We beat the Texans once already. If we beat them again, we won't have to worry about them, anyway. Also, if we wind up in a 2-way tie with the Bengals, the Bengals will necessarily have the tie-breaker over us because of that ...... but if we wind up in a 3-way tie with the Texans AND the Bengals, then the Colts will have the tie-breaker because of a better record among the 3 teams. The Colts would be 2-1 in such games, the Bengals will be 1-1 in such games (they lost to the Texans), and the Texans will be 1-2 in such games.


So my suggestion would be to not necessarily go pulling your hair out if the Texans wind up winning this game ...... it just might wind up helping the Colts more than hurting them ...... and more significantly, the Colts need to win their own games instead of wishing and hoping that they get the maximum amount of help from games that are being played elsewhere.

Beat the Texans, and that win by them just now could only help the Colts ...... lose to the Texans, and we aren't going anywhere, anyway.
