Colts open as 1.5-point underdogs to Titans in Week 8

The Indianapolis Colts (3-4) will be looking for revenge when the Tennessee Titans (5-2) visit Lucas Oil Stadium for a rematch in Week 8.

But as Indy comes off of a solid win, the Titans have been one of the hottest teams in the entire league. They’ve upset some of the powerhouses in the AFC, including the Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills.

That’s the main reason why the Colts are 1.5-point underdogs at home in Week 8, per Tipico Sportsbook.

Spread Moneyline Total Points
Tennessee Titans (5-2) -1.5 -120 O 49.5
-115
Indianapolis Colts (3-4) -1.5 +100 U 49.5
-105

The Colts have won three of their last four games since that Week 3 loss against the Titans. Indy is hoping this time around will be different given that Carson Wentz is healthy and playing well. They will also have Kwity Paye and Quenton Nelson back, both of which injured themselves during that game.

Regardless, the Titans have been playing up to their competition and even besting some of the top teams in the AFC. The Colts have yet to prove they can finish against that tier of competition so this will be a major litmus test to see just where they are at with a few more games under their belt since the first meeting.
