I hear what your saying about the line, I'm a Colts fan or more accurately a Payton Manning fan and my gut reaction to that line was to bet my whole roll on it, but when you take a look at the matchup it makes a little more sense...Peyton is not playing like Peyton he has lost three games in a row and thrown the ball like he plays in SF...Colts have one of the worst run defenses in the league going up against one of the nfl's premier RB's...taking that into consideration and that Indy is on the road I think a line of around 3 is about right....I'm still playing Indy to cover but I do see the risk involved, my faith is in Manning turning it around and making the playoffs....but I have been wrong before

its not -2.5 yet... give it time, im sure colts money will come and move the line back up. Going from -3 to -2.5 takes a lot of money to move a line like that and I dont see it happening.

Titans pass rush has been worse than embarrassing their last 2 games. Manning will have time in the pocket to pick a part that woeful titans pass d. I think -6.5 would be more realistic. im all in on the colts on thursday

If tons of money come in on the Colts at -3 then the line will move in the other direction to - 3 1/2 ?
