Colts can still win the division? [Merge]

They can it's just unlikely. I really don't see us winning two games against the Texans in three weeks plus have them lose another game (even with New England on the schedule) when to this point they have only lost once all year.

i agree theyd have to have major melt down for that to happen

I think the texans lately have be looking like there defensive hasn't been as strong, yes the are still very good, but look the would have lost to Detroit if it wasn't for their coach. Also look at them against the jags they almost lost. So it a long shot but it could still happen. We might be able to the texans.

Let's not get carried away. We are playing lights out, but the Texans are still better than us. We will compete there is no doubt about that, but we only have two games left that we actually stand a very good chance of winning.

Houston fans are starting to get concerned about this very possibility after seeing Luck beat the Lions today.

Yeah it's not like we beat them too or anything.

I love when people take one game out of the whole year and try and apply it to the season as a whole. Get real. :slaphead:

The Texans have lost 1 game so far this season. I don't think they're going to lose 3 of the next 4 and get swept by us lol. But heck, I'd just be happy to be in the playoffs! Hopefully the Ravens keep losing because between them and the Pats/Broncos I think we have the best shot of upsetting them.

Its possible but I expect Houston to do what NE did to us honestly in the game that will most likely be meaningful. Maybe not quite as a bad because Houston isnt a pass heavy team like NE so the score will be lower. But I expect them to dominate us honestly. I think if Houston has everything wrapped up in week 17 well win that game.

Also as others have said...the chance Houston drops 3 of the next 4 is highly unlikely.

But well see.

If the Patriots beat Hou next week

Colts beat the Texans x2 + chiefs + titans

Colts = 12-4

Hou = 11-4 with 1 more game

they can tie and colts own tiebreaker right

And if frogs had wings they wouldn't smack their butts when they landed after a jump....

Yeah anything is possible but I'm savoring the taste of a playoff game so don't pour on the pepper.

I doubt it happens guys even though I would love to see it lol. Even if the Texans lose in NE I think it's bad timing for us too, we go to Houston next after that game, Ugh. It's not impossible to win in Houston but we have a better shot to beat them at home and even that game might be for homefield for them for all we know. It also might be for either the 5th or 6th for us too.

However, todays win made things much easier for a WC spot. If we take care of business at home vs. TN and at KC we are golden. And not to get cocky but we really should beat TN at home and KC on the road....the team knows this too.

Todays miracle win was huge. It takes the pressure off in case beating Houston once had/has to happen......

Hey look on the plus side. We have two winning teams in the AFC South. This division gets so laughed at but I don't know why. ;)

It is mathematically possible....but its still mathematically possible for the Jets to beat us out of the last playoff spot, too.

Neither is at all likely

    • It depends on how good AR will be, if he is good we can win 11 with the help of another great player, we won 9 with Minshew, should have been 10. 
    • Gotta have a trade partner.Big ? Is would Arizona trade back that far knowing they’re gonna miss out on one of those top 3 Wr’s.I would also call New England and Los Angeles too.I don’t see MHJ getting past the 4th pick unless a Minnesota or Denver trades up for one of those top QB’s.I also don’t see the Giants if they stay put at 6 not taking Nabors I think that’s who they got they’re eyes on with that pick.
    • I think this probably isn't an objective viewpoint. I think you want fireworks, and you're an eternal optimist. Nothing wrong with that, but I think a more practical viewpoint is to acknowledge that taking huge chances isn't exactly a recipe for success. (You're going to point to examples that worked out; I'm going to counter with twice as many that failed.)   The bolded especially. First, it seems like you chose 11 games because you feel like that's the target to keep up with the Texans. Second, I don't think the Colts are one player away from keeping up with the top tier of the AFC. I think a lot has to go right for the Colts to be in the mix with the Chiefs, etc. I said at the beginning of the offseason, I think we're still one draft class away from being in those discussions.   But if you can talk yourself into one guy being the answer, just one playmaker holds the key for the Colts to be in contention, then yeah, identify your favorite prospect and bang the table for the Colts to do whatever they have to to get that player. That would be awesome for us. But I think the reason Ballard doesn't do that is because it's flawed team building (historically speaking), not because he's afraid.. You can promise steak dinners based on your hunches, but that's not exactly how I want the GM to make decisions.
    • Even in 2021 draft Chase was selected 5th by the Bengals, best move they have ever made. That gave Burrow gigantic help. They did the right thing and got Burrow what he needed.
