⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public and money align strongly on Ravens ML and the Under while diverging toward Colts on the spread, creating a classic dog-cover spot with mathematical backing from simulation cover rates and Colts home resilience despite poor overall record. Ravens hold clear talent and form edge for the outright, but the number and total lean lower due to Colts defensive averages and pace factors. Overall scoring outlook favors a controlled, sub-47.5 game with Ravens pulling away late rather than a shootout.
