Losing 3-out-of-4 games will cause many fans to panic and/or declare the season dead, but that is not necessarily the reality of the situation.

The Colts may or may not fold down the stretch, but I don't think that it's a foregone conclusion ...... especially since this team has only had one really bad game so far this season, against the Steelers. They have had 2 or 3 slightly sub-par games (including the win over the Cardinals), but only one really bad one.

They’re at Jax and Seattle in the next two games. Neither of which they are likely to win. That would put them at 8-6 and probably behind or tied with both Houston and Jacksonville.

Houston plays KC and the Raiders the next two weeks. If they go 1-1 they’ll be tied with us but ahead with the tiebreaker. Jacksonville plays us at home next week and the Jets at home the week after. We haven’t won in Jacksonville in like 10 years. If they win both of those, they’ll be 10-4 and a full 2 games ahead, with the tiebreaker against us.

They DESPERATELY needed to win today on their home field and they didn’t.

I honestly don’t think they make the playoffs now. This was an absolutely DEVASTATING loss.
