After being slight home favorites for their Week 10 contest against the Indianapolis Colts, the Tennessee Titans will open as underdogs for the rematch in Week 12 at Lucas Oil Stadium this Sunday.

According to BetMGM, the Titans are four-point underdogs to the Colts, who emerged victorious over Tennessee when the two met in the aforementioned game a few weeks ago.

Spread: Colts -4

Money Line: Colts -189 / Titans +160

Over/Under: 49.5

In the last meeting between the Titans and Colts, head coach Mike Vrabel’s squad failed in all three phases of the game and suffered a total meltdown, leading to a 34-17 Indianapolis victory.

Indianapolis Colts Odds

However, the Titans were able to bounce back in Week 11 by notching a huge 30-24 overtime win over the Baltimore Ravens in a game in which Tennessee trailed 21-10 at one point.

Meanwhile, the Colts are riding high after grabbing their own come-from-behind win over the Green Bay Packers. Indianapolis overcame a 28-14 deficit to force overtime, where the Colts eventually sealed the deal.

There’s a lot riding on this game. The Colts sit in first place in the AFC South currently, but the Titans are right there with the same record. Indy’s victory over Tennessee in Week 10 gives them the advantage currently thanks to head-to-head record.

The Titans can erase that immediately and take over first place with a win, which would then mean the tiebreaker is based on divisional record. Should the Colts win, they would have a stranglehold on the division, as Indianapolis would own a better record and have the head-to-head record locked down.

To say 2020 was a success for the Indianapolis Colts might depend on who you ask. They were able to secure only their second playoff spot since 2015, but they were beaten by the Bills in the Wild Card round, sending them home earlier than Indy wanted. The good news, rookie Jonathan Taylor proved worthy of being the lead back and the potential to be a star. Other young players like Quenten Nelson, Khari Willis, and Julian Blackmon established themselves as dependable pieces to build a team around. Now, it’s time to shift focus to the offseason.

The new direction begins with Carson Wentz, who was acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for conditional picks. Wentz is reunited with his old offensive coordinator Frank Reich, who led Wentz to MVP-conversation numbers in 2016 and 2017. However, plenty of questions still remain for the 2021 Colts, including which defensive players they will retain; stars Justin Houston, Denico Autry, and Xavier Rhodes are all set to become free agents.

Can the Colts continue their winning ways under their third veteran quarterback in three seasons? Will the Wentz project work out in Indianapolis? There’s plenty more to unfold with this team moving forward.

Colts prop bets

Prop bets are based on individual performance, typically surrounding players. Last season, Jonathan Taylor was a favorite for prop betting. For example, Taylor’s projected rushing total in the Colts’ Week 13 matchup against the Texans was 79.5 yards. Those who thought he would rush for 80 or more yards bet the over while those who thought he would fail to rush for 80 yards bet the under. Taylor picked up 91 yards in the win and those who bet the over cashed out.

Colts futures odds

Futures are long-term bets that can range from an offseason to a full season (or beyond). Team win totals, award winners, and player performance are common futures. For example:

2020 Odds to win NFL DROY

  • Chase Young -110
  • Patrick Queen +450
  • Kenneth Murray +1000
  • Jaylon Johnson +1500

This line for the Defensive Rookie of the Year would often be bet before the season starts. Futures allow for bettors to capitalize on players they think are favorites to win awards long before the odds shift away from their favor. For example, Queen opened with odds of +900 to win the DROY award after the NFL Draft; his odds will shift as the season develops based on his performance for the Ravens defense.

Colts Super Bowl LVI odds

After agreeing to trade for QB Carson Wentz, the Colts’ odds to win Super Bowl LVI increased from +2800 to +2200. Those odds are similar to Cleveland (+2000) and Seattle (+2500).

Colts AFC South odds

The Indianapolis Colts were not able to secure the AFC South in 2020. The division was won by the Titans.

How to bet on the Indianapolis Colts

Moneyline

The moneyline is the simplest of bets, decided by the straight-up winner and loser of each game. Consider the following example:

Indianapolis Colts Odds To Win Super Bowl

  • Colts -115
  • Browns +130

The Colts are considered favorites in this matchup (indicated by -115), requiring a $115 bet to win $100 (plus the initial bet back). The Browns are the underdog in this matchup, paying out $230 total for a $100 bet ($130 in winnings). How much either team wins or loses by does not matter in moneyline betting, the payout remains the same.

