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

    • Alot of people  sleeping  of troy franklin.  He is expected  to go in the second
    • I know a lot was said, but I really don’t like when people bring up JJ because he was such a unique case.  He fell for multiple reasons.  Analysts thought he was a product of the system, he shined because of chase, they thought he was just a slot guy.  JJ was such a curious case because he had the production to prove it but I think teams who picked other WRs ahead of him got wrapped up in the detractors.     TBH, the only player I can see in a similar predicament at WR is Adonai Mitchell, other than that, I think what you see is what you get.  Of course, there will be sleepers In every draft, but outside of Adonai, I don’t think there’s a “JJ” at WR In this draft.  Maybe Troy Franklin too. 
    • This presser has reinforced how I feel about this draft and what we might do.  This is one of the most “it can go any way” drafts I’ve been apart of as a colts fan.  Based on our needs, the strengths of this draft, and where we pick, there are numerous ways this thing can go.  Some takeaways I got from this presser:   - Getting AR a weapon:  I think after this presser, we are definitely getting an AR another weapon.  I’m not sure if it’s going to be with the first or second pick.  Bowers to the colts doesn’t seem likely to me now.  Ballard really likes our tight end group and I can’t see him investing a high pick into the tight end room given what we have.  But either way, either the first or second pick will be a weapon.   - Anything is possible:  we may trade up, stay put, or even trade back.  It all depends on how this draft goes, who they have on their board, and where they have them rated.  I can see us trading up if one or two of the top 3 WRs get to pick 9.  I can see staying put if our trade up options are gone but someone looks to be falling to us.  I can also see us trading back if we have first round grades on certain players who are left and can be chosen later in the first round.  I can see all of these things happening and it really all depends on how things play out.  Personally, I’d hope we trade up if one of the top 3 WRs get close enough and doesn’t cost us too much.  But either way, we’re in a unique position and this can go a lot of ways.  
    • Noway  Ballard  does that trade  but if he did he trade next years first for more seconds
    • I doubt  he moves up for any of those guys unless they fall to around 9-12. Only way I see us getting  Harrison  is through  free agency  in a few years if he chooses  to leave the team that drafts him.
