Week 10, Bills v. Colts, PREDICT THE SCORE!


Recommended Posts

Congratulations again to Week 9 winner @Bookie Man!

 

The 7-2 Bills travel to Indy to face the 4-5 Colts indoors at the Lucas Oil can.  The Colts have benched wunderkind Anthony Richardson for grizzled veteran Joe Flacco.  It didn't work well for them last week on SNF, as Flacco completed less than 60% of his passes with an INT, while losing to the Vikes 21-13.

 

The only concern for Bills fans is Jonathan Taylor, the Colts RB who typically destroys the Bills soft run D.  I expect he'll get over 100 yards, but Flacco will not threaten the Bills pass D enough to overcome the Colts terrible defense.  They're ranked 31st against the run, so I expect big days from Cook, RayRay, and Ty.  I predicted last week that the game would be over by halftime, and I see no reason to change here.  This game will not be close.

 

Beews - 41

The Bills have scored 30 or more points in 6 games this season.  They are 6-0 in those games, including 3 in a row.  In 4 of the those games (Sea, Jax, Mia and Ten ) they have held the opponent to 10 points (seriously exactly 10 points each).  

 

So far this season has been a tail of 3 game sets.  The first 3 the Bills went 3-0 scoring 30+ in each game and with only 1 close game.

 

The next 3 were the road gauntlet.  The Bills went 1-2, getting blown out by Balt, but the other 2 games with identical 23-20 games with the Bills winning one game (Jets) and losing one (Hou).

 

The last 3 games were similar to the first 3.  The Bills are 3-0 with 2 blow out wins and one close win, but they scored 30 points+ on all three.  

 

So how does this next group of 3 games go at Indy, KC at home and then SF at home?  

 

Indy's defense is average.  Their offense is banged up, but Flacco can get hot.  Interestingly, they lost 23-20 to Houston as well.  

 

Bills streak of 30+ ends, but the Bills still get the W 27-14.

Haven’t won in Indy since Flutie made his flakes. Colts are missing key OL which for some reason never seems to be as big of a factor as you’d hope it would. Home dogs,  coming off of a loss, and currently only a game out of a wild card spot. They are going to fight like their season depends on it.

I'm feeling a redux of the Seahawks game but with a bit less scoring because of injuries to Coleman and Cooper. Pittman feels unlikely to play and Flacco is a statue so on defense we can sell out to stop the run like we did against Seattle. Flacco is the worst QB we've faced this year, even worse than Mason Rudolph IMO. He was terrible last week. McDermott doesn't lose to terrible QBs with mediocre coaching staffs. I struggle to find anything to be concerned about in this one.
