Advice and prediction

Colts over 17.5 points (+105)

Despite the strong chance the Colts will be without rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson, they have a pretty strong backup option in Gardner Minshew. With his feathered and lethal flow, Minshew is going into his third season in Shane Steichen’s offense. He led the offense to 17 points in Week 2 after Richardson exited with his injury and even though the Ravens sport a solid defense, this Colts offense is already much better than the unit from a year ago. Steichen and Minshew will be able to do enough to clear the line of 17.5 points even if they aren’t favored to win.

Prediction: Ravens 27, Colts 21
