Colts 2021 Nunc Coepi

Outcomes that help the Colts today:

Ravens over the Browns
Jags over the Titans
Chiefs over the Raiders
Lions over the Broncos
Giants over the Chargers
49ers over the Bengals
Bucs over the Bills

So Colts fans want this game to hold up for Vikings and it looks like it will. The Bucs over Bills, Giants over Chargers, and 49’ers over Bengals all help the Colts because these losers are in front of them.

Looking behind the Colts, fans still want to see the Chiefs hold the Raiders back which also reduces the motivation for Raiders to play strong against them. Sorry CM. Last thing the Colts want is a matchup with the Raiders that amounts to a win and in type of game and it well could.

Colts fans also want the Ravens to beat the Browns and the Lions to beat the Broncos.

It will be interesting to see how the Titans are coming off the bye week.

OMG! We completely agree…. LOL

KC is killing LV. I can see LV spotting KC 21 in the first quarter and then outscoring them for the win…

 

[Ingomike]

Don’t forget Colts play SATURDAY NIGHT…

 

[Ingomike]

Two games on both three score shutouts in the first quarter…

 

[Ingomike]

The Raiders are still home in bed…

35-0 before the half. Heck with 1:45 left KC could get ball back and ad a FG…

Browns are killing Ravens and Jackson is out with an ankle injury. They haven't said how bad, but they took him to the locker room on a cart.

Ouch. This hurts.
35/zip KC
21/zip Cowboy

The Ravens failed to help the Colts, though as damaged as they are as a team with injuries we may be rooting the wrong direction there. Browns are right on the Colts heels. Jags failed to beat the Titans. Chiefs did beat LV.

Only one of three games went the Colts way in the early round. However the late round has critical game to the Colts. If the Bengals win and the Bills lose the Colts will move into the seventh and last playoff spot…

Wonder why they said the Bengals needed to win?

The tie breaker involves head to head win percentage among the teams that are tied. The Browns beat the Bengals earlier in the season, so if the Bengals are among the teams that are tied then the Browns get credit for that win. However, if the Bengals aren't among the teams that are tied, then the Browns don't get credit for that win. If the Browns don't get credit for that win, then the Colts win over the Bills would give them a better percentage than the Browns. If the Browns get credit for that win, then they tie for percentage and it goes to the next tie breaker, which the Browns would win. (This assumes I actually understand all of this, which is not a given.) Basically, with several weeks left, it is way too early to worry about such things.

If scrambled eggs were written out that is how I imagine it would look typed out. LOL

But it is fun to speculate and root for teams that help the Colts…

Bengals and Bucs lost

Bengals and Bucs lost

I think you mean Bengals and Bills lost. Both good for the Colts.

 

[Ingomike]

Colts are in position 6 in the playoff race. However they are there based on tie breakers and are in a group of five 7-6 teams trying to win two spots…

Yep my bad. That’s what I meant.

 

[churchmouse]

Bengals and Bucs lost

Tampa won did they not. OT I believe.

 

[churchmouse]

Bears and Packers are hooking it out.

 

[ChristianPatriot]

As far as playoff odds now…

If we go 3-1, regardless who the loss is to, it’s basically a lock that we make the playoffs.

If we go 2-2, again regardless of who wins/losses are, it’s basically a 50/50 coin flip.

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Pretty remarkable that we started 1-4 and we still control our own destiny to get into the playoffs.
