It's a 50/50 game if you ask me. Even if Luck is back, I think the odds are the same. He never balls out on the Texans like he does the Jags and Titans. Texans always play us close.

 

I'm not predicting we'll lose, but even if Luck is back it's anyone's game.

If Andrew plays we will win. If we don't everyone can say I am full of it. I have supreme confidence he will turn this crap around.

Teams that have been .500 or below as division winners are 4-0 in the wild card game.

 

2008 Chargers were 8-8 and beat the Colts

 

2010 Seahawks were 7-9 and beat the Saints

 

2011 Broncos were 8-8 with Tebow and beat the Steelers

 

2014 Panthers were 6-10 and beat the Cardinals

 

Just saying. It ain't over till it is over. However, the game vs the Texans is for all the marbles in the division.

In the playoffs, team records don't matter. Everyone's record becomes 0-0. It's basically a new season. There's always a chance to win. "That's why we play the game!"

Question is, how bad do the Colts want this? With or without Luck. Totally obvious yesterday that some of the players resigned to the fact it was over. I hate that garbage. Let's see what kind of mojo mentality shows up this week. And, you're correct 06CBE. It is a Playoff game.

And there's the rub. This team has to buy into & resign itself to that mentality. A defeatist attitude breed losses. It's that simple. The Captain of any ship usually rights it. Whether it's this week or next, we need Andrew to take over the helm & start turning that daggone wheel. It all starts and ends with him and how the Colts respond to that turn.

Turned out well for these teams. Perhaps we can be one of them. I'll hold on to some ray of hope (not overly optimistic mind you).

Yeah this was on ESPN and Kravitz said it later in the day so no it wasn't some crack pot blogger living in his mom's basement.  Also Irsay is the same person who said if Manning was healthy he would be the Colts QB in 2012 during the 2011 season.  So this wouldn't be the first time Irsay said something that didn't happen.  It doesn't mean Luck wont play.  It just means he's not a sure thing. 

Not the same situation at all. Irsay had to make a decision on Manning in March of 2012 - well before anyone knew if he'd ever play again. With Manning not even able to throw and Luck there with the 1st pick, it was the right call.  Maybe Irsay did say if Manning were healthy he'd be the Colts QB, but Manning wasn't healthy at the time the decision had to be made.

No were did it wasn't the right call.  That wasn't my point and in fact in another post in this thread said the Colts made the right call.  The point I was making was that Irsay isn't above being less than 100% honest with the media.

 

Now with that said that said after I uncovered the quotes Irsay said Luck COULD play this week.  People ran with it and over looked that word and said Luck will be back week 15.  

 

Luck still might end up back this week but it's not looking like it right now.

Luck has only lost to the Texans one time, if that's "never balling out" then I'm scared for the Texans lol
