K.C. -5

[coltsorioles]

K.C.  -5 point favorite

[lance_m8]

home team always gets a 3 point favorite so really its KC -2 

[yankeeclipper]

KC will be test for our defense. We need to put pressure on Mahomes - get some sacks and turnovers. Luck can move ball against KC defense.  This could be a shoot out. 

 

[Flash7]

We're underdogs -- playing a very good team at their home. It will be a tough match.

[Mr.Debonair]

Sounds about right. Hill, Kelce, Conley and others will def give this defense trouble. We need to watch some of that Baltimore tape and try to emulate that.

 

Our offense should be able to score but have to watch out for Jones and Ford!

 

Go Colts

First team to 50 wins!

[Catloaf]

I feel like this is going to be a repeat of... was it the year we won the SB?... where it was a giant shootout between us and KC?

[Jackie Daytona]

Lots of years we have been in shoot outs, come from behinds with KC..... most recently down like 38-10 at home......  I don't think this year is that kinda team, but I expect a good, high scoring type of game.... IF we manage to knock off KC, and are healthy......  All bets are off for the AFC  CG.....

 

[ricker182]

Stop Kelce and keep Hill in front of you and Colts win.  

Not easy to stop, but doable.

No, the year we won the SB we beat KC with great run D.  You’re thinking of the year of the great comeback win. 45-44.  Lost to NE bad the next week.

Or 2003 when the Colts got to the AFCCG after winning a high scoring game with KC.

[GoColts8818]

KC offense will be hard to slow down but the offense can’t get shut out for 35 minutes of game time again either.  KC isn’t as good as Houston on defense but Luck has to play better than he did today in the second half.

Only this time we don't have Trent Richardson to fumble the ball for us.

[fatboy]

We were underdogs to Texans today.  KC has a frightening O, but their D is weak.  They were 3-3 over last six games.  We got this.  

[Caffrey]

We should have Tyquan Lewis back and that should have our D-Line rotation to keep them fresh.  

[USAFHoosier]

If the Defense can get a turnover or 2 and a few stops the Colts will be in good shape.  Their defense cant stop anything.  Also cannot let them get a few score lead since they have a good pass rush.

[IinD]

Can't lie, I feel this would be our super bowl. If we beat them, I don't think anyone else will beat us.

Like the confidence, but I don't think we have played an offense like this all season. Will be interesting to see the results, to say the least. Lol

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

It really would be fitting if we were able to beat KC and play the patriots in the AFC championship game. The story would just be unbelievable. I don’t want the ravens or chargers. I think we can beat the patriots.

I can see KC blowing us out. I really don’t know how we will play on defense especially.

You could be right.

We haven't really been blown out this year except in NE when everybody was injured.

If we beat KC, I'm hoping we get to play the AFCCG in the tiny soccer stadium. Luck is a soccer fan.

Considering the coaching fiasco last off season..we may be destined to play new England

[runthepost]

KC has also lost games this year by 3 points, 1 point, and 7 points. Only home lost to the chargers by 1 point. 

[shasta519]

Wow...that's a pretty low spread. Then again, it's the Divisional round of the playoffs.

 

I love the Colts chances...but my confidence level will definitely be different that today. KC is just a whole different offense. 

 

But it's a win/win. Either the Colts win or KC wins and helps show the Colts what they need to win the same game next season.

As Colts fans who have witnessed the Manning era, we have seen first hand what smash mouth football can do to high powered offenses come playoff time.  I like the Colts chances if they continue to dominate teams physically.

That's a really good point. We've been KC before and been stunned by what were perceived as inferior opponents.

[NDcolt]

Jan football is won in the trenches, can we dominate KC’s dline & control the game like we did at Houston?  This is the KEY to our magical run!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

KC defintly didn’t want us.

True

[Dark Superman]

Man, I didn't want to play KC in the playoffs. I think we match up horribly against them. But, looks like we'll get a real taste of how legit our Colts are.

[NorthernBlue]

If we can run the ball as well as we did against HOU, we totally got this. Keep Mahomes off the field, grind out long drives, tire out that defense. Build a lead and force Mahomes into a mistake. He's amazing but still liable to a pick or two. Gotta make em pay every time we get a stop.

 

Offense can't get shut out like they did in the second half today.

We're playing like the early 2000s Pats. It's crazy.

Kelce is going to most likely have a great game but we can stop Hill and thier run game

We match up well... we have a fast fluid defense that relies on zone so the deep balls to tyrekekek shouldn’t be an issue. 

 

KC defense is terrible and they don’t have Kareem hunt anymore. 

 

Dont forget Mahomes is in his second year. Everyone said Watson loves the big stage but he choked up in the playoffs. 

 

Regular season doesn’t matter in the playoffs
