Week 11– Indianapolis
Colts (9-0) @ Dallas Cowboys (5-4)
Opening
Line: Colts - 3
Sunday, 4:15 pm Eastern

The Indianapolis Colts (9-0) quest for perfection continues
on Sunday as they travel to Dallas to face the Cowboys (5-4).
In one of the biggest line moves for the week, SBG Global
reports that the public is all over the Colts bringing the
opening line of Colts - 3 to Colts - 1. Even though the Colts
only slipped by the Bills last weekend to keep their perfect
season alive, they are still the favorite where ever they
play.
Last year most people figured the Colts had a chance to finish
unbeaten because they were blowing out teams. This year they
have had only one rout. They've escaped poor teams, Buffalo
and Tennessee, by one point, rallied twice in the final minutes
to beat the New York Jets, and needed another late drive to
win in Denver.
Indianapolis is a one point favorite with a total of 48.5
at SBG Global.
The offense hasn't had one of its record-breaking seasons.
The defense has struggled. It’s ranked
last in the league against the run (158.3 yards per game).
Coach Tony Dungy said these Colts may not look as good as
last year's team, but that it may work to their advantage.
"In most games, you're in the fourth quarter and you've
got to make some plays to win the game," Dungy said.
"So when you do that, it gives you confidence that you
can do it again. It's a matter of doing what you're supposed
do, not necessarily anything spectacular. That's what you
have to do in the playoffs."
The schedule also may help the Colts. Last year, they faced
both Super Bowl teams, Pittsburgh and Seattle, AFC North champion
Cincinnati, wild-card qualifier Jacksonville and San Diego
during a six-week stretch between Nov. 20 and Dec. 24. This
year, the Colts have already handled the toughest part of
the schedule. After Dallas and Philadelphia, the Colts visit
Tennessee and Jacksonville, host the Bengals, travel to Houston
and host Miami.

This game has the potential to be a good one. The Cowboys
seem to have hit their stride with Tony Romo at quarterback.
They easily could be 6-3 if not for another botch by overrated
kicker Mike Vanderjagt. The Cowboys instead come in at 5-4
and have gotten a lot of respect from bettors around the world.
The Colts opened as a 3 point favorite but are down to only
a one point choice as money has come in on the Cowboys.
