Colts are now 1.5-point favorites over Falcons in Week 3

Though the Indianapolis Colts (1-1) opened the week with a larger spread, it seems Vegas believes the Week 3 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons (1-1) will be much closer.

After opening the week as 2.5-point home favorites, the Colts are now 1.5-point home favorites over the Falcons as of Friday, per BetMGM.

The money line for the Falcons is 100 while the money line for the Colts is -121. The total sits at 47.5 for the Week 3 matchup.

The Colts are coming off of a big win in Week 2 over the Tennessee Titans on the road in which they completed a fourth-quarter comeback. Jacoby Brissett tossed three red-zone touchdowns while Denico Autry finished with 2.0 sacks.

The Falcons have struggled to run the ball, but wide receivers Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley are enjoying strong starts to the season.

The Colts could be without linebacker Darius Leonard, who suffered a concussion during the Week 2 win. He remains in the concussion protocol and is in serious danger of missing the matchup.
