A loss ends the Colts season

As it has been well-documented on here and just about everywhere else, a loss would officially knock the Colts out of playoff contention with two games left. Obviously hoping to avoid that, the Colts face a tough challenge in doing so.

They already face a slim chance of making the playoffs as it stands. Entering this matchup, the Colts have a 2% chance of pulling off the miracle of making the postseason.

If they come out of Monday night’s game with a loss as expected, the 2019 campaign will officially be over for the Colts.
