Indianapolis is first in the NFL in opponent turnovers (29) this season while New Allen Iverson Jersey England is tied for third (26). Not only are both of these teams snatching the football away from the opposing offense, but they are also capitalizing off them with points. The Colts (+62) and Patriots (+31) rank second and seventh respectively in points off turnover margin this season. Meanwhile, both of these teams have turned Joel Embiid Jersey the ball over just 16 times this season (tied for the 11th-fewest in the NFL). Can the Patriots slow down ?Jonathan Taylor entering this game as the NFL's rushing yards and rushing touchdowns leader, which could pose a problem for New England. While the Patriots defense has largely been strong this season, stopping the run has been one of their weak points. Entering Week 15, New England is allowing 3.2 yards post-contact per rush, which is the most in the NFL. Taylor is averaging 3.7 yards post-contact per rush this season (fourth-most among backs with at least 100 rushes). vs. Indy's zone defenseThe Colts have lined up in zone coverage in 72% of their defensive snaps this season (eighth- Jahlil Okafor Jersey highest rate in the NFL). That doesn't trend too favorably for the Patriots rookie quarterback, who hasn't had much succe s against zone coverage this season. Of 32 qualified quarterbacks, Jones is 24th in yards per completion, 29th in touchdowns per attempt, and 27th in sack percentage. The Colts are a 2.5-point favorite in this game and do present a strong matchup against New England. That said, Bill Belichick is notorious for being able to take away an offense's go-to weapon and force Wilt Chamberlain Jersey them to win another way. If he succe sfully takes away or limited Jonathan Taylor, it's hard to imagine being able to throw his way to victory against a New England pa s defense that ranks No. 3 in the NFL in DVOA. As for the betting trends, the Patriots are 7-0 ATS over this winning streak and are also 6-1 ATS in their last seven games off the bye. The Colts are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 home games. Pick: Patriots 24, Colts 21
