Why Indianapolis Colts are a good bet +3?

Since injuries hit the Colts’ roster, Indianapolis has dropped 3-of-4. They have a big shot to turn the awful form around against Tampa Bay on Sunday. The Buccaneers allow 28.8 points per game. T.Y. Hilton is listed day-to-day, which means quarterback Jacoby Brissett could get his top wide receiver back for this. Even if Brissett doesn’t, the Colts’ defense should step it up.

Colts vs Buccaneers Final NFL Betting Analysis

Tampa Bay impressed in their last couple of games. But, Indianapolis is better than either the Jaguars or the Falcons.

In Week 13, the Colts’ defense played Tennessee tough until the second half. The Titans scored 31 against Indianapolis. Tennessee’s offense, though, is on fire. Tampa’s offense has played well. It hasn’t faced a quality defense like Indianapolis’.

There are a couple of other things to consider. If Brissett gets Hilton back, the Colts will flourish. Also, Tampa quarterback Jameis Winston didn’t throw a pick in the victory over the Jags. No way Winston escapes 8 quarters without at least 1 interception. Back the Colts.
