indianapolis colts 36 vs minnesota vikings 39

ANALYSIS

Jonathan Taylor and the Colts head to Minnasotta to take on Justin Jefferson and the Vikings.

Fresh off a bye week, the Colts have a tough matchup against a Vikings squad that will be hungry for a bounce back win. Two weeks ago against the Cowboys, the Colts were humiliated as the Cowboys scored touchdown after touchdown in an embarrassing 54-19 loss. Alec Peirce was the sole bright spot of that game, as he hauled in 4 balls for 86 yards and a TD. Jonathan Taylor will have a tough task against a defense that just held D’Andre Swift to 21 yards rushing.

After being surprise underdogs to the Lions last week, the Vikings were not even able to cover in the 34-23 loss. Dalvin Cook was completely shut down, running 15 times for just 23 yards. Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson did everything they could in the game. Cousins threw for 425 yards and 2 TDs. Jefferson caught 11 balls for 223 yards. If you did not know already, Jefferson is the best receiver in the league.

Indianapolis come in as +4 road underdogs on Saturday. Indianapolis are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games. The total has gone UNDER in 14 of Indianapolis’ last 18 games. Indianapolis are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games against Minnesota.
