NFL Betting - Indy is a Must Bet at the AFC South

A must-bet situation presents itself in the AFC South as the Indianapolis Colts are the clear favorites to win the division in 2010, but also with really favorable odds.

NFL Odds To Win AFC South

Indianapolis Colts -150

Houston Texans +350

Tennessee Titans +350

Jacksonville Jaguars +1000

Since the 2003 season, the Colts have won the AFC South with the exception of the 2008 season when the Titans won it. This means they are built to win against their rivals and history shows that they haven’t had many problems achieving it.

Indianapolis is hungry and hurting after losing the Super Bowl last season. Peyton Manning will have Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie now in their second year along with him, but also he will have Anthony Gonzalez back for this season.

Another thing to consider is that the Titans, Jaguars, and Texans don’t have that great of defenses to stop Manning and his passing game. In fact Tennessee, which is to me the only team with a shot of stealing the divisional title from Indy, had one of the worst passing defenses in the league last season.

The Colts defense is among the fastest in the league, which is something that could actually give their opponents true headaches.

Right now the line is at -150, meaning that it is one of the most favorable lines among all the division favorites, especially if you consider that betting Indy is kind of lockout.

The Colts schedule is not one of the hardest, in fact, they can go 6-0 as their toughest team to beat will be the New York Giants in the first six weeks.

The difficult games for them will come in weeks 11, 12 and 13 as they visit New England and receive San Diego and Dallas at home.

It’s hard for me to believe that not many people have take advantage of this line. If you are a NFL betting fan, please do it, it’s an easy way to make some money.

Simmons’ pick: Bet Indy -150
