My only question is will chiefs sit players. Reid doesn’t have a history I don’t think of doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anyway colts can possibly still get the 3rd seed and play dolphins at home? If Cleveland wins and Miami loses, pretty sure Miami drops to #6. Cleveland has better conference record and no H2H. I think I heard the Chiefs were locked in the #3 seed? Would go to common opponent, because we would have same conference record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if Steelers lose(we'll know the result), all the Colts need is a tie to make the playoffs. Wont have to win to get in at that point. Not that we would be playing for a tie. Nice information to have, if you're the Colts, in a tight close game late. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJpalmbeacher2 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 One thing going against the jags and bills. The Steelers need a win and either of them to lose. That could help the colts win the division if the jags lose. A Home playoff game would be nice for the local fans in indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2006Coltsbestever Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 1. If the Colts win they are in at #7 no matter what. 2. If the Colts lose they are out no matter what. 3. If the Colts win and Jags lose, we win the division and are in at #4. 4. If the Colts tie the Texans and Steelers lose, we are in at #7. Both the Texans and Colts would be 9-7-1 but we would have the tiebreaker head to head 1-0-1. 5. If the Colts tie the Texans and Jags lose, we win the division. We own the tiebreaker over the Steelers which as of now was a critical win for us. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colts can’t make the playoffs with nine wins because the Texans would have beat them. I think some of you are taking this tie thing a little too realistically. I’ve watched just about every Colts game since 1991. They have tied once in that time. Also a tie doesn’t help the Texans unless the Jags lose.

If we win Saturday, I will be rooting for them bigtime on Sunday. Where the Titans screwed up is, they never got a good QB to compliment Henry from roughly 2019-2022 when they had chances of getting to the SB. Tannehill isn't a scrub, but he is basically above average. Mustache is playing similar to how Tannehill always played. Tannehill = Above average, respectable, but you are not winning a SB or getting there with him unless you have a dominant defense, their defense was good but not close to great. Henry's career was wasted basically regarding getting a ring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens every year in the league. Putting all the pieces together is hard. If the Bills don’t do it this year they might have missed their chance with an elite quarterback. Players move, coaches move it’s hard to win a championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could go down to the wire and into overtime. With the stakes on the line, it won’t be easy for either team. and that’s not what you said. You said the Steelers game had no impact. It does. Will it? Probably not. But if the game comes down to a multiple possession game in overtime, then the Colts strategy can and should change entirely, unless the Steelers win, which they would already know the outcome. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rolled with him and had too paying him all that money. It got them 2 Division Titles but no SB appearance or SB win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restinpeacesweetchloe Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Funny thing about a tie Colts would not know if a tie will get them in at that moment. We would know Steelers outcome but not jags outcome. So they will be playing to win . It could be a different story if they knew the outcome of both games before they played.

No. If the Colts tie and Steelers lose they finish 9-8, Colts would still be in at #7. Steelers play before the Colts. Even if the Jags won, Jags would just win the division, it would be Houston and Pitt out. Not sure why some don't understand that. We would have the tiebreaker over both. I get it, the chances of a tie happening is like 1% but the Steelers lose, a tie would be a like a win for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006Coltsbestever Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Lets say it ends up like this: #3 seed = KC #4 seed = Jags 10-7 Division Champs #5 seed = Browns #6 seed = either Bills or Dolphins, one of those 2 teams will be a 2 seed. #7 seed = Colts 9-7-1 Texans would be 9-7-1, Steelers 9-8 and out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Well, they did just tie the Texans last year, and would have tied them a few years ago, had Frank taken it. It's just something to keep in the back of your mind. Don't do what Frank did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they signed Tannehill, their goal was to win a SB with a RB like Henry and a good defense so it was a fail. Vrabel would even say so. They had a couple of very good years, and it is hard to win a SB but many in here set us to the same standards. I have read many posts in here from some saying Ballard will never get us to a SB so he is a fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
