There is still a chance. A small one, sure, but still...a chance, even after a bad loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 16. The Indianapolis Colts, a team once 7-1 and on top of the AFC, have a very real opportunity to finish 8-9 and miss the playoffs again. It has been a decade since the team won the AFC South.
Should lots of things go correctly with two games left, though, Indy could make the playoffs. The situation is somewhat simple on the surface. The Colts have to win their final two games, while the Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars need to lose their final two.
