The Colts could have taken a commanding lead in the AFC South with a win last night against the Texans. Both teams entered the game with the same record but a victory would have given Indianapolis essentially a two-game lead in the division because the Colts had already won the first meeting and thus would hold the head-to-head tiebreaker.
But Colts fans are left to wonder “What if?” this morning after an officiating controversy in the final moments of the game.
After the two-minute warning and after the Colts had burned all their timeouts, with 1:48 to play on a second-and-9, Deshaun Watson ran with the ball and was tackled by Darius Leonard.
