Indianapolis (+5 1/2) at Cincinnatti (12-8-13)

[oldunclemark]

over-under  at 41...

 

 

This isn't the best matchup for Indy...Colts 'O' vs Bengals 'D'

 

Colts are a much better team at home.....and the Bengals need this win.

 

 

Colts have no pressure but they don't open up the offense so the 'under' is good here

[colts_100nascar17fan]

Im suprised its that close, I see us losing like 30-9

[CanuckColt]

Meh...5-1/2 seems conservative...should be higher.

[oldunclemark]

Andy Dalton really has to have a mediocre day

[Imped]

Quite worried about this game.

[HtownColt]

Taking the Colts with or without the points doesn't matter

[CanuckColt]

Im suprised its that close, I see us losing like 30-9

Yeah, something like that...probably the same old script...Cinci takes the opening drive down for 7...Colts get the ball, Pep tinkers with the run game, Colts kick..Cinci takes the ball down the field for 7, now 14-0...Colts get the ball, Pep screws around with the run game, Colts kick...Cinci gets the ball and drives for another score, maybe just a FG....Colts get the ball, Pep now decides it is time for some passes, Luck gets sacked, Colts kick...Cinci gets the ball.....and on and on and on...Pep's script.

[AllYouNeedIsLuck]

I'm never gonna go against the Colts so I'd say take the Colts, score will be 31-30 Colts

[MTC]

I can't see us defeating the Bengals.. at their stadium. If we were home, it would be a different story.

[danlhart87]

Bengals 23 Colts 14

[NDcolt]

Wow let's just pack up & go home & forfeit rest of season!!!! C'mon don't lose the faith PATHETIC!

Colts 31

As good as we've played against teams that should beat us I still could see us taknig this W. Vontae is back playing good ball again, Toler is expected to be back**Knocs on wood**, and we just might see more of Rogers which I'm hoping will give us a spark.

Anything can happen with the above forecast, folks.

With weather like that, we can depend on our running game to see us through..........uh oh.

Canada must be a dark and depressing place

[Caleb3502]

It depends which Bengals show up.  The one that lost to the Browns in Week 4 or the one that beat the Browns in Week 11.  It also depends which Colts show up.  It's going to be another nail-biter with tons of threads saying the Colts are horrible and should give up until next year, but if the "Good" Colts show up it should be a W.

Canada is a great place.....Indy on the road is 'dark and depressing' at this time.

[CVDGxRAZE]

i hope its a close game,,,,rather have a close game than us getting blown out.........but i have faith that the colts will be motivated and start to step up on offense and defense...........i hope we win Colts 27- Bengals 21

[Hammer]

Colts at home since the Denver game, hasn't exactly been a brilliant beacon of light either.

[Hammer]

I hope you're just being a homer. However, if you're actually betting that way, I'd like some of it.

[James]

Bengals are much better than the Colts. Their d-line will feast on our putrid o-line and since we have no receiving threats it'll be an easy game for the Bengals DBs.

Bengals by a couple of scores.

Looking out of my hotel window....

BHC shuts curtain and walks away, saluting JVan...

Worst summary ever.

No mention of 'DBH drops ball'...

Colts win in a semi-shootout... 31-24

Dang, that's a lot of FG's for Adam!

[oldunclemark]

semi-shootout?

 

Gun violence among truckers?

[The Burfict Storm]

Hey guys! Bengals fan here. You are having the same attitude as the Miami forum just before they played us. Most of you are coming into this game humble and with not a lot (if any) smack. That bothers me. A majority of the times you see the pre-game bigmouths lose in the end. I guess we were put in that position. But the consensus seems to be very lopsided. What happened to your team? You were brutally solid and an absolute threat to Denver but things seem to have collapsed. What gives?

[SilentHill]

I think this is a huge game for us, i mean basically the winner gets the #3 seed, and will not have to face KC in the first round of the playoffs.

 

I mean KC has fallen off, but I'd still much rather face a team like Miami or the Ravens at home.

[adamthyst]

I simply can't see Indy beating Cincy at their stadium especially the way they're playing. I'll always believe in them to win but the only way I see them winning this is if they suddenly come out on fire.

Lost Reggie.  However, if your looking for anyone in this forum to stoke the fire on this game, you will have to look elsewhere.  Most of these people are all Gloom and Doom, we suck, fire everyone, packup and move to LA, Luck is a bust types.  I say F that.  To you, we are gonna come to your house and burn that mother down.  Cinci is an average football team with only 2 wins against winning teams.  OH BOY you beat the browns.  Whoop dee Fing DOO.  Mathis is going to terrorize your Ginger QB.  Double up on Green cause Toler is back and Game over.  Do not worry though Bengals fans, youll still make the playoffs due to your cush garbage schedule and your weak butt division. 

 

Hows that for your consensus

So why are you one of the few that is up for this game? I don't see this as a cakewalk for anybody. The only thing holding the Bengals together is the defense. It's a given that they will play hard and aggressive when they are on the field. However, I don't have enough heart medication to watch when the Bengals have the ball. 

[GOCOLTS_ROLLTIDE]

Andy Dalton really has to have a mediocre day

But he won't our defense is notorious for making your average QB look Like a perennial pro bowler

Just how a lot of people (not all) on here roll.  It amazes me as well.  Of course, i was talking smack when Curtis Painter was at the helm.  !!  Its all good.  No.  Its not gonna be a cakewalk for either team.  Talking of defense, Indys defense kept them in the game againt the titans.  Same as Dalton.  Although, i would love to have Green on our side ofthe ball.  Should be a good, tough, grind it out football game,  Indy wins though,  No doubt in my mind. 

[Rick Ferrin]

Funny.  I thought this was a FAN forum.

[Freenyfan102]

I dont have faith in this Colts Offense line and the OC it just to dang predictable it like Watching Monty Python but in a a football formant

[JoKeR]

Wow let's just pack up & go home & forfeit rest of season!!!! C'mon don't lose the faith PATHETIC!

Colts 31

I like your heart, I'm with ya. We will win this game.

[HtownColt]

I would actually bet that way

[JlynRN]

I will NEVER predict my Colts to lose.  So much doom and gloom on this forum here lately, makes me wonder sometimes.  

 

Colts lose 30-9??  Really????  C'mon man !!!

 

Colts will WIN 27-24 !!!

[bap1331]

We will get something going. Hope we do. I'm starting to get irritated @colts fans with no faith

[dudeski]

Colts are going to get smoked. Bengals all day long here
