Indianapolis (-4˝) at Cleveland

Why's the spread so small here? Considering how bad the Browns looked this past week against a weak opponent, and the Colts coming off a win against a better opponent than the Browns, why such a small spread?

Is it just because they're on the road?

I think the brown may win SU or at least cover the point .. Here is my thought... Westcoast travel, short week prepair for the colt and when is the Brown last win at home... I think they will get up on this game. By the way, i would not put SD over the bills. Looks at their records therefore the colts didn't play with better opponent than the Browns. Just my 2 cents.

weell colts won as DOG now favored and thats automatic fade 65% losers 22 years in all NFL games after WINNING as a DOG then chalked next !

GOING a complete flip from +3 to - 41/2 pts is a 7 1/2 point swing

however QUINN'S index Finger is still slightly broken so weather will be factor

high gusty winds will kill offensive fire power and it becomes a ground game

Browns defenseive rankings aint to pretty Colts should whip em easy

4 1/2 points seems fishy tho

back to back road games for COLTS and they are happy revenging playoff loss to chargers if i read them right this a NO cover spot for PONIES

lots of miles traveld from indy TO SD then back home to INDY and back out west to CLEVE OHIO which i think is central time zone

LETS HOPE THE DOG has fight left in HIM or it could be a blowout !

Colts -4.5 is my Game of the Year.
I live in Cleveland and the team is an absolute mess. Weather is supposed to be lousy Sunday but that won't be enough to help hapless Browns. This is as bad as the first year they came back to town. Fans are ready to burn down the stadium.
Peyton is hitting his stride and this is a horrible secondary he is going up against.

COLTS!!!!!!!!!
GAME OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!!

Agreed. Line odd but Clev cooked. Winslow and Edwards look horrible, Lewis not doing anything and their D sucks. Indy has everything to play for battling for wildcard seeding. this could be like a 24-13 type game.
