Indianapolis Colts can Still Win AFC South

J.M. Nicholas — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 04:42:35 +0000

The Indianapolis Colts (9-4) continue to shock the NFL. Not only have they put themselves into the driver’s seat for a wildcard playoff spot in the AFC, but they are still within striking distance of a division title. This reloaded Colts team has stood tall all season long, with a never-say-die attitude. Regardless of wins or losses, the Colts have fought tooth-and-nail, until the final buzzer in every game this season.

The Colts have put themselves into uncharted territory, by winning nine games with a rookie quarterback, while being coached by a brand new coaching staff. On top of that, this franchise finds themselves still able to regain the AFC South division title. The Colts will play two of their final three regular season games against the Houston Texans, and can still aquire a first-round home game in the playoffs.

The Texans have a record of 11-2 so far this year, but have been tested and exposed a few times recently. Houston won two consecutive overtime games in November, but was also blown away by the New England Patriots in week 14. The Colts have won seven of their last eight games, but will face a big test against a Texans team on the rebound.

AFC South Breakdown After Week Four

The Indianapolis Colts (1-2) were the first AFC South team to have a bye week. The Colts, in fact, are the only team in the AFC South to have a bye so far this season. Indianapolis had week four off, and had the chance to see how things unfolded for the rest of their division rivals.

After a month of regular season games, the Houston Texans (4-0) have pulled way ahead in the division race. The Texans are humming on both sides of the ball, and look like one of the best teams in the league. The Jacksonville Jaguars (1-3) defeated the Colts in their first divisional game, for their only win so far this season. The Jags look uneven and flat, but were able to use big plays to outlast and outscore the Colts in week three. The Tennessee Titans (1-3) have given up at least 34 points in every game this season, and were soundly thumped by the undefeated Texans 38-14 in week four.

The Colts don’t have another divisional game until they travel to Nashville in week 8. By that time, both the Colts and Titans could be nearly out of the race for the AFC South title. If the first month of the season is any indication, then the AFC South crown could very well remain in the lone star state for some time.
