WORLD CHAMP ROB V: NFL DIVISIONAL GAME OF THE YEAR
(NFL) Indianapolis vs. Denver, 01/11/2015 11:40 AM, Score: 24 - 13
Point Spread: -7.00 | -115.00 Denver (Home)
Result: Loss
The Divisional Game is on Denver over the Colts. Game 120 at 4:40 eastern. Denver in 100.000 simulations was on average a 9 point winner. The Broncos have a solid advantage here with rest and getting to play a Colts team that must travel in January to a cold weather location, never a good thing for a dome homer. In fact these teams are 0-12 if they have revenge and are off a win. Home teams like the Broncos are solid playoff investments in their first home game if they lost as a favorite last year in the playoffs. The last 35 years these teams have won 53 of 60/ P. Manning had an extra week to rest his arm and the Broncos are 16-3 to the spread with 2+ weeks rest. They are also 12-2 ats vs an opponent that has 7.5 or less average punt return yards. The Colts can be one dimensional and may not run the ball well which will force them to throw pretty much on every down. In week 1 they were getting destroyed here before Denver took their foot off the pedal and wound up winning by 7. When the Colts dont show up they get blasted, like they did in Dallas and this could happen here. Teams with revenge that won and covered at least 2 straight as a favorite have failed to cover 27 of 35 times. Were Doing Denver here today.
