Colts Easily Covering When Facing Titans

The Indianapolis Colts season has been a complete disaster, but they still have the smallest of hopes of making the playoffs (they would probably have better odds at winning the lottery). There is one thing you can trust with the Colts, and that is not Clipboard Jesus, as Indy has gone 7-1 ATS in their past eight against the Tennessee Titans. 

Shark Bites
  • The UNDER is 15-7 in the Colts past 22 games.
  • The Titans are 0-6-1 ATS in their past seven contests.
  • Dwight Lowry recorded two of his four interceptions this season against the Titans.

How bad has the Colts season been? Well, they will likely be starting Charlie Whitehurst at quarterback Sunday. Whitehurst has throwing a combined 32 passes this season with a 50 percent completion percentage and one interception. Running back Frank Gore is coming off his second two-touchdown performance of the season last week, with the first coming in the first game against the Titans in Week 3.

The Titans have been terrible in their own right recently with the club losing their last three games by a combined score of 97-30. Not so surprisingly, two of those games saw Zach Mettenberger start under center with the LSU-alum throwing three touchdowns and three picks.
