I think the Colts need Marvin Harrison healthy and their defense to play another sensational game in order to win in Foxboro.
What do I know though, flipping a coin does as well as I do ATS.

The Pats fans will be way too drunk to remember to quiet down when the Patriots offense is on the field. Windy conditions can change a football game more than any other factor. If the Patriots are going to win in Foxboro in January they will have to do so running the football better than they did yesterday. They are certainly capable of that but are also capable of running even worse when Indy can let the wind aid in defending deep balls to Moss and can focus more on the run and short passing game. And yes, Harrison would certainly be a huge boost for them, they had a lot of costly drops yesterday.
