OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: Uncle Phil's Last Hurrah ??? (vs. 49ers, 12/22)

[nate505]

So according to the Playoff Machine, if the Colts lose today, they could still make the playoffs. But the following would have to happen:

*Colts would need to win out
*Texans need to lose out
*I haven't gone through every scenario in Week 17, but it seems like Denver needs to beat Kansas City, and the Bears need to beat the 49ers. If the Bears lose, then the Falcons need to beat the Rams.
*If the Chiefs win, the Colts are done. If the Broncos win but the 49ers and Rams both win, the Colts can still get in if the Seahawks beat the 49ers in Week 18.

None of those things make sense to me, but hey, it doesn't seem impossible even if the Colts don't win tonight, but at this point, it all feels like a pipe dream.
