I saw this somewhere:

 

JAX defeats NO
DEN defeats CIN
MIA defeats NE
BUFF defeats NYJ
BALT defeats CIN
JAX defeats HOU
INDY defeats TENN
DEN defeats SD

This doesn't bode well for us

 

I just confirmed it here:

 

Playoff Machine

 

Plug in the above and the Colts win the division.

 

Not likely to happen but anything is possible.

I don't know if you are being sarcastic, but the Colts have virtually no shot of winning an 8-8 tie.

Not even sure I would want to win the division at 8-8, feels like crap peddled into the playoffs. We are better then that.

Yes... If you're assuming Jags beat the Saints (doesn't look good early).

 

If Saints beat Jags we need Raiders to beat Chiefs plus the teams you named.

 

If the Saints win and the Raiders win, we'd also need a Miami win

If Colts win next week and Texans lose, tied at 8-8. 

Current strength of schedule is Houston 26, Colts 23. 

Texans win total is increased with wins by NO, NYJ and Cincy,

Colts win total is increased with wins by Denver, Atlanta and Miami. You can do the math from the remaining games below. Pretty sure this is all correct, but not 100% sure. 

 

Games still to be played:

 

JAX vs NO

Cincy vs Denver

 

NO vs ATL

SD vs Denver

NYJ vs Buff

NE vs Miami

Balt vs Cincy

It's true. Who cares about draft picks. Picking 14th or 17th, whatever...you root for your team to win. I know, "[nasally voice] but a higher pick will..." I got it. If that's a fortunate side effect of losing, then fine, whatever. But actively cheering for your team to lose, especially when they can make the playoffs, is for the birds...

LOL, come on you should have known as soon as we lost to the Texans that our season was over!   IF not then it should have been obvious as soon as we signed Stephen Morris as a QB ... it is pretty clear that Luck will not be playing again until next season.

      What about Leonard at safety?

      Amy Ferrah Fowler would be a beast.

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      Yeah, Ebukam almost looks clumsy next to Latu. He's just so fluid.

      How many games will the Colts win in 2024?

      By Chucklez · Posted

      Did Hou actually get that much better? This really does remain to be seen. I am of the opinion that the signing of Diggs is a signing that has been made about 2 years too late. He won't be bad, but he isn't a top 10 WR in the NFL anymore. I wouldn't put him as any more dangerous that Pittman, so WR's are a push. We have the better RB, Mixon is great and all, but he is not JT. We have the better Oline, and it isn't even close. TE's are a push, we have a lot of upside, but until it is realised im very "meh" on our TEs. QB - I would argue that Stroud is probably more likely to regress to the mean in year 2 vs improve. That rookie season of his was a bit silly, and they had an easier schedule last season too. If he really does build on last year and get even better, then our entire discourse here is probably irrelevant as we will have another Mahomes level QB on our hands to deal with in the AFC and within the AFC South no less. So unless Richardson is also a Mahomes level talent in that scenario, we are done for anyways. To me, our success in this coming season comes down to 2 groups on this entire team. 1. The QB (because... duh) 2. Our DBs. If we even get average play from the DBs, I think this team has the ability to win the whole damned thing (supposing Richardson stays healthy and is what we all hope he is). I would also argue that Houston are paper thin. If they lose a OL starter, Mixon or even one of their starting WRs.... they have a very big drop off. And injuries happen in the NFL. Just sayin...
