The Tennessee Titans should be able to cover the -3.5 spread vs. the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Try to get this one at -3 if you can, although most online sportsbook now had the Titans at -3.
Although the Colts have won 3 of the last 4 in this series, including the last meeting (one of their rare wins last season), the home team has won 3 straight. The home team has actually won 4 of the last 5 games in the series. Tennessee is 3-1 ATS vs. the Colts in the last 4 meetings.
Tennessee is starting to get its act together, winning the its last two games including one against Pittsburgh and another last week in Buffalo.
Against The Spread over the past three seasons, Indianapolis is just 0-6 Against The Spread in road games versus division opponents over the last 3 seasons. They are 1-10 ATS when playing against a team with a losing record over the last 3 seasons.
I like the Titans here at -3.5. Bet This Game Now Here
Seattle vs. Detroit caught my eye as the Seahawks have gone 14-4 ATS as an underdog over the last 2 seasons. They are also playing better on the road these days. This is a very competitive division with Seattle right in the thick of things so expect this team to be revved up against a Detroit squad that has been underperforming of late.
They are also 13-5 ATS vs. conference opponents over the last 2 seasons. The Lions, on the other hand, are just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 vs. NFC.
Detroit is 2-8-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record and they are 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 games overall.
Get this one at Seattle +2.5 if you still can. WagerWeb was offering it at press time here.
New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys is another game that catches my attention as Dallas has only gone 4-12 Against The Spread vs. conference opponents over the last 2 seasons while the Giants are 9-1 ATS in road games when playing with 6 or less days rest over the last 2 seasons.
Did I mention the “revenge factor”?
Take the Giants at -1 if that number is still available. Some books have them at -2.5 though. The public is all over New York at around 85 percent. Bet This Game Now Here.
