INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (+3) over Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Indianapolis has clearly caught fire, as Carson Wentz has achieved a firm handle on the levers of the offense.
What’s more, the Colts are catching Tom Brady and the Bucs at the right time, with Tampa Bay coming in off short rest following its Monday-night payback installment vs. the now-anemic Giants. It’s understandable the market respects Brady and Rob Gronkowski, but Jonathan Taylor & Co. are fully focused. Colts sustain surge.

First-year coach Nick Sirianni has done a slick job guiding the Eagles in their maiden voyage under his stewardship. Emphasizing the run, with Jalen Hurts overachieving with vigor, Philadelphia catches the Giants off their disheartening trip to Florida in that matchup against the champion Bucs, which yielded yet another unhappy ending. Remaining schedule offers considerable hope to South Philly. Eagles fly.
Last week: 1-1. Vikings (W), Seahawks (L)
Season: 12-9-1.
