The Indianapolis Colts are in trouble, deep trouble. They got close against the Cowboys, but the seventh loss this season marks doom. The Dolphins are coming to town, so this might be their best shot at win number three on the year. FanDuel Sportsbook favors the Colts to start with a 2.5-point spread advantage.
The money line is -138 while the over/under sits at 43.5.
The Colts had a rough Sunday. As bad as it was, they still had a legitimate chance to pull out a victory. The offense struggled mightily
in the first half but put it all together to take a lead with less than two minutes in regulation. The defense that couldn’t stop the run to save their lives, gave up a late bomb and touchdown to sink the Colts to 2-7.
Speaking of seven, the Dolphins have that many losses too. The Dolphins hung tough against Detroit, finding themselves down 6-3 at the half. Malik Willis’ stat line won’t win many games, though, as he had 128 yards with no touchdowns, an interception, and three sacks. An uninspiring effort made for an uninspiring final score at 19-9.
Neither team wants to pick up loss number eight, at least not yet. The Colts are sinking fast. With their first-round pick belonging to the Jets, they would prefer it doesn’t reach higher than it needs to. The team is entering “pride” season, as that is all that may be left to play for. Even a win against the Dolphins may do little to inspire confidence at this point.