Point spread

Betting on the point spread is determinant on how many points a team wins or loses by. Take the following example:

  • Colts -6.5 (-110)
  • Texans +6.5 (-110)

In this example, Indianapolis is favored by 6.5 points, indicated by “-6.5.” If the Colts win the game 24-17, the Colts (-6.5) win the bet and would have a total payout of $19.09 on a $10 bet ($9.09 in profit). If the Texans keep the game within seven and lose 24-20, the Texans (+6.5) would win, and the payout would be the same as listed above.

Point total (over/under)

The point total refers to the over/under line set by books. This number projects the total number of points scored in a game and, like prop betting, is bet whether one thinks the score will go over or under the set point total. For example, the Colts’ Week 11 game against the Packers had a projected point total of 54.5 points. The Colts won the game 34-31 in overtime, resulting in 65 combined points. Those who bet the over on the point total in this game would cash out.

A strong defense and potent offense built on the run game caused the Colts to have pretty middle-of-the-road point totals in 2020 (often between 52 and 56 points). Moving into 2021, whoever starts at quarterback for Indy will determine their point totals. Barring them landing a star quarterback in free agency or via trade, the Colts will likely have lower point totals as the new signal caller gets integrated into the offensive system.

In-play and live betting

Sometimes, the most thrilling and rewarding bets are bets made while games are being played. These are referred to as live bets or in-play bets. Odds are ever-changing during games, which would prove to be fruitful for sharp and prepared bettors. For example, if the Colts (-245) were heavily favored against the Jets (+210) before kickoff, a payout on a $10 bet on the Colts to win would win just $4.08.

However, say the Colts fell to a big 27-6 deficit in the first half despite controlling the overall game (due to costly turnovers or a special teams gaffe). Odds may swing in favor of the Jets, who may be a -110 favorite at halftime. Taking the Colts to come back and win the game could present plus-odds (say, +130). Should a bettor take Indianapolis (+130) at halftime and the Colts pull off the comeback, winners would win $13 instead of $4.08 (plus the initial $10 bet).

This could also be an effective way to “hedge” your bet; say a bettor took the Jets (+210) in that game, but Indianapolis jumps out to a 21-0 first quarter lead and is controlling the overall feel of the game, bettors could hedge by throwing some money down on Indianapolis (-270) to return some of the inevitably-lost bet.

Parlays and teasers

You can always string bets together in the form of parlays or teasers. Usually during busy Sundays, bettors can parlay several teams to win or cover against the spread and if all bets are successful, the payouts are multiplied. Teasers function similarly, except they allow bettors to move each point spread to a more favorable line in exchange for diminished odds.

Colts 2020 recap

Record: 11-5

Record ATS: 8-8

Over/under record: 9-7

Under new quarterback Philip Rivers, the Colts were able to collect an impressive 11 wins; it took all 11 of those wins to secure a spot in the AFC Playoffs. Wins this season came over 13-3 Green Bay and AFC South champion Tennessee, but ultimately the Colts couldn’t outpace the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card round. The Colts finished eighth in the NFL in scoring offense (27.9) and 11th in scoring defense (22.9) but came up just short in the AFC South race.

If “good, not great” was embodied in an NFL team, it would be the 2020 Indianapolis Colts. They beat the opponents in games they were favored (Jaguars, Jets, Bengals) but couldn’t always get it done against playoff teams (Browns, Steelers, Ravens). Vegas had the right projection of this team, as they finished 8-8 against the spread and 9-7 against the point total.

Colts 2021 offseason moves

Key free agents: Jacoby Brissett (QB), T.Y. Hilton (WR), Justin Houston (EDGE), Denico Autry (EDGE), Malik Hooker (S), Xavier Rhodes (CB), Anthony Walker Jr. (LB), T.J. Carrie (CB), Al-Quadin Muhammed (EDGE), Zach Pascal (WR)

Draft pick position needs: QB, OT, CB, WR

Bottom line, the Colts have work to do. Their strong defense sees plenty of staple playmakers hit the free agent market, led by names like Justin Houston, Denico Autry, and Xavier Rhodes. At 32 years old and $15 million in guarantees owed, Houston will likely find a new home this offseason as the team looks to secure Autry ($6.5 million). While it’s not likely that every player will be re-signed, team-friendly deals and market value could allow Indianapolis to piece that defense back together.

With longtime playmaker T.Y. Hilton likely not returning to the team, the Colts could look to players like Minnesota’s Rashod Bateman or LSU’s Terrace Mitchell Jr. Other players include Notre Dame offensive tackle Liam Eichenburg or Alabama’s Alex Leatherwood. A longshot possibility includes South Carolina corner Jaycee Horn, though he will likely be gone by the time Indy is on the clock. The likely answer to the Colts’ draft strategy can be pointed back to adding weapons and support around newly-acquired Carson Wentz.
