Colts vs. Cowboys NFL Week 16: TV Schedule, Betting Lines, Prediction
James Lang-USA TODAY Sports
Week 16 Matchup: Indianapolis Colts (10-4) vs. Dallas Cowboys (10-4)
TV Schedule: Sunday, Dec. 21, 4:25 p.m. ET, CBS
Stadium: AT&T Stadium
Line: Dallas (-3)
It’s hard to believe that the Dallas Cowboys may not even make the playoffs. Sure, if they win out, they are in. However, they still have to play the Indianapolis Colts this week, and then a weak Washington Redskins team on the road in Week 17. The Colts already clinched their spot.
Speaking of the Colts, they are riding a four-game winning streak, and it wouldn’t be a surprise if they won the last two ballgames of the season. Dallas will clearly be a tough out this weekend, but then Indy will close out the regular season against the Tennessee Titans. Even if Andrew Luck and others aren’t competing (aka being rested) in that game, I still like Indianapolis’ chances.
Although Dallas still isn’t guaranteed a spot in the postseason, it has won two road games in a row. In case you missed it, DeMarco Murray had surgery this week, but still may be able to play this weekend. If he is not good to go, good luck to Dallas. Murray has been a workhorse all season long, and Dallas is about to go up against a lethal offense.
Let’s put it this way: If Murray plays, Dallas will win at home. If not, Luck and the rest of the team could cruise to victory. Regardless, the Dallas D will have to come up big against Luck, and a solid outing out of Tony Romo will also be needed.
PREDICTION: Colts 26, Cowboys 30
