Colts vs Packers betting odds: Quarterbacks make all the difference

A quarterback injury makes all the difference.

The Indianapolis Colts are 3.5-point favorites for Sunday's Week 2 game at the Green Bay Packers . The Colts were 4-point underdogs, according to some sites, prior to the season.

How does a full touchdown swing in the betting line happen so fast?

The Packers started the season with a rising quarterback in Jordan Love , but he went down with a knee injury in the closing seconds of their opener against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Who's up next for Green Bay? Probably Malik Willis, who has 67 career passes, 61 of which came in his rookie 2022 season in Tennessee. The Packers traded for him at the end of the preseason, and he took the final snap in Week 1, suffering a sack.

Sean Clifford, who threw 3 passes for the Packers last season, is also on the roster. Green Bay could acquire another quarterback.

Anthony Richardson , who had an exciting but uneven performance against Houston, remains under center for the Colts.
