We've got an AFC South showdown on our hands when the Indianapolis Colts visit the Tennessee Titans, and surprise-surprise, but the Colts might be a playoff team.

Indianapolis Colts vs. Tennessee Titans: Betting Odds

Spread: Indianapolis -1, Over/under: 42.5 points, Indianapolis -118 | Tennessee -102

Indianapolis currently sits at 6-5, and if the season ended today, they'd own the seventh and final seed in the AFC playoffs. There's still six more games to be played, and first-year head coach Shane Steichen and QB Gardner Minshew have a ways to go before they clinch a playoff spot.

Jonathan Taylor will be out this week with a thumb injury, but Zack Moss has been effective in his time as a lead back this year. The Colts have won three straight games and are 4-1 on the road this season.

Tennessee, meanwhile, is in the midst of a disappointing 4-7 campaign, but they did win last week over Carolina, though that's hardly an accomplishment. Will Levis has taken over quarterbacking duties to middling results.

The Colts beat the Titans earlier this season in Indianapolis, 23-16.

On the season, Indy is 7-4 ATS and 7-4 to the over. Tennessee is 5-6 ATS and 8-3 to the under.

Betting Picks for Indianapolis vs. Tennessee

Over 42.5 points

There's offensive opportunity on both sides of the ball, which has us thinking points are about to be flowing free and easy.

The Colts have one of the worst run defenses in football, which seems to suggest a big Derrick Henry game is coming.

The Titans secondary has been a major problem, giving us confidence that Michael Pittman and this Indy passing attack are going to move the ball with relative ease.

If neither side meets resistance, let's just load up on the over and enjoy the show. We'll take over 42.5 in this one.
