Between the Lines
Three reasons to like the COLTS (-2½) OVER THE JETS
• One team has a quarterback named Mark Sanchez, while the other has Peyton Manning. That’s a big difference with the game on the line.
• The Jets have lost three of their past five games and are struggling.
• The Colts have won their past four games and are 6-2 at home this season.
Three reasons to like the SAINTS-SEAHAWKS UNDER (44½)
• This game has the smell of a defensive battle, and defenses rule in the playoffs.
• The Saints’ offense will be Drew Brees and not much else. Expect the Seahawks to bring pressure as the Saints’ running game is on injured reserve.
• The Seahawks have trouble scoring, averaging 16 points in their past three games, and give up an average of 26 points.
LAST WEEK: 1-1
SEASON: 13-20-1
