Indianapolis Colts was down 38-10 early in the 3rd quarter last week in the AFC Wild Card game Chiefs vs Colts and manage to comeback with a 45-44 victory to advance to the AFC Divisional round. Andrew Luck will need to score early to prevent another deficit this week against the Patriots. Unlike in Andrew Luck’s first playoff victory, the Pats fight hard to hold onto a lead. The defense will need to step up their game this week, once the Patriots run up a score they don’t let it go.

Indianapolis Colts vs New England Patriots Prediction
After the Colts performance last week I am not so sure that this is an easy game to predict. My first thought was go for the Colts after seeing such a battle but then again. Play a first half like that against the Patriots and their done for. So I am risking 5 units on the New England Patriots to win this game.
