    They have the exact same schedule as the Texans except for just two games.

    The Broncos and the Steelers.

    By comparison, Texans already lost to the Chiefs and they play the Brngals.

    It's hilarious watching that one guy attempt to block all of those men. He immediately realized this was a bad idea. LOL!

    Maybe because the LBGT side is on a pretty good winning streak right now.

    I'm going to assume the positive and not assume that he's a jackass.

    No, they are over for the playoff, no team had to come back from the 1-4 starting to go to the playoff, I do not think so. Wish they has a bad record to draft a QB.

    Had the Texans have beat the Colts two weeks ago I would've thought of them as favorites to win the division. Now I see them as a slight underdog.

    Yeah, the Colts might finally get their act together. But the Texans just may be in the process of doing the same thing. The Wildcard, however, likely isn't even a remote possibility.

    I think 1993 oilers are the only ones to do it. Started 1-4 won 11 straight

    This division is so bad, 8-8 might just win it.

    What everyone is missing out on from last night's game is that the Colts actually played the Patriots well. They led at half time. Luck threw no interceptions. Gore is now running the ball better. They shut Gronk out in the first half and generated some pass rush.

    They played well for a half. I can see why they'd look at that as a moral victory given how absolutely awful they've looked against everyone but the Texans, but it's still just a moral victory in a loss. If that moral victory leads to Andrew Luck turning things around and their defense being better and their running game getting going, then it'll be valid, if not meh.

    Not bad... until you realize that they were a possible Super Bowl pick to begin the year (if for no other reason besides that Luck has progressed each season and led his teams to a further round each time).

    They're obviously not as good as people expected... which is why Pagano likely takes the fall.

    WC's are coming out of the EAST and NORTH. It's division or bust and right now division is still in play. In the next 4, Colts could go 1-3 and we could go 2-2. That would put both at 4-6 with 6 to play. But our last 6 are definitely more difficult than their last 6.

    Texans aren't winning jack this year. Colts could continue to be mediocre and they'd still win this division, because every other team is worse than mediocre. Have you seen the teams that we have beaten so far? These are the two worst teams in the NFL. Texans are probably the 5th or 6th worst team in the NFL.

    Yes, you are right. I heard someone mentioned this on the sport radio a few days ago, but I forgot it.

    The colts losing to the patriots is like the Texans losing at Indianapolis. It's almost inevitable. It doesn't necessarily mean the Colts are worse. If anything, they made last night's game more respectable than last year's blowout.

    Speaking of the expected progress of Luck; you know what other QBs as young as him have gone further in the playoffs since he got drafted? 1. And he had beastmode and the LOB to take him that far. The patriots are just a superior team right now. Brady isn't giving up the AFC throne so easily.

    Pagano might not survive the fall-out from the embarrassment of the fake punt fail. Or they could turn things around. Could go either way.

    Plus we're just talking about them winning the division, not the super bowl.

    Even if we make the playoffs, our team will get demolished by a real contender. No point for moral victories to say we made the playoffs as if that's our low bar for success.

    Sure... but that's not what the national pundits were spewing out.

    They basically ignored their o-line and defense this off-season... and if not for a mini-resurgence from Gore, they'd still be suffering from the beyond dumb decision to trade a 1st round pick for Trent Richardson.

    Then again, the Broncos are a hollow 6-0... the Bengals are 6-0 but nobody will believe in them till they actually show it in the playoffs... so maybe the Colts still do have a shot if they make the playoffs.
