Which is why a Clev win is, I think, is better today.

Probably better for a Cleveland win over Denver.

The Colts can win the division, but they would probably have to run the table and finish at 12-5 overall to do so ...... and believe it or not, that's not out of the question. If you look at their remaining schedule, all 6 of those games are winnable, particularly because of the fact that Joe Burrow is out for the season.

So Trevor Lawrence's team beat C.J. Stroud's team, with Stroud not able to get his team close enough for a FG on their final drive of the game ...... the main board should be interesting this week.

Jax is currently the #1 seed. Boy, the AFC is weak. Too bad AR got hurt.

Not necessarily ...... while the robbery was a 4-game swing, a Browns loss today would drop them into what is essentially a 2-game lead over the Colts (the 1-game lead overall, plus the tie-breaker.)

The Broncos, at 5-5, are less likely to be a threat to the Colts than the Browns by season's end ...... the Colts have to take care of business either way, so if they finish the season at 12-5 or 11-6, the Browns finishing one game behind the Colts at 11-6 or 10-7 is still a realistic a possibility if they lose to the Broncos today. They still have to play the Jaguars, the Texans, and the Jets (who have a great defense, albeit a bad offense.)


In other words, it's still too early to tell what will most benefit the Colts in regard to the other teams in the AFC.

If the Colts can make the playoffs, they should have two very fresh and very good sets of legs to run the ball.

I don't think the colts are getting to 11 wins.

They may not even get to 8 wins ...... but considering the fact that there's a realistic chance that they get to 11 or 12, I'm not dismissing the possibility.

Nothing could be truer than what I just heard the host on Indy Sports radio say just now ....... the Colts have 6 games left to play this season, and they are all winnable, ) AND ) they are all losable.

They are capable of beating all of them ...... but they are not overwhelmingly better than any of them.
