New England is -21 this week

And I suspect the public will hammer them, too.

I was right.
According to Robert Walker, the Director of the Race and Sports Book at MGM Mirage in Vegas., the highest anyone can find is Steelers-Bucs in 1976. Pittsburgh was defending Super Bowl champ, the Bucs were first-year expansion babies who finished 0-14. The line was 24. The Steelers won, 42-0.

21 is an awful lot of points against a normal coach. But Belli loves to run up the score which means it's a pass for me. Over might be good as NE might hit 50 on their own.

Indy doesn't care about a win at this point, Maybe the last game of the season just to keep from having a Detroit Lions year, I mean who the fuk wants to go 0-17. But until they have Luck wrapped up in the draft they will continue to lose week after week. with the expection of the defensive coordinator everone elses jobs are safe for now, You have one person to be the sole provider for a team, and this is a great example. 2 years ago they where debating wheather or not to let Payton play for the perfect season and now look at what their options are... Play or lay down for a draft pick. Fuking sad.. You should always have a back up plan if your star player goes down. I rpomise it will be different with Luck. If everything clicks with him after 2 years, Payton will be traded. I don't know how much time he has left int he NFL, but he will never be what he was after an injury like that.

I read (twitter, I think) that there have been 9 games where the spread was 20+. Fav 9-0 SU, 2-7 ATS.

New England Easy here. Everyone is going to think that 21 is a lot of points and take Indy, but You would never put a number like that up there is it wasn't good possiblity. New England is notorious for blowing teams out. Titans a good example. Bella just kept scoring no matter what final was like 62-0.

I don't think they are letting other teams win. I think that is a ridiculous train of thought invented by the so called 'suck for luck' movement. They are 0 wins with the next closest 2 wins. They can get a win and still get 1st pick.
And to think they'd save that magical win for the last game of the season.... nope. As hard as it is to believe they really are trying and really are that bad. I don't have any faith in their head coach. I believe he was gifted a team and a set of plays and a true head coach on the field in Peyton Manning and that's what's missing. Manning could call the play on the field and it'd be the right one and then he'd make it work. No team should degrade this much by literally 1 player.

This game? Yeah they're boned. No way do they come close to the pats. In foxboro good luck (pun?). Pats will do what the saints did and beat them 62-10.

Indy's best chances at a win will be titans and jags.

According to PreGame.com: If Colts played at Green Bay, Packers would be 25-point favorite (would be biggest spread in NFL history)
