New England Patriots at Indianapolis Colts Free Pick ATS

<p>Former divisional and playoff rivals provide us with what should be a great game to watch and<br />
bet when the Patriots take in the Colts Saturday night in Indianapolis. New England, following a<br />
2-4 start to this season, has won its last seven games in a row. The Colts, meanwhile, after<br />
starting 0-3, are 7-3 since. And both would make the playoffs if the postseason started today.<br />
Indy is lined as a very short home favorite for this game. Who do we like here for our free NFL<br />

<h2>Patriots-Colts NFL Betting Lines </h2>
<p>The Week 15 NFL betting odds opened Indianapolis as a 1.5-point favorite for Saturday night,<br />
with an over/under of right around 44. Early betting action then bumped the Colts to -2.5, and that total to 45.5.</p>
<h2>Patriots Betting Preview </h2>
<p>New England rides a seven-game winning streak into Saturday after beating Buffalo in the cold<br />
two weeks ago 14-10. The Patriots then enjoyed last week off.</p>

game, led 11-7 at the half, let Buffalo get within 11-10 in the third quarter but held on from there<br />
for the outright victory as a three-point dog.</p>
<p>The Patriots, throwing the ball just three times all game, out-rushed the Bills 222-99. And the<br />
only touchdown Buffalo scored came thanks to a muffed punt by New England deep in its own<br />
territory.</p>

last five foes. They’ve also allowed a total of just 26 points over their last five games.<br />
