Colts 5 Best Bets to Cash in Week 7 Against Undefeated Vikings

Five Colts-Vikings props to target as Indianapolis tries to stay inside the number against undefeated Minnesota.

The Indianapolis Colts are 2-4, their general manager is gone, and trade rumors are swirling around some of the biggest names on the roster.

Some think this team is ready to roll over. I think there are plenty of players with a fire lit under them, and despite Minnesota entering undefeated and favored by 6.5 points, I believe Indianapolis can stay inside the number.

Through six weeks, we're 13-3 on Colts-specific props and 15-13 overall. Even if this team keeps making Sundays painful, hopefully we can keep making them profitable.

Here are my best bets for Week 7.

Daniel Jones Over 5.5 Rushing Yards (-112)

Brian Flores is intimidating and his defense's unprecedented pressure rate is exactly why I like this play.

Minnesota has blitzed on 77.8% of its defensive snaps this season, meaning Jones will likely be forced to move around against one of the league's most aggressive defenses.

Jones rushed for 30 yards against Tennessee last week, his highest total of the season, and cleared this line in his last regular-season matchup against Minnesota.

As he continues working back from his Achilles injury, it's about time Jones starts getting after it with his legs again.

Jonathan Taylor Anytime Touchdown (-125)

At this point, Taylor is one of the few things keeping this Colts offense afloat.

He has seven rushing touchdowns through six games and has found the end zone nine times over his last nine games.

With Indianapolis' passing attack struggling, Minnesota will undoubtedly focus on slowing Taylor down. But sometimes it's simply good-on-good, and I'm trusting the Colts' best offensive player to find the end zone again.

Spencer Shrader Over 1.5 Field Goals (-107)

We have ridden this bet all year, it has cashed in five straight games, and Shrader is a perfect 18-for-18 on field goals this season.

Flores' defense has been immaculate, and I can easily see Indianapolis moving the ball enough to create scoring opportunities without consistently finishing drives.

Shrader has cleared this line in eight of his last 10 games and 11 of his 14 healthy career starts with Indianapolis.

Until this bet stops printing money, I'm going to continue to put it on the card.

Jordan Addison Over 3.5 Receptions (+114)

Addison is developing chemistry with Kyler Murray, hauling in five receptions against Tampa Bay and four against Miami in his last two games played.

He also caught five passes the last time he faced Indianapolis, and with Sauce Gardner ruled out, this secondary could have its hands full.

I expect Murray to look Addison's way plenty on Sunday.

Kyler Murray Over 20.5 Pass Completions (-117)

Murray has completed 27 and 24 passes in his last two starts, and this line has hit in seven of his last 10 games. Indianapolis' coverage unit ranks 29th in the league via PFF, and with all the turmoil surrounding this franchise, the defense has plenty to prove.

Unfortunately, I expect Murray to do what just about every quarterback has done against this Colts secondary: carve it up.

The Colts might surprise people with their effort Sunday, but that doesn't mean their defensive problems will suddenly disappear.

The approach is straightforward this week. Trust Taylor, keep riding Shrader, and take advantage of the matchups Minnesota presents. Good luck and bet responsibly.
