NFL Week 14 Picks Indianapolis Colts vs Tennessee Titans Peyton Manning Colts QB NFL Week 14 Picks - Bet Colts vs Titans - Thursday, December 9th, 8:20PM ET NFL The NFL week 14 picks on the 2010-2011 NFL betting season are out on the Indianapolis Colts vs the Tennessee Titans Thursday Night Football match-up. This Thursday the Indianapolis Colts head to LP Field as a 2 1/2 point favorite to battle their AFC South rival Tennessee Titans. The Indianapolis Colts offense vs the Tennessee Titans defense favor the Colts. The Colts are 5th in yards and 4th in points, while the Titans are 24th in yards allowed and 8th in points allowed. They can't stop anybody, but the one thing they can do is get to the quarterback, 7th in sacks. This is the crucial part in this game because if they could get to the quarterback, it will lead to turnovers, and lately the Colts quarterback Peyton Manning has been turning the ball over. The NFL week 14 picks advantage still goes to the Colts just because they won't be stopped with this 24th ranked defense. Check out BOVADA and start winning NOW!

The Tennessee Titans offense vs the Indianapolis Colts defense is a good matchup. The Titans are 30th in yards and 16th in points, while the Colts are 18th in yards allowed and 21st in points allowed. The Colts are one of the best in passing defense, 4th in passing yards allowed, but the Titans don't throw it often. The Titans will be running the ball about 35 to 40 times this game with one of the league's best running backs in Chris Johnson against this weak 29th ranked rushing defense. Because of this, I am giving the NFL picks advantage to the Titans. The special teams favor the Titans. The Colts are 30th in kickoff return average and 24th in punt return average, while the Titans are 7th in kickoff return average and 2nd in punt return average. The Colts are 23rd in kickoff return average allowed and 16th in punt return average allowed, while the Titans are 31st in kickoff return average allowed and 4th in punt return average allowed. What will come more often in this matchup? Both team do score, which means the kicking game will be there, but the Colts do score more often which means the Titans will have more shots on kickoffs. There might not be a lot of punt returns in this game so that is washed out. Since it will go down to kickoffs, I will say that since the Titans have a better average in kickoff returns and the Colts have a bad average allowed, I will say that the NFL week 14 picks advantage goes to the Titans. Both teams have two good coaching minds. When you look at the Colts coaching staff, the head coach is Jim Caldwell, but really the coach is the quarterback Peyton Manning. He basically makes the plays and changes them at the line. So really the matchup is the Titans coaching staff and their defensive schemes against Peyton Manning. The Titans head coach Jeff Fisher is one of the greatest coaches in the league. He makes the right decisions and the right calls. If only the players were able to execute for him. I will take Peyton Manning and his play calling over Jeff Fisher. Advantage goes to the Colts. My NFL week 14 picks on the Indianapolis Colts vs Tennessee Titans Thursday Night Football game are out. The Colts are not the Colts that we are used to. They have a lot of injuries, and Peyton Manning has been turning the ball over a lot as of late. The Titans are not playing the offense that they should be playing. They are not handing the ball off to Chris Johnson as much as they should. He is arguably the best running back in the league and they are not giving him the ball. If they went back to running the ball and giving the ball to Chris Johnson, then I will say that the Titans will win this one. I believe that they will go back to that for 3 quarters, but then they will decide to go to the passing game in the 4th quarter. They will lose because of that. The Colts win this one 27-21. --- by Eric Price at 1800-sports.com on December 06, 2010
