The Colts will be sitting back at home this January after a disappointing finish to the season. It seems that last year’s trip to the playoffs was an aberration compared to their other recent seasons. But quite frankly, Indianapolis should be playing this week.
There were several games that the Colts could have won to put themselves into one of the games this weekend. The opener went into overtime after some poor kicking from Adam Vinatieri. Vinny also missed a kick to win in Pittsburgh, and missed two kicks against Tennessee.
Winning any two of those games would have put them in the playoffs this weekend.
