Nah !! I've been waiting for years to look at the NFL Standings in late October / early November. It's here. Sure, it's ugly BUT after playing in a division that required 12+ wins (Manning era) to even compete with Indy for the title, I think the AFC South teams deserves to have a year or 2 where 8 or 9 wins gets you a home playoff game.
Personally, I still think Luck is hurting more than they are indicating.
Once they build off of their mistakes, the close losses will become wins. Just think about it ..... missed FGs, pick 6's, the Toby experiment, conservative 2nd halfs, 4-man pass rushs, etc. Fix this stuff over the next 2 weeks and we have ourselves a team that has a realistic playoff chance
Schedule
Titans
@Titans
Colts
@Texans
------------
Jets
Chargers
@Ravens
Falcons
@Saints
Future: Go 3-1 in the division (with the Colts as a must win) / Go 3-2 in the other games
That's 8 wins

I agree,, the Colts game is a must win to have any hope. If the "status quo" remains, the Colts end up with at least 6 wins just from the division. That has to change. They're already 3-0 vs AFCS. The Jags and at least one of tacks/tinhorns need to take em down.
