NFL 2021 Preseason Week 3: Indianapolis Colts vs. Detroit Lions Betting Analysis and Odds (Friday, August 27, 2021)

Indianapolis Colts and Detroit Lions will meet for their Week 3 NFL preseason game at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan.

The NFL odds for today are up and running as the Colts look forward to building on their success. Both teams will battle in their final preseason game before they take opponents in their regular season.

Indianapolis Looks to Carson Wentz

Last season was not entirely productive for Wentz and he hopes to have a better season this year. The Colts won a total of 11 games and dropped five in return. Quarterback Jacob Eason was impressive against the Vikings after covering 16 of his 27 passes. Eason touched a total of 132 yards in total.

Indianapolis seems to win both their opponents with a small difference in their scores. The Colts have room for improvement from the defensive end. The Detroit Lions were strong enough against a tough Pittsburgh squad despite their loss. The Lions scored 20 and gave up 26 in return. The Detroit Lions came off a close defeat against the Bills when they scored 15 and gave up 16.

Dan Campbell’s Era Begins

Detroit Lions are all set to begin a new era with Dan Campbell as their rookie head coach. Campbell has plans for improving Detroit’s running game but the Lions might need support from other aspects. Penei Sewell and Tylar Decker will play an important role, including running back D’Andre Swift. The Lions had David Blough cover 143 throwing yards and a single TD against the Steelers in their last defeat.
