Colts vs. Broncos Odds
The Indianapolis Colts will travel cross-country to take on the Denver Broncos this Sunday in a Week 3 matchup that features two teams at 1-1.
Game Preview:
Both of these teams are fresh off victories in Week 2, as the Colts beat the Giants on Sunday Night Football and the Broncos beat the Seahawks as a home favorite. Both of these teams also lost in Week 1, as Indy was run over by Houston and Denver couldn’t keep pace with Jacksonville.
The Broncos will be without running back Knowshon Moreno for this game after he suffered an injury in practice on Friday. That’s good news for a Colts team that Arian Foster shredded in the Texans’ Week 1 win in Houston. Denver likes to use Moreno both as a runner and a pass-catcher, so his loss certainly hurts the Broncos’ offense.
Line Movement & Updated Odds:
The Broncos opened as a 3-point home underdog in this contest, but the line quickly rose to +6. Oddsmakers from online sports book BroburySports.com currently have the Colts listed as a 5.5-point favorite, while the over/under total remains 48.
