MNF OVER 51 seems like sucker play, but...

[ElIguana]

I don't see any way Indy doesn't score at least 30 at home against this pathetic Rams' D.

I do see St. Louis scoring 20+ on turf because they almost always do.

The only arguments I am hearing for the under are (1) Indy 0-5 o/u this season and (2) injuries to Holt & Bruce will slow Rams' O down.


Really leaning toward the over 51, but feel like John Q. Public sucker in doing so.

Kodiak on theOVER, Kojak on the UNDER!

What to do, what to do...someboday talk me into/out of the OVER 51?

Thanks Chanman, I saw your thread earlier. I guess I'm being stubborn, but I see Indy getting over 30 and St. Louis getting over 20. GL

I'm thinking the only thing that can keep this game under the total, is if Indy comes out and plays crappy offense like they've most of the season.
But still, it IS MN .. and that alone pumps up everyone to give their best on the field.

I'm no wiseguy but I've been winning lately.. sticking with Colts on the spread, I think it's going to be a blowout.. but as they say, on MN anything can happen, this is the NFL...

GL!

Since i missed out totally on all college football action, i have a massive hungering for some action as soon as possible..

the over looked enticing and i almost pulled the trigger...Until i remembered something important!!! The colts have held at least 5 teams to 10 or less points this year...The colts have changed up their game somewhat so as to play the possession game instead of the bombs away approach they had from years passed!!!


over 51...might be, but i aint playing that!!!!

I am of the strong opinion that if the colts dont cover the 14 points, then this game goes over...If they cover it, then it goes under

If you think Rams offense can score on this above average Colts defense, then bet the over. That's exactly what I'll do because I don't think any defense can stop the Rams on turf. I'm going with rams +14 and over 51. If the Rams can put 21 points, I will either be 2-0 or 1-1. Can't lose! :think:

5.8 pts/game allowed by the Colts. I'm going under.

Also looked at wagerline, sportsinsight, and a few other places...looks like about 67-72% are on over tonight.

Colts have a AVERAGE D ? Not so far this year and with both Bruce and Holt out the Rams are going to need ball control to have any chance of winning, which means pound the ball on the ground, the under would be a better pick.

Bump.

Too bad for everyone who had St. Louis last night. (Not me!) They were rolling until Bulger went out. That guy is underrated. GL this week, everyone.
