Washington Professional Football Team (+10) over Indianapolis Colts

I believe in you, Colt McCoy.

The public is, questionably, on the side of the Colts in this match-up, and it is easy to see why. Indianapolis boasts a 7-4 record and the best young quarterback alive (Andrew Luck), while Washington just benched its starting quarterback (Robert Griffin III) and has been wretched in losing three straight.

Naturally, I’m taking the double-digit road underdog.

McCoy has the ability to protect the ball and limit mistakes, and in all honesty, Washington has been frisky defensively at times this season. Fading Andrew Luck is never a pleasurable experience, but if you can get double-digits in the other direction, I’d do it.
