Colts vs Pats-
Historically, the Patriots have owned the series versus the Colts. New England has won five straight going back to 2010. It also includes last season’s divisional round game, one that the Pats won 43-22 as 7.5-point favorites in Gillette. However, it should be noted that the underdog in the series when these two teams tangle is a solid 14-5-2 ATS going back over the last 21 meetings. New England is also a lousy 0-5 ATS in their last five AFC Championship games as well (3-11 ATS in their last 14 playoff games too).
I have a slight lean towards Luck and colts.. Copycat score from last week 35-31 Pats eek it out
Packers vs Seahawks-
The curtain had barely closed on the Packers defeat of the Cowboys last week before the online betting sites tabbed Seattle as 7.5 point favorites. That line has held during the early betting, even under heavy public action on Green Bay, a weekly betting darling. It might be one of the squarest bets in the game each week, but it is hard to ignore the league’s best offense getting seven and the hook. Green Bay will have to buck a recent trend as they are just 3-7 against the spread in their last ten on the road against winning teams. Seattle has four ATS wins in their last five playoff games at home and are 5-1 against the spread in their last six playoff games overall.
Seattle 26-16.
