Preview
Indianapolis Colts are our pick at home against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9. The model gives them a 52% chance of winning, which makes this game close to a coin flip (under 55%).
Dallas Cowboys have the higher team rating (1440 to 1390), but home field push the pick to Indianapolis Colts.
Quarterbacks: we expect Dak Prescott to start for Dallas Cowboys (153 career starts); we expect Daniel Jones to start for Indianapolis Colts (92 career starts). We assume each team's most recent starter plays unless the injury report says otherwise.
Season so far: Dallas Cowboys are 3–5 and Indianapolis Colts are 2–6.
What could change the pick: late quarterback news. We re-check every 30 minutes until kick-off, then the pick is frozen and stays on our public record, win or lose.
