Quote:The Colts have already beaten all three of their rivals this year, two of them with their backup quarterback. I'd say losing divisional games has more of an effect on not making the playoffs than any game any of these teams will play this year.

 

The Colts aren't good. Even Colts fans will tell you that. But they're good enough, and the teams in their division are terrible, and it didn't take that long for them to prove that once again this year.

 

As far as the statistic goes, I never said anything about disproving it or it being incorrect. I said it had no bearing because the Colts are a very special case. Even at 0-2, I think they were still the favorites to win the division, as they should've been.

 

You are right and this is what's mindboggling.  When Peyton Manning was in the division, OK fair enough.  But these guys.  This year?  How???  Explain to me how?   It's hard to put into words how stupid this is.  If it were just us, I could understand.  But the entire division banding together to annoint this trainwreck the official ruler of their dumpster fire.   Why??
