The Colts control their destiny here. The last time an 11-5 team didn't make the playoffs was the 2008 Cheaters, and that's happened a total of two times in NFL history. The remaining game on the schedule that scares me the most is Dallas.

I see the Colts finishing 9-7/10-6 now.

Giants and Cowboys and Miami I think they beat.

That leaves the division games. I can't see a sweep happening, but 2-1 is doable, would be 10 wins.

Maybe they drop on unexpectedly though and end up at 9 wins.

And I'm going to go on record to say that they will run the table.

No remaining games should scare anyone. If Houston or Dallas are the cream of the crop, then we've got a good shot. Houston has BARELY won its last two games and looked mediocre. Dallas...hah! Another top defense for Luck to dissect.

11-5 looks good. Book it, Dano. :eek:

It's wild that I feel pretty confident that we will get another shot at houston and give them a game we can win.

I just realized they are the only +.500 team remaining on our schedule.

No one expected the playoff this year, especially after the 1-5 start, this sh** is just gravy. if we get to 8-5 with three weeks to go I might change my tune, but hell, I thought 8 wins would be a miracle. This really takes a great deal of pressure off out team.

Why stop there? If you think they're going to win 10 straight games, you might as well keep going.

Well, let's not go overboard...:D

I’ll go out on a limb and say this team has one more shittastic loss this season, after which posters here will be up in arms.

That seems reasonable. I like the idea of sweeping the season, but this team is so young and had a lot of issues being consistent on Defense.

Probably. I keep waiting for the rookies to hit the wall, they have played a full college season now. I think two more losses. Ten and Jax will want a piece on their home turf. Dallas always seems to have our number.

None of these other playoff teams want to see Luck in the playoffs. All the other potential wildcard teams have crap at QB. They don’t want a well protected Luck coming to town.
