Colts +5.5 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook

The Colts are a different team when Joe Flacco is behind center. While the veteran isn’t the player he once was, he has been far better than Anthony Richardson. The whole offense looks better when he is in the game, which is why the team made the move to start him this week.

The Vikings have been coming apart on offense for a few weeks, but it also appears teams are figuring out the defense. Opponents have took advantage of the aggressive Vikings defense, leading to a combined 61 points. 

The Colts are a good team with Flacco, and we see them giving the Vikings a run for their money in prime time.

Jonathan Taylor Over 71.5 Rush Yards (-117) at Caesars Sportsbook

Taylor returned to action last week after missing almost a month with an injury. However, the electric back has not shown any signs of being hampered. He was fantastic against the Texans on Sunday, rushing 20 times for 105 yards and a touchdown (5.3 YPC). 

The Colts’ star has exceeded the 71-yard rushing mark in four straight games, averaging 5.3 YPC. Taylor is the best back in football when he is healthy, which he will be heading into this Sunday Night Football matchup.

Sam Darnold Over 254.5 Pass Yards (-119) at Caesars Sportsbook

While the Colts' defense isn’t great, their pass rush has generated a ton of pressure over the last few weeks. The pressure is helping to cover for the team’s secondary, which has struggled this season. 

The bad news for Indianapolis is Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold has the fourth-highest QBR when under pressure this season. The former Jet continues to produce at a high level, completing over 72% of his passes in two consecutive games.
