Colts Favored By A Touchdown Against Jets

The Indianapolis Colts are -7-point favorites against the New York Jets tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN, but strong trends also suggest that it is the Colts that will be walking away victors and cover the spread.

Since the team has been helmed by Andrew Luck, the Colts are 14-1 against the spread following a loss, they are 0-1 at the moment. The Colts are 15-2 against the spread when they fail to cover the spread, like they did in Week 1.

Digging even deeper, Luck, specifically, is 22-6 against the spread when he fails to get over 27 points in his previous outing.

The Jets also have one trend that matters in their favor. They are 5-0 against the spread against their last five conference opponents.

The total is set at 47 points. The Colts favori the UNDER in 19-9 when Luck is coming off poor games. The Jets, on the other hand, like the OVER. When they have scored more than 30 points in their prior games, they went 13-4 on the OVER.

With the Colts favored by a touchdown, most bettors feel they will easily cover that spread. Over Indy’s last 28 games they are have covered in 21 of those contests. The total is a bit more difficult to call with both teams trending in opposite directions.
