The Colts are the hottest team in the league right now and the Bengals are heated after a tie at home last week due to missing a FG at the end of OT.
Andrew Luck is having a monster season. He has already thrown for 1987 yards and 17 TD’s. He still has to watch the turnovers, as he has thrown 7 INT’s, which is slightly more than one interception per game.
The Colts rank 1st in points scored (31.5 PPG) and passing yards (328.7 PYPG). The run game is averaging 115.3 RYPG (16th) as well, which is good for a Colts run game that had question marks.

Ahmad Bradshaw is averaging 4.7 YPC (60 Carries) and he’s third on the team with 21 receptions. If he can stay healthy he’ll be a big weapon for the Colts out of the backfield, as he has excellent hands.

Cincinnati has a top ten offense as well. They average 26.8 PPG (10th), 269.6 PYPG (8th) and 127.4 RYPG (12th). This looks like it should be a high scoring affair, as both of these offenses are on fire.
Both defense are giving up close to the same amount of points, as the Colts are allowing 22.7 PPG (16th) and the Bengals are allowing 22.6 PPG (14th). Cincy has given up way more yards though.
Cincinnati has allowed 257.4 PYPG (22nd) and 141.4 RYPG (29th), which is unusual for a defense with this much talent. They have to improve this week or else Luck will make them look silly on the road.
Indy has been average on defense and they’re giving up 233.0 PYPG (14th) and 107.5 RYPG (11th). Cincy hasn’t forced many turnovers either, but once the defense is in the red zone they tighten up.
The Colts are flying high heading into this game and the public has hammered them. I’ll be betting on the Bengals this week to cover ATS. This game should end within a FG and I actually like Cincinnati to win.

Free 4* NFL Pick: Cincinnati Bengals vs. Indianapolis Colts
Cincy has won the last two H2H games including a 42-28 home win last season. Giovani Bernard will have a big game for the Bengals and I expect to see the defense play better after giving up 37 last week.
Cincinnati Bengals +3 (-110)
A.J. Green is likely going to miss this game, but Mohamed Sanu has played well. The Bengals are a better team and I feel they’ll be more motivated after being disappointed with their tie against Carolina.
