OUR PREDICTION: Despite the Colts’ issues, they’ve been a solid bet against AFC South competition, going 17-6-1 against the spread in their last 24 games versus the division. They’re also 5-1-1 at the betting window in their last seven games versus the Texans and the road team is 3-0-1 ATS in the last four meetings between these two teams. Brock Osweiler has been horrid this season and with tensions apparently building this week between him and head coach Bill O’Brien, this is a good spot to fade Houston.
