That's the good news. The bad - it didn't win.
The selection, a play on Seattle +3, pushed following the Seahawks' 24-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
Sunday's result now puts the series at 12-15-2 for the 2024 NFL season with a fortnight of play left.
My spreadsheet has the game to have forty-two points. That's a one-and-a-half points higher than the the current line of 40.5.
The database likes the Over.
Overall, the Over is 6-1 in games played between the Colts and Giants dating back to the mid-1990s. The Over is 3-1 when only factoring in games played with the Giants as the home side.
To be fair, the spreadsheet and database are also siding with the Colts even though I have decided to pass on taking them.
For those interested, the spreadsheet has the visitors to win by eight points. The line is currently -7.5, so it's very close (and I do not like the .5 hook).
Indianapolis are 5-2 straight up in contests against the Giants dating back to the mid-90s. They're also 4-2 whenever they're cast as the favourites.
The Colts are 3-0 as road faves.
But, like I said, I am very reluctant to place a bet on them. I'm only looking to bet on the Over.
