Colts can win out and still miss playoffs

Actually, I look at the bigger picture ...... if the Colts win their final 2 games to finish the season at 10-7 overall and miss the playoffs, that would far exceed the expectations of most Colts fans prior to the start of the season, ESPECIALLY considering the fact that Anthony Richardson missed almost the entire season due to injury. Gardner Minshew has been an adequate back-up, but he has not been the kind of QB that a team can count on to perhaps bail them out of an otherwise bad game by the rest of the team to steal a win.

One of the Colts' wins came against the team with the best record in the NFL (the Ravens), and they were flat-out robbed of another win against another very good team (the Browns) ...... so while I was extremely frustrated at their losses to the Bengals and the Falcons down the home-stretch, I won't necessarily be thinking that it served them right to miss out on the post-season if they do wind up going 10-7 overall.
