Over at Tallysight, 68% of the analysts have the Colts taking a road victory, and 61% of analysts believe Indy will cover the spread.
The Colts are likely to see the return of running back Zack Moss, who was inactive in Week 1 due to a forearm injury. Meanwhile, the Texans listed rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud as questionable after he popped up on the injury report Friday due to a right shoulder injury.
This should be a close matchup either way, but there’s a strong chance the Colts walk away with their first victory of the season if things go their way.
