Free Betting Tips – How To Play Colts -3.0 Against Chargers
November 27, 2010
The matchup that people have been peppering me for free betting tips on more than any other contest this coming weekend is the Sunday Night Football battle between the Indianapolis Colts hosting the San Diego Chargers. What makes this game incredibly difficult to gauge is multi-faceted, but it starts with the fact that San Diego is turning the corner insanely fast. That makes all their metrics through the first three months of the season impossible to trust outright.
San Diego is just 1-4 SU and ATS in their last 5 games on the road but they are very much a team that thrives down the home stretch. A collective record that’s now 18-4 SU in the past three years in games played between Week 11 and Week 17 is proof that they somehow just pick up the slack and drive the nail in to the coffin as the season comes to a close.

There’s no room for error with Kansas City leading the division with a nice cushion, and San Diego knows it has to bring the pain to Indianapolis if they hope to make the playoffs with Rivers in the making of a historic season.
Success has come often for the Chargers when visiting Indy as well. Most free betting tips on this game can’t ignore the fact they’re 10-3 SU in their past 13 games on the road against Indianapolis, and they’re also 11-2 ATS during that stretch of games.

However, it would be irresponsible of me to encourage any free betting tips that involved betting against Peyton Manning at home in a night game. He’s just too damn good when he’s playing under the lights for whatever reason and the Colts have also had a nasty of habit of making any team look foolish when they pay a visit to Lucas Oil Stadium.
The Colts have allowed just 14.3 points per game at home this season and are undefeated at 4-0 SU when playing at home, with a 3-1 ATS record at home as well. The Giants, Texans, Bengals and Chiefs have all visited Manning at Lucas Oil Stadium and have been embarrassed by the Colts. As good as the Chargers are, it would be irresponsible of me to say that they can turn that trend around despite any free betting tips you might find out there.
Sure, Indianapolis has been ravaged by injuries but the most important two players are still on the field. As long as Manning and Dwight Freeney are healthy, the Colts are serious contenders and I have a very suspicious feeling that Manning is sick and tired of hearing about Rivers’ hunt for Marino’s regular season passing yards record.
Marino and Manning will both tell you that personal accolades don’t mean a damn thing unless you have a Super Bowl ring around your finger. As incredible as Rivers has been this season, his team is still out of the playoff hunt and things will only get worse for him and Norv Turner when they get tripped up by the Colts this Sunday Night.
Bet on the Chargers at your own risk. The Colts have been unstoppable at home and while this matchup presents all sorts of problems for their defense on paper, you can’t undersell how much better Indy plays in big games when it matters. The playoffs are still no guarantee for the Colts, and they’ll ensure that it says that way for the Chargers after running them off the field. Free betting tips on this game are simple – don’t bet against Indianapolis when they’re at home in prime time.
