Indianapolis Colts vs Minnesota Vikings: Both teams are coming off a loss

The Indianapolis Colts are visiting the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium.

The Indianapolis Colts are second in the AFC South with a 4-4 record, including 1-3 on the road. They are coming off a 23-20 loss to the Houston Texans in Anthony Richardson’s second game back. He was 10 of 32 for a total of 175 yards and the Colts. Jonathan Taylor rushed for 105 yards on 20 carries for the Colts.

 

Can the Vikings bounce back?

The Minnesota Vikings have fallen to third place in the NFC North with a 5-2 record, including 3-1 at home. They are coming off a 30-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams which was their second consecutive loss after a 5-0 start. Sam Darnold passed for 240 yards and was 18 of 25. Justin Jefferson had eight receptions for 115 yards.

They are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games overall, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games played in November and 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games played in Week 9. Minnesota has played under the total point line in 4 of their last 5 games against the Colts, 8 of their last 12 home games, and 6 of their last 7 games played against teams from the AFC. The Colts are 4-2 SU in their last 6 games overall, 6-1 SU in their last 7 games against Minnesota, and 1-5 SU in their last 6 games on the road.

Prediction and Conclusion

The Minnesota Vikings overcame a 33-point deficit to win 39-36 in overtime in the previous meeting between these two teams, which went down in the record books. The Vikings made history once more with one of the greatest starts in the team’s history, going 5-0, but they lost their last two games and fell to third place in the division. Christian Darrisaw, a standout left lineman, sustained a season-ending knee injury during the slide, costing Minnesota a vital player. In a move that might affect the course of the game, the team moved quickly to acquire left lineman Cam Robinson and a potential seventh-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft from the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for a conditional fifth-round pick in 2026. With veteran tight end T.J. Hockenson making his season return after missing the first seven games due to knee surgery, things appear to be turning around. In 15 games last season, he caught 95 passes for 960 yards and five touchdowns. Going into this week, it is anticipated that the Indianapolis Colts would start veteran Joe Flacco at quarterback. He was excellent when he replaced Anthony Richardson. This season, Flacco has a passer rating of 102.2, while Richardson’s has 57.2. Throughout the season, Flacco has passed for 716 yards, seven touchdowns, and one interception. With Sam Darnold set to make his eighth start of the season, the Vikings have no such reservations. He has thrown for 1,610 yards, 14 touchdowns, and five interceptions, with a passer rating of 107.2. The Vikings are favored to win this game based on the odds, and it is difficult to see them losing for the third consecutive game. The Vikings will cover the -5.5-point spread, and the Colts will bear the expense of their current roster doubts.
