauts, for example look how fast the rams put up points on them before bulger is taken out. However, I still think they are improved on the defensive side of the ball, and the patriots offense, even at home on a sunday night, looked anemic. I don't think you can easily overlook how lame NE has looked on offense, either.

Yes, peyton has been around a while, but NO WAY would I call this guy a choke artist. I believe the more he has lost these big games (mostly to the patriots), the more of a fire is burning inside of him. That guy is smart as hell, a hell of a competitor, and the best at his position. What a combination! I fully believe peyton has been preparing himself for THIS GAME the entire season.

The other thing I think is that how many times do we talk around here about going against a streak in certain sports? I, for one, love to ride streaks in baseball, but not necessarily in football. The books are too smart for that and make lines for a reason. I LOVE bucking the trend of how many times the colts have lost consecutively ATS and SU to the patriots.

The Colts were installed at 3 point favorites, interesting. Now I see the line at 4.5 at some places, THAT is what scares me. Also, look at how many home dogs did not cover this week, and now you have the public jumping all over a road fav in the colts on MNF @ NE. That is scary. No way would I want to ride along with all these mofo's chasing money.

IMO, very tough game to call, I definitely side with the colts as I feel they are going to get it done tonight, but NO WAY would I lay the points at this point.

BT,

the more i look at this game the more i dont like the pats. But the public is all over indy and its MNF. I might pass on a side play and look into the total on this one.

[BigTicket]

I could see the colts winning by 1 or 2 tonight, listen to me I am attempting to predict the future! haha GL Bry if you come up with somethin solid on the total let me know
