Colts quarterback Andrew Luck is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Chargers. And that’s apparently triggering some unusual dynamics regarding the betting line for the game.
The contest has gone from Indianapolis being a three-point favorite to a pick-'em proposition. In some locations, the three-point swing was preceded by the game being taken off the board.
So maybe Vegas knows something about Luck that the rest of us don’t, yet.
For now, and given the general proposition that home-field advantage is worth three points, the Chargers would be a three-point favorite on a neutral site -- and San Diego would be a six-point favorite at home against the Colts.
Apart from Luck’s health, the Chargers have owned the Colts during the Philip Rivers era. If Vegas didn’t realize that earlier in the week, it apparently knows it now.
