Well, maybe not. If you look a bit deeper you will see that outside of that dome they play in the Colts went 5-3 on the road scoring an average of 32 points in the wins against teams that were a combined 17 GAMES UNDER .500!!!! Hardly a team to worry about on the road, hardly. So the win against Indy is not as impressive as it would appear now was it?
You just don't hear that stat on ESPN every 5 minutes like you hear how impressive Payton Manning is huh, when in reality outside the comforts of home that offense is pretty average now isn't it? Two of their road losses were to KC and Denver, a combined .500 the other loss was obviously to NE.
Ever ask yourself even one time in your life how the hell Vegas wins every week when the bettors get to pick which side they want, even once wonder? Well now you know, because Joe Public only bets based on what ESPN tells them, and last week's game was a perfect example, the public drove that line to a 4 or 5 point swing some place in favor of the Colts and they were never in that game, were they?
Laugh all you want, but the fact of the matter is that the NE win over Indy was not all that impressive when you get right down to it and THEY are the ones in for a tougher game than they played last week.
To be continued.......
