Turnover Points Could Keep Washington +4 in Play

Turnovers matter when they become points. A scoring swing can change a close game without Washington controlling every drive. That is the case for Washington Commanders +4 (-110): the takeaway path could keep the Colts from building separation. For this number, one scoring swing could matter more than a general hunch that the game stays close.

In Week 3, Washington forced three Seattle turnovers that directly or indirectly produced 20 points, according to commanders.com. That gives the argument a real example of the mechanism, but one game does not tell us whether it happens again.

The Colts are the counter. Indianapolis beat Houston 19-17 in Week 3 even though Daniel Jones threw an interception and lost two fumbles, according to colts.com. They can survive turnover trouble, so Washington’s takeaway path may not stop Indianapolis from creating the margin that beats this ticket.

Take Washington Commanders +4 if you believe a takeaway-created scoring swing could keep the Colts from pulling away. If Indianapolis’ ability to absorb mistakes is the stronger read, pass.
