Listening to Colts radio on RADIO.com and the guy said “Bills are a matchup nightmare for this team. They’re going my to pick on (whatever CB he said) over and over.”
I find it so interesting that Chiefs fans think they know the Colts better than Colts fans know their own team and Colts announcers know their team. |

Rivers, as a 17-year vet, should do well vs. BUF's defense. As long as he doesn't have to try and play catch-up too much. At this point in his career, he just can't be asked to throw 40 times. But if IND's defense can keep things contained, and they get their run game going, Rivers can play game-manger most of the time, then they have a real chance at stealing this game.
A lot depends on how Allen comes out. If he has the jitters like last season, IND could easily steal this one. |

But considering one of the first threads on the Colts forum is “Rivers sucks”, I’m feeling good about that. The thread basically talks about how rivers stats this year are better than he actually has played. And the stats aren’t even that good |

But he is pretty cagey, and he does have a solid record in the WC round. Problems come up if you take away his run game and/or he has to come back from two scores. He'll start pressing, which is when he starts trying to fit balls where they just don't belong. But Allen's stats in the playoffs are not good. And we all watched him implode last season vs. HOU. And the Texans had one of the worst defenses, if not the worst defense, in the playoffs last season. And IND has one of the best defenses in the playoffs, so there has to be serious concern about how Allen will handle that this season. If the Colts defense can get consistent pressure and stay disciplined on the back end, and Allen has trouble with that, BUF will be in a lot of trouble, because they don't have a run game to lean on. However, I still expect Rivers to find a way to give the game away at the end, which is why I like IND to cover, but not win. |

Diggs (oblique) and Beasley (knee) both listed as questionable.
Obviously they will play, but how close are they to 100%? |

A team that hasn't won a playoff game in 26 years (the Bills), giving almost 7 points?
Take the Colts and the 6.5 points. The Bills offense and Josh Allen have been underwhelming against AFC playoff teams... averaging just under 20 points per game with a 1-2 record. |

Only the last 6 games matter. Josh Allen is MVP. |

This doesn't count for Chiefs fans though, right?

"The Colts defense has struggled down the stretch" Edit: Looked up the radio guy's comment, and he's right. They're averaging almost 28 points per game given up over the last 7. And that includes 3 games against teams with 4-12 and 1-15 records. Prisco even wrote this morning: "The Colts defense has waned in the second half of the season, which has to be a concern facing Josh Allen and the high-flying Buffalo offense. Indianapolis was once the top-ranked defense in the league, but they fell off in a big way in the final six games." https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/p...d-browns-home/ .
