Yeah I think titans could beat them. It’s in Houston so we will see if stroud is back.

 

Broncos scored. Could be down to one procession.

Actually hits common opponents before conference record. Let me look at it a little closer.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

One scored game in Denver lol.

Does anyone have the answer if colts are 9-7 and Texans are 8-8 going into week 18 and Texans win. Who gets tiebreaker.

Colts would have tiebreaker against the Texans.

I have them both at 6-6 vs common opponents, so would hit conference record next and we have them there.

So let’s hope titans beat them. I think Tannehill would give titans a better chance but it will probably be Levis.

As long as colts win against raiders the division will be up for grabs still week 18. So imagine both games will be on at the same time.

 

The raiders QB is a typical pocket passer and will eat this zone up if colts are not careful. 

What we have going for us is the Raiders are playing the Chiefs in a big divisional rivalry.  They will go all out.  It will be like a Super Bowl for them.  If they lose they could be very deflated and will then play us on a shorter week for them and on the road.  Lines up pretty well for us actually.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Broncos have ball and could tie it up on this drive.

I’d also expect the Colts to respond like they did against the Steelers after the bad game vs Cincy.  I think you will see a much better effort next week.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Broncos are a two point conversion from tiring this game. Lol

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Tie game in Denver lol

[w87r]

Its alright, just increases the chance of multiple team tie at 10-7.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Broncos have a pretty doable final two games. Really puts even more pressure on colds if broncos win this.

Yeah but they have two pretty doable games. Colts really can’t lose either of the next two.

I think the last couple weeks have showed that none of these games are going to be give mes.

 

Broncos still have 2 division games, regardless of how well those teams are playing.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Pats getting close to FG range.

[w87r]

Wow deep. Mile high helps

[Happy2BeHere]

Hahahah Denver calling those timeouts burned them hard!!! Hahaha

[holeymoley99]

Good win for Pats, Broncos in trouble now.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Wow pats just got the game winning FG with a struggling kicker.

Not over yet.

[1959Colts]

I guess I'm happy NE won?

[w87r]

This definitely brings 9-8 playoffs berth possibility into play if we lose to Raiders but beat the Texans.

 

 

Let's not do that though.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This game doesn’t really do much much for colts. It doesn’t hurt or help that much. Just increases chabded of a two way tie.

[Happy2BeHere]

Ahh that just felt so good to see Sean Payton call back to back timeouts on defense in hopes to get the ball back and only to get burned by the pats on the 3rd down play hahaha just feels gooooood!!

That would increase the chances of it being a two way tie with bengals I think.

Or beat raiders but lose to Texans after Texans lose to Tenn.

I predicted 10-7 before season but way things are going has to end in some crazy scenario , nice thing is we have best AFC record among the clubs battling. 

[1959Colts]

Lots of really ugly football games played today.

What does?

 

If 9-8 gets in, there will be 3 or more teams tied.

 

5 teams could get there, well 6 if Raiders win out. 3 will definitely be tied at 9-8 if the 7 spot comes down to that 

 

 

 

Biggest chance of 2 way tie is 10-7 now.

 

 

As there are only 4 teams that can do it. 2 of those play each other and make that 3 that actually can.

 

Steelers and Bengals have tough schedules. Can't see either winning both games, but we've just about seen it all this season.

In week 18, I want there to be a bunch of 9-7 teams heading into Sunday.  I want to see a tv screen that has multiple split images of the reactions of NFL fans as several teams are eliminated within a span of 90 seconds.  A playoff contender misses a GW FG, gets eliminated, and their fans cry while the other teams fans rejoice as their teams are still alive.  About 30 seconds later, another team makes a GW FG and eliminates another team...and so on.  The final dagger occurs when the Jags lose to Tenn and the script is flipped from last year's finale - Indy is down by 24-17, scores a TD with seconds left and decides to go for 2...winning it 25-24.  A lot of Antacid would be sold that evening in Houston.    

My heart wouldn’t take that

I had us at 10-7 and losing tie breaker for division to Jags and missing wild card berth as well

I was going to say just win your last two games at home.  

[1959Colts]

This next home game will be another annoying spectacle, with all the stupid Raider fans, dressed like skeletons, in our own stadium, cheering for the opposing team.

[RollerColt]

Unpopular opinion:

 

I think all teams should have an extra bye week for Christmas. Then return to play on New Years. 
 

Also, I’m having a difficult time seeing how we can matchup well against the Raiders who have Crosby, Adams and Jacobs…

Yeah if smith and Pittman are not back I don’t see it. It’s a bad matchup. 
 

NFL likes Christmas games.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

So weird how this is coming down to raiders just like in 21. Colds stars need to step up and show the way. Your highest lead players need to look like stars. That is what is disappointing in this and the bengals game.
