Betting on the Indianapolis Colts:
The Colts have now victimized two NFC powers after gritting out a comeback win against the Seahawks in Week 5. Down by five going into the fourth, Andrew Luck delivered two touchdown passes in the fourth quarter of that game to power Indianapolis past the Seahawks, 34-28. It was the Colts’ third straight win against the spread this season – they were 2.5-point underdogs vs. Seattle – after failing to cover in their first two games.
The passing game hasn’t been great for the Colts so far this season only ranking 24th with 220.4 passing yards per game; Andrew Luck likewise sits in the 24th spot in passing yards per game. But what they lack on air, they compensate down on the ground by rushing 142.0 a game – 4th best in the league. However, top rusher Ahmad Bradshaw is due to have a season-ending neck surgery. Taking the reins now is new running back Trent Richardson and Donald Brown.
The Colts are 3-1 SU and ATS in their last road games. Also take notice of Indianapolis’ five-road game streak of going UNDER.
Bet now on the Indianapolis Colts.
Betting on the San Diego Chargers:
It has been an on-and-off season for the Chargers so far this season. After a rousing victory against Dallas in Week 4, the Chargers fell to Oakland in their next game, which saw them give the Raiders a total of 423 yards. It was far from the defensive effort San Diego put out against the Cowboys, who the team limited to just 319 yards.

QB Philip Rivers spearheads San Diego’s fifth-ranked air attack that averaged 311.2 a game. Rivers himself is No. 5 in the NFL in passing yards per game with 322 and tied for second (only behind Peyton Manning) in touchdowns with 13.
The Chargers are 5-1 SU and 6-1 ATS in their last 6 and 7 games against Indianapolis, respectively.
