Default Turdsday Night Football.

The Texicant's uniforms are awful, almost as bad as the Charger Bananas.

The Texans winning would benefit the Colts more.

If the Texans beat the Bills, it will be Buffalo's 4th loss of the season.

If the Texans beat the Bills and the Colts fail to hold off the Texans for the AFC South division title, then the Colts will have nobody to blame but themselves ...... the Colts are 8-2, and they control their own division title destiny with a rather significant cushion. Teams that are 8-2 shouldn't need outside help to hold off a team within their division that started the season at 3-5, as the Texans did before barley getting by the Jaguars and the Titans.

I’m not sure I agree with this, for a variety of reasons.

The first priority is always to win the division and a Texans loss would help more in that regard.

Buffalo is only one game ahead of Houston in the standings and would pose no threat to us until the playoffs. If the Texans win tonight, they’d only be two games back in the win column, with two games left against us.

Houston is a far bigger threat to us in terms of making the playoffs than Buffalo is.

We should definitely be rooting for Buffalo.

The Colts are 8-2. If they can't hold off the Texans for the division title, regardless of the outcome of tonight's game, then they suck ...... and if the Colts suck, they won't be going anywhere in the playoffs, anyway.

The Colts need to be thinking about trying to get one of the top-2 seeds in the playoffs, not about the easiest path to a division title in a division that is mediocre. Josh Allen and the Bills are a proven perennial contender, and getting a higher playoff seed than the Bills would mean that a potential playoff game between the 2 teams would be played in Indianapolis instead of Buffalo ...... to me, that's a lot more important than hoping that a team that started the season at 3-5 catches the Colts, who started the season at 8-2.

The 3rd quarter is over, and the Bills' offense has only scored 9 points so far ...... they got a touchdown on a 97-yard kick-off return late in the 2nd quarter.

For some reason Josh Allen has become a complete moron tonight....he's practically giving the game away!

This game reminds me of the 2009 game between the Colts and the Dolphins, a game in which the Dolphins dominated both sides of the ball, but Peyton Manning pulled one out of his ass with a late TD drive in the 4th quarter.


https://www.jt-sw.com/football/boxes...009-02-ind-mia


It was extremely hot and humid in southern Florida on that Monday in early September, and the Dolphins advantage in Time-of-Possession was 45:07 to 14:53. )
