Moving Forward

I’ll have thoughts on the game much later today.  For now, a couple of notes on the schedule:

• Indy has played four teams with a winning record through five games.
• The worst team on the Colts schedule going forward or backwards is 1-3 Dallas.
• The Colts play one game on the road against a team with a losing record the rest of this year (@ 2-3 Oakland).
• Indy has six home games left.  Three are against 2010 division winners.  All three currently have losing records (Dallas, San Diego, Cincy).
• The other three games are against AFC South teams.  All have winning records.
• Counting ties, but not tiebreakers, the Colts play 7 of their final 11 games against teams currently tied for the lead in their division.
• The Colts and Titans have positive point differentials.  Jacksonville has been outscored by 30 on the year.
• San Diego is +34 points on the year and is 2-3
• Indy is tied for fifth in the NFL in point differential with New England.  The Titans are +2, and Pittsburgh is +1 over Indy.
