Why The Colts Will Score More Than The Other Guys – Texans Edition

USP NFL: INDIANAPOLIS COLTS AT HOUSTON TEXANS S FBN USA TX

Hello, Colts fans. The key to football is to score more points than the other guys.

I know this and you know this, but our friends in the media need something to talk about in order to justify their jobs. Earlier this summer, a certain baseball announcer acknowledged to me that yes, I was right, the team really does just need to score more than the other guys. Yet each time a game rolls around, there he is giving us keys to the game that never include the bit about scoring.

As he is a highly-compensated professional, I figure that the creation of keys that turn no locks must be a growth industry. So now, it’s my turn.

Welcome to Why The Colts Will Score More Than The Other Guys

Who: The Indianapolis Colts vs. the Houston Texans.

What: The AFC Wildcard Round. Playoffs?!?! You kiddin’ me?!?! Playoffs?!?!?

Where: NRG Stadium, Houston, TX. It feels like the boys just played there.

When: 4:30 PM Eastern. Saturday, January 5th. TV: ESPN. I guess ESPN is using their regular crew. I really have no idea, because I haven’t watched a MNF game all season. I have heard – on multiple occasions – that Jason Witten isn’t very good behind the mic. Guess we’ll find out.

Why the Colts will score more than the other guys:

The author is beside himself right now. I don’t know if it’s the intense amount of carousing we did for New Year’s or what, but I’ve been “writing” this “column” for 4 seasons now, and this is the first time the boys have advanced to the playoffs.

*pops champagne*

Someone get me Vinatieri’s number so I can ask him what to expect and how I’m supposed to behave during the playoffs.

1. H is for….

Well, Houston, of course, as they are the opponent.

It’s also for high school, as many of you know Andrew Luck played in Houston for Stratford High. Like most intelligent people, he got out of there, and only returns when the local NFL team needs to take an “L.”

I feel like I’m missing another one though…

It’s not the Hilton Hotel chain, which was founded in 1919 about 300 miles from Houston (Useless knowledge FTW)…

Ah yes, Eugene Marquis Hilton. It’s TY. Mr. Hilton if you’re nasty.

TY has flat owned Houston. I mean, damn. Has there been a team in NFL history who has been so consistently punked in their home stadium by an opponent like the Texans have by TY Hilton? I’m going to go with nah.

My dearly beloved QC told me that Houston is TY’s homeostasis. Homeostasis. Got it? Now, this was prior to her unfairly getting upset with me and thinking something that just isn’t true, but she’s dead on with Hilton. Ho-me-oh-stay-sis. TY. The Queen. My Queen.

The Queen abides. My love.

2. Indy’s finest ladies 

If you’ve been paying attention – and I’m going to go with no, you haven’t been – the author has used our Indiana Pacers Pacemates to spur good luck for the boys. The karma is good.

Let’s holla at our girls…

H is not for Houston, it’s for holla at the Pacemates, who are going to continue to bring our boys good luck.

My love QC says this…

 

Colts 27, Texans 24
