"However, I don’t think they have the coaching advantage tonight. Pats don’t have much to prepare on for Reich and his new personnel with the Colts, as he’s only been their coach for 4 games - and thus will only have these past 3 days to prepare with 4 games of tape. "
LC....The Pats Defense had to prepare for the SB against Reich's Offensive scheme. I understand their are different players with different talents and attributes on Indy,but the X's and O's are very similar to what he as running in Philadelphia. While I understand Patricia was the DC, BB still has a very heavy hand in defense scheme from week to week. I would also argue the squad he had in Philly matched up much better against the NE D, minus TY Hilton who is not available tonight. You dont think BB/Pats D scheming against Reichs offense in the Super Bowl holds much stock? Curious as to your thinking on this. Thanks.
I also still believe the whole "deflate gate" is still in the back of BB mind. Different coach but it still is the organization that accused him and Brady of cheating. If they gain a sizable lead, I dont think he lets his foot off the gas. He never does anyway.
90% of the time I usually ride DD dogs in the NFL. But after looking since game before week 1, I thought there was a very large advantage to NE, and still do. Needless: I'm on the Patriots pretty large tonight.
Either way, good luck. One of us gonna take the cash from the bookmaker, which is a good thing!

I hold weight to that if it was a DC but not a OC. Most DC's will take their same schemes anywhere, regardless of the talent they have as the system in place is the same regardless of who's playing at CB, safety, etc. But it doesn't work the same on offense, as most offensive schemes are based around the talent you have. TE heavy, WR heavy, run game etc.
So Reich isn't necessarily running the same scheme anymore given the new pieces he has. Where as for instance Matt Patricia is implementing (or trying anyway) the same defensive scheme in Detroit that he ran for the last 6 years in New England.
I could be wrong, but we'll see.

see y'all after the game

I feel like the Colts vanilla cover 2 scheme isn't good enough to keep Brady n company from moving the chains. But yet, I'm thinking that Belichek manages the clock and game situations just enough to win, but not cover.
I see no little to no chance of Indy running between the tackles vs the interior of the Pats D.
I'm having trouble with putting $ on anything in this game(as of now). I'm in first place by 1 game in an ats pool, and which side to pick is wrecking my brain.
Good Luck LC

Interesting thing about this game...
The Pats haven't faced a 4-3 yet this year.
The Colts haven't faced a 3-4 yet this year.
FWIW, last year:
Colts vs a 3-4 went 2-7 su, 5-4 ats
Pats vs a 4-3 went 8-3 su, 7-3 ats
Andrew Luck being absent for most of those.

LC, what you think about Colts over 19.5? Something has me wantin to pound that number. I could see 20 points from an Andrew Luck starting to find his groove.

I have a feeling this one could get away from Indy quick and if you are a LIVE bettor ( and if you aren't than I feel sorry for you ) you might be able to get a much better Colts line around +15 or +17 or higher. Just my 2 cents.

The Colts are going to be even more shorthanded than expected for Thursday's game against New England. Linebacker Darius Leonard, who was named AFC Rookie of the Month, is not expected to dress due to an ankle injury. Cornerback Nate Hairston also isn't expected to dress due to an ankle injury. Those two join inactives receiver T.Y. Hilton (hamstring), running back Marlon Mack (hamstring), tight end Jack Doyle (hip), offensive lineman Denzelle Good (personal -- brother killed Tuesday), cornerback Quincy Wilson (concussion), defensive tackle Hassan Ridgeway (calf) and cornerback Kenny Moore II (concussion).

I think Pat's cover the spread just in the 1st qtr
80% of people who have posted less than 100 times hold your view, clearly have the inside track
Don't you think it's foolish to judge someone's ability to pick winners based on how many times they've posted?
Very fair.. which is precisely why I said 80% and not 100%... I'm just over prospects posting that LC is fundamentally wrong and then are never to be heard from again... LC wont say anything but the comment was just ridiculous... FWIW he was only off by 2mins and I apologize
