The Colts are 5-1 against the spread in their last six games, and 6-1 versus the spread in their last seven home dates. The Eagles are 8-2 in their last 10 contests and have covered the spread in four of their last six games away from home.
Philadelphia is coming off a 34-17 victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the score is deceiving. The Eagles sustained three turnovers and fell into a 17-0 hole in the first half before Philadelphia rallied with 34 unanswered points. Nick Foles struggled badly before the break, fumbling three times and throwing an interception. Foles only threw two picks in all of 2013.
Indianapolis fell to the Denver Broncos on Sunday Night Football, 31-24. The Colts fell behind 31-10 before staging a furious fourth-quarter rally. Ultimately, Andrew Luck threw for 370 yards and two touchdowns along with two interceptions. Indianapolis struggled to run the football, gaining 54 yards on 14 carries. The offensive line was mediocre, allowing three sacks.
