The Indianapolis Colts (9-4) are looking to sweep the series against the Houston Texans (4-9) when the latter visits Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday for a Week 15 matchup.
A rematch of the Colts’ victory in Week 13, the home team is favored pretty heavily against a struggling Texans squad. As Vegas has the Colts favored by more than a touchdown, the experts around the league are also siding with the team currently holding the No. 6 seed in the AFC playoff race.
Here’s how some of the experts see this game shaking out:

As of this writing, 194 analysts made their picks over at Tallysight. In line with the expert picks above, 95% of the analysts are siding with the Colts in a straight-up pick. With the 7.5-point spread, though, only 57% of analysts are picking Indy to cover.
The game was close in Week 13, and it may have gone differently had the Colts not taken advantage of a fumble in the red zone late int he fourth quarter to seal a 26-20 win.
But the Texans are limping into the offseason. Deshaun Watson is doing what he can to produce, but the supporting cast around him is extremely depleted.
The Colts should come out and sweep the series against Houston, and the experts around the league believe that’s what will happen.
