Indianapolis at Detroit 1:00 ET
Lions (+) over Colts- My first thoughts when seeing this matchup was that I wanted little to do with it. Of course as the week move forward and I gather information a storyline creeps into your head. The Colts are 4-2 and yet I feel that they have been less than impressive and maybe with Rivers now pitching for them that I expected too much. Indianapolis has the No. 2 defense but that has been hampered by their woeful rushing game a league low 3.6 YPC with only 98 yards on the ground per game. Detroit showed me some I didn't know they had in them, a late drive and win led by Matt Stafford. I've never really been a big fan of the 12-year (that's right 12-years and I'm still waiting) who has let me down in spots like this too many time as the :Lions are 4-9 ATS in their last 14 games as underdogs and 2-6 ATS in their last eight home games. The best thing that they have going on the other side of the ball is that the Colts have covered just once in their last six road games. Somehow, DETROIT!
