Houston Texans at Indianapolis Colts
Monday, 8:35 pm Eastern – ESPN
A battle for the top of the AFC South is on tap for Monday night as the Indianapolis Colts host the
Houston Texans. It is a rematch of the NFL betting season opener in which Arian Foster ran all
over the Colts in a 34-24 win. It should be an entertaining game as both teams have high-
powered offenses and suspect defenses. This is a very important game for the Colts because if
they lose they would fall a game back of Houston and they would have been swept by the
Texans.
Indianapolis is a 5.5 point favorite with a total of 51 at SBG Global.
The Colts do have some injury issues as tight end Dallas Clark is out for the season while wide
receiver Austin Collie is out for at least a few weeks. The Colts still have Reggie Wayne and
Pierre Garcon for Peyton Manning to throw to and Anthony Gonzalez returns this week. The
running back situation could be more of a problem for the Colts. Joseph Addai is out so it will be
up to Donald Brown and Mike Hart to fill in.
The Texans suffered an injury of their own that is going under the radar a little bit. Middle
linebacker DeMeco Ryans was injured and is now out for the season. It will force Brian Cushing
to move into the middle and while he is a great linebacker it may take him some time to adjust.
It could be the last team to have the ball in this NFL betting game wins. The Texans can’t stop
th
anyone as they are dead last in yards allowed per game and 29 in points allowed. The Colts are
th
21st overall and 15 in points allowed. Indianapolis has not been swept by a division opponent
since 2002. The Texans have never won at Indianapolis and they are facing a Colts team that is
53-13 at home since 2002.
