Sportsbook.com Updates Colts' Perfect Record Odds

As reported by the Press of Atlantic City: "This is usually the time of year when Black Friday is much more important than blackjack and the mall is much busier than the gambling hall.

For the first time since offering odds on the Colts run to a 16-0 record, the odds are no longer against Indianapolis accomplishing the feat. The current odds are -115 on both the Colts going 16-0 and the Colts losing one of their remaining three regular season games.

Odds to win the AFC Conference and the Super Bowl have also improved. Manning and company are now listed as -300 favorites to make it to the Super Bowl, an improvement from -280 last week, and -170 favorites to win it all compared to -150 before this week's win over Jacksonville.

"This team is so close to history and the players are so competitive that I can't see Dungy keeping them off the field for very long," said Peter Childs, Sportsbook.com oddsmaker. "They might rest the stars in the fourth quarter of games if they have a comfortable lead but you can't keep Manning off the field in a close game, especially when you consider the next two games are against potential playoff opponents. You just don't want those teams gaining any confidence against you."

The Colts host San Diego on Sunday, a team that will be playing hard to strengthen their post season hopes. Their trip to Seattle the following week could be a likely Super Bowl preview as the Seahawks are running away from the pack in the NFC and favored to represent the conference in the Super Bowl.
