The Indianapolis Colts<\/a> next matchup is a home contest against the Atlanta Falcons. While billed as a home game, the Colts will be far from home as they head to Germany. This is the first contest in Olympiastadion Berlin. This stadium was built in 1936 for the Olympics and will serve host to these two teams who are both coming off tough losses. FanDuel Sportsbook<\/a> sees the Colts as solid favorites giving them a 6.5-point advantage in the spread.<\/p>\n

The money line starts at -290 with the over\/under at 48.5.<\/p>\n

It was a tough one in Pittsburgh that the Colts would love to have back. After jumping out to an early 7-0 lead and scoring on their first possession, things turned all Pittsburgh\u2019s way. A muffed punt spelled early trouble, but the Colts defense avoided giving up points. The good fortune stopped there as Daniel Jones and Jonathan Taylor turned in their worst performances of the season. 45-yards from Taylor and five turnovers from Jones was the ultimate disaster.<\/p>\n

The Falcons are a total enigma this season after convincingly beating the Bills yet losing to the Dolphins. This week saw them against the division leading New England Patriots. The Patriots jumped in front and maintained control for most of the game, although Michael Penix Jr. helped make things interesting late with a three touchdown performance. The Falcons left unhappy with the loss and went as far as calling foul on the Patriots stating they simulated the snap call on a key fourth down play by clapping.<\/p>\n

Both teams will make the long trip less than happy with themselves as they head to Germany for a pivotal matchup. The Colts will look to get back on track to maintain league superiority. The Falcons are looking to remain relevant in a crowded NFC that finds them slipping away. The stage in Berlin will be set for an early morning matchup as the Colts are seeking to head into the bye with a win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Indianapolis Colts next matchup is a home contest against the Atlanta Falcons.
