New York Jets vs. Indianapolis Colts: Monday Night Football
We've got a money line (ML) value alert for Week 13's Monday Night Football action as the New York Jets host the Indianapolis Colts.
The Colts head to MetLife Stadium as road favorites against a franchise they've lost three straight to.

What to Watch For
The Colts finally seemed to be building some momentum this season, recording back-to-back wins over the Green Bay Packers and Tennessee Titans. Thanksgiving week gave us the Andrew Luck concussion that ultimately resulted in a 28-7 loss to the Steelers for Indy. Luck will be back on Monday, looking to regain some footing against a defense allowing ~263 yards per game - in the bottom third of the league.
New York knows what it'll get on offense, but the bigger surprise this week will be their defense. They played better than expected against the New England Patriots last week, up 17-13 at one point in the fourth quarter. They lost 22-17, but showed enough grit to suggest their 22nd ranked defense might be a little better than the current numbers suggest.
