Colts and AFC South

[Pez]

1. 3-2 into the bye is huge for this team. We could have beat the chargers, we could have beat the raiders. Chargers was a Vinatieri fluke, even though we stunk up the place vs the raiders, we were in a position to win at the end of the game.

2. Houston has got to be stunned. Surely they thought we would lose this game and they would have sole possession of the AFC south. Tough shit.

3. Houston has to play KC next week, then us the week following. If Houston loses vs the Chiefs and we beat them in week 7, they will finish that stretch 3-4, and we will be 4-2.

4. The Colts have a great reason to feel a sense of accomplishment. This is the hardest game on our schedule and we won it going into the bye. Aside from the Texans two weeks from now, our next opponent that has a winning record is the Saints in week 14.

5. Related to above, what we should see is the coaches and team rising to this opportunity. We can easily win 8 more games this season. We should, I hope we do. Use the bye to get healthy and stay hungry. We absolutely have to beat Houston in week 7.

Remaining schedule:

7. Texans (3-2)
8. Broncos (1-4)
9. Steelers (1-4)
10. Dolphins (0-4)
11. Jags (2-3)
12. Texans (3-2)
13. Tacks (2-3)
14. Bucs (2-3)
15. Saints (4-1)
16. Panthers (3-2)
17. Jags (2-3)

It's totally possible we only lose one of those games. Seriously, 13-3 is possible with Jacoby Brissett.
