"Manning will be gunning often against the shaky Titans secondary and Reggie Wayne could be destined for more than one score. Throw in one of the best tight ends in the NFL in Dallas Clark and the Colts will have too many weapons for a Titans team short on confidence and lacking any cohesion this year."

Peyton Manning will simply have too much for a struggling Titans D, so back the visitors says Andy Richmond

Tennessee and Indianapolis both emerged from the AFC South to make the playoffs as the Titans finished with the league's best record to end the Colts' run of five straight division titles. Both teams were expected to contend for that crown again this season, but only one looks like it will make a return trip to the playoffs. Peyton Manning and the Colts look to improve to 5-0 on Sunday night as they face the winless Titans.

This must be the Tennessee coach Jeff Fisher's last stand and it will be a surprise if the Colts don't deliver the killer blow to their season. Colts QB Manning should have success against a Titans defence that has given up 300-plus yards passing in three out of four games.

Manning will be gunning often against the shaky Titans secondary and Reggie Wayne could be destined for more than one score. Throw in one of the best tight ends in the NFL in Dallas Clark and the Colts will have too many weapons for a Titans team short on confidence and lacking any cohesion this year. Both of those Manning targets are worth a look at in touchdown scorer markets.

The Colts have everything rolling and Manning is winning games by himself. Can he be stopped? Well The Colts have won 13 straight regular-season games dating back to last season, which is the longest current streak in the NFL.

Recommendation: Indianapolis -3.5 points at 2.06
