Week 4 Nfl Football
- Thread starter THE WIZZARD
- Start date
I will be in attendance and expect Peyton Manning to feel the pressure of playing in front of his hometown crowd. Peyton has always floundered in pressure situations. He rewrote the New Orleans area record books in his 4 years @ Newman High and I am certain that he wants to impress. Indy is not as good as their record indicates and the Saints, although losing 5 defensive starters since the last preseason game, are not as bad as they have played.
Look for an offensive explosion by Brooks and company.
I am on Saints +2.
GL Wizz, keep up the good work.............

I'm leaning towards N.O. this game too, but you think the saints will get some offense going. Seems like nothing has been rolling for them as of late.

LMFAO
:lol:
Ya, the Colts 'D' has been battered through the first 3 weeks.....
6 pts to Cleveland
7 pts to Tenn.
13 to Jax.
26 pts. in 3 games ain't too shabby my friend...
Now, on the other hand..the Aints have given up:
27 pts. to the Seahawks
10 pts. to the Texans
27 pts. to the Titans
64 pts. in 3 games...
Yes, I do believe that the Saints will "explode" this weekend...but I think it'll be the def. coordinator doing the exploding when he sees Edge run wild and Peyton pick apart that pathetic secondary....
Good luck w/ your wager.

Pacerfan,
If I wager based on what happened the last 3 weeks, I would not be a winning capper. And believe me when I say that I am not trying to knock your team. Just my honest opinion......
Best of luck to you.

No offense taken...
Just do not see the Saints winning here.
This Colts team is much different than in years past. They are now more a complete team that plays both offense AND defense.
The Saints have looked like a lost puppy out there the first 3 games...
Don't get me wrong, it is the NFL and anything can happen on any given sunday, but I do think that the Colts will take advantage of the Sunday Night spotlight...

imo, sports betting is based on situations. i think that because indy will be on the road & has covered 3 times in a row, i also like the saints, with a lean towards the over.
good luck guys

It's true, Indy is a bad road team - on grass surfaces. They're back on the artificial stuff this sunday and I'm curious as to what their road record ATS on artificial is. Anybody know?
Initial leans to Indy and Under here.
I think there is quite a bit of value on Indy Under's until the linemaker/public catches up to the fact this is not the Indy team of 2, 3 & 4 years ago. This team has a defence. In particular a very good secondary. Tough to pass on, average to run on at the moment. Nolan touched on this last week. And week by week Indy is playing a more conservative, ball-control type offence. Edgerrin's looking better all the time. Marvin Harrison isn't getting the looks he was earlier with double and triple coverage. Reggie Wayne's performance won't be duplicated this week. The game still went Under.
New Orleans' strength is passing, but I think the Colts can neutralize them. As for the running game...Deuce McAllister is having a hell of a time moving the ball. His O-line is getting pushed around and isn't giving him the lanes to run. This is where the Saints MUST take advantage if they hope to win this game. And with their running struggles of this past weekend I think the Saints will be even more focused on getting the running game working. The Colts won't be as effective as the Titans at stopping the run. So I see the Saints running more than in earlier games, chewing up clock as they go.
I don't think that will be enough to get them the win, but I do think it bodes well for the Under.

anyone hear

espn salisbury and cohort lambast NO after tenn debacle ... went on and on as bad as Ive ever heard ... said they should be ashamed of effort and picking up their pay checks; if any of them heard this it had to sting, which U know is in the NO papers ....
Dungy loves low scoring games and i see this going under too .. but expect huge effort by saints, dont know if I can back them

I'm right there with you. I posted that this morning under Week 4. NO doesn't have it together enough to beat a very solid football team. And that's the difference between them this year and years past, they don't have to throw the ball all over the field to stay in games. They're D does that for them, but that isn't something the gen. public has picked up on yet, I don't think. This game should stay under, as long as NO doesn't stay close in the first quarter and a half. Ind can compete with them if they get in a shootout, but I don't see that happening. On the road, away favorite covering, I have to say it'll go under. Anybody know what the trend is there? Away favorites who cover, if the total goes over or under?
GL!
VINNIE: AS U KNOW WE HAVE THE ROUGHEST TIME AGAINST
MCNAIR AND THE TITANS.....I WILL DEFINITELY STAY
AWAY FROM THIS GAME AND JUST CHEER FOR THE
STEELERS TO PULL OUT THE VICTORY!
THEIR WAS ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO WAS PUTTING BUFF +3 IN MY THREAD LAST WEEK WHEN I POST MIA EARLY.......THINK THIS WILL BE SAME RESULT........NO BOUNCES BACK AFTER HORRIBLE DISPLAY LAST WEEK........NO D-FENSE IS BAD BUT INDY OFFENSE ISN'T GOOD RIGHT NOW AND I THINK DUECE HAS A BREAK OUT GAME.......DUECE AND HORN CERTAINTLY DIDN'T SHOW UP LAST WK.
GOOD LUCK TO ALL.
COUPLE MORE TO COME.

A little more....
Public is pounding Indy, 3-0 SU out of the gates. New Orleans is 1-2, with the win coming to the tExxons. Indy is 0-4 in their last 4 meetings with the 'Aints, and 0-3 in their last few trips down to the land of Mardi Gras.
Some more bad trends for Colt backers...
Indy:
1-6 ATS as RF off SU win
1-5 ATS away vs. NFC opp.
4-11 ATS off Conf opponent (sep)
Good Luck!

I can't prove it but...
I remeber a stat that has Indy losing it's 4th game when they start 3-0.
Something like that....anyone?

Since '93 the Colts have started 3-0 only once, followed by a win SU/ATS. They also, in a different year started out 3-0 ATS, followed by an ATS loss.
