Week 10 of the NFL brings us a game between Colts vs Raiders, two of the biggest disappointments so far this season.
After their third consecutive lost game, in a 3-26 loss to the Patriots, the Indianapolis Colts team arrives to this game with a new head coach, after Frank Reich was fired. Meanwhile, Las Vegas wasn’t able to use their advantage and fell 20-27 to the Jaguars.
Without further ado, JefeBet brings you the best preview of the game between the Indianapolis Colts vs Las Vegas Raiders.

- BetMGM Spread: +6.0.

- Over/Under: 42.5
Jeff Saturday, once the Colts’ center for 13 seasons, including Peyton Manning’s most successful seasons with the franchise, will assume the head coaching position this Sunday, even if he has no previous experience on an NFL coaching staff.
This is a big gamble for an Indianapolis organization that brought in Matt Ryan during the preseason and that has failed to find the right formula to avoid making mistakes and to effectively score points. The Colts’ offense shares the lead with the Patriots’ and the Saints’ offense for most fumbles lost with 17, while their 4.8 yards per play is the third lowest average in the league .
Such performance, which led them to score less than 17 points in five of the last six games, does not correlate at all with the good defense they have shown throughout the season. The Colts have the defense with the second-lowest yards per carry in the league, at 3.8 and the sixth-lowest yards per play conceded at 5.0. However, there was little they could do to mitigate the consequences of the large number of balls lost in attack.
Betting on the Las Vegas Raiders
- Season record: 2-6.
- BetMGM Spread: -6.0.
- Moneyline: (-250)
- Over/Under: 42.5
What the Raiders have done this season is being witnessed but not believed, since against the Jaguars they lost their advantage of at least 17 points for the third time in the game .
Josh McDaniels’ team inconsistency is far from what is expected from a team that was built with the mission of getting a place in the postseason, and from a team that is closer to elimination than to the playoffs. It cannot be avoided. The team’s defense is the sixth one with most yards per play conceded in the league, with 5.8, it is also last in fumbles recovered with just five, and through the air it allows an average of 7.0 net yards per pass, which is the fourth highest score in the circuit.
Taking into account all of the above, there is little the team’s offense could do, an offense that has been getting better as the weeks went by. Despite being blanked by the Saints two days ago, the offense shares fourth place in yards per carry with an average of 5.1, and their seven turnovers are the second fewest of any other offense in the league.
JefeBet Prediction
The arrival of a new head coach could be a revulsive move for the Colts, but they have a diffucult task ahead of them when visiting the Raiders, a team that has won its only two games of the season at home.
Matt Ryan and Jonathan Taylor are still in doubt for the game against the Raiders, so the Colts’ offensse problems could remain despite the Vegas’ shaky defense. The offense that Derek Carr can deploy against his rivals will be key to define the match.
Prediction: Raiders to win (IND 17 – LV 23).
