Indianapolis Colts vs New England Patriots Spread 2011 NFL Predictions Week 13: Under normal circumstances, this would be THE premier game this week. But with no Peyton Manning, there isn’t too much to talk about from the Colts perspective other than his health status. Nonetheless, Tom Brady will still be there, as he tries to put a real gap between themselves and the New York Jets in the AFC East standings.
Gillette Stadium in Foxborough will be the site for this Week 13 matchup between the winless, (0-11) Indianapolis Colts [+20½] and the (8-3) New England Patriots [-20½]. This game is scheduled to kickoff Sunday afternoon at 1 PM ET on CBS Sports. According to NFL Point Spreads specialists, the OVER/UNDER for this game is set at a combined total of 48 points scored.
For the Colts, Manning is still sidelined in what could be the cause for his exit out of Indy. With everyone’s attention now focused on the Colts quarterback of the future in Andree Luck, many believe that we’ve seen No.18 for the last time. According to various reports, Manning will be evaluated and could be cleared to practice before season’s end. This would give the organization a good look at Manning and should facilitate the decision to ship him away for higher value.
For this game, Jim Caldwell will have a new starting QB and DC coming in, as Curtis Painter has been demoted and defensive coordinator and Larry Coyer was fired. Starting under center this week will be Dan Orlovsky against the Pats defense.
"We feel this is the most effective and realistic way to move forward and win games this season," Jim Caldwell said. "We wanted to also be patient in terms of making certain that we gave them the opportunities that they needed in order to improve. Given the bye week and also, obviously, the following week leading up to the game, (we) certainly gave ample time in both situations."
