Now comes an opportunity for Minnesota to get the season back on track. The Indianapolis Colts will come calling for NBC Sunday Night Football. So far, the Colts are inconsistent on the field but are bossing the cashier’s cage. Following a hot start, the Vikings have fallen upon hard times. The Purple Gang has dropped tilts against the Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams. As a result, Minnesota has gone from heroes to zeros. That old feeling that Viking fans and gamblers dread has returned. And only victory will change the conversation for Minnesota.
The Colts and Vikings Week 9 showdown is the NBC Sunday Night matchup.
Indianapolis is not an appealing betting on pro football using the Crypto brand for the casual sector, which enhances its value. Minnesota will draw action as a decent home team.
On Sunday, November 3, 2024, the Minnesota Vikings will host the Indianapolis Colts at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, MN. Kickoff time is set for 8:20 p.m. ET, and television coverage will be on NBC.

Indianapolis Colts Team Overview
Last game, the Indianapolis Colts lost 23-20 against the Houston Texans as 4.5-point road dogs. The game went under the total of 45. Indianapolis has a record of 4-4 straight up, 7-1 against the spread, and 3-5 over/under the total. Indianapolis ranks 17th for total offense, 21st for passing, 11th for rushing, and 19th for scoring. Defensively, they rank 27th overall, 23rd against the pass, 29th against the rush, and 14th for points allowed. Also, Indianapolis ranks 23rd for the fewest turnovers lost and 21st for takeaways.
Indianapolis got the ball late with a shot at the tie or win. But Anthony Richardson was sacked by Hunter again and fumbled on the last play to end the game. Richardson was 10 of 32 for 175 yards with a touchdown in his second game back after missing almost three full games with an injured right hip. Also, he was sacked five times and hit another eight times. Of major concern was that he was injured after leaving the game for a play before a field goal in the third quarter, but he was OK. Jonathan Taylor had 20 carries for 105 yards and a touchdown for the Colts.
The Indianapolis Colts football team remains one of the least popular teams on the board and is printing money this year.
Minnesota Vikings Team Overview

The Minnesota Vikings football team has been one of the better values on the board so far this season.
