Colts vs. Vikings predictions

The El Paso Times: Vikings 28, Colts 20

Bret Bloomquist writes: "The Vikings are still one of the NFL's best teams and look for them to get well at home."

Bookies.com: Bet the under in Colts vs Vikings game

Bill Speros writes: "Stop The Presses. The Indianapolis Colts (4-4 overall) are the best team against the spread in the NFL at 7-1 this season. No. One. Saw. That. Coming. Even with QB Anthony Richardson tapping out against the Texans in a 23-20 loss (but cover). The Vikings (5-2, 5-2 ATS) have dropped 2 straight and their last win came over the train-wreck Jets in London. The mini-bye will help Sam Darnold & Company after a brutal loss to the Rams. The Vikings defense should fare a bit better against the Colts and their run-first QB. We'd love to ride the Colts ATS Express, but this one is going to be close. And low-scoring."
