Indianapolis Colts -6
vs Cincinnati Bengals +6
Total over/under: 47
Dungy's taking no chances on getting upset, which in any case seems unlikely in the Colts' remaining schedule - with the possible exception of the Pittsburgh game Nov. 28. That day, much will depend on the injury status of Steeler quarterback Ben Roethlisberger.
For the second week in a row, Roethlisberger, who has had recent knee surgery, was among the missing Sunday as the Steelers romped over Cleveland, 34-21. Replacement Charlie Batch, who was playing well, also broke a hand, bringing in Tommy Maddox, who hasn't played well lately. Everything seems to be falling into place for Manning.
The Colts are closing in on becoming the 14th NFL team with 400 victories. The Colts will be looking to produce the 15th 10+ victory season in franchise history, and it would mark the first time the club has done it in four consecutive seasons. A win this Sunday would give Tony Dungy his 7th double-digit seasonal victory total in 10 years as a head coach. Cincinnati observed its bye week last Sunday.
The Colts and Bengals are meeting for the second time in 2005. Cincinnati posted a 38-0 preseason home win over the Colts on September 3. This is the first regular-season match between the clubs since October 6, 2002, when the Colts took a 28-21 home win. The league series stands 12-8 in favor of the Colts.
Prediction[/b]: Expect the Colts to pummel Palmer and the Bengals in the same way as they drubbed the Patriots last week. Colts to win by more than seven points.
