Just interested in talking about this game with the other sides perspective. I think we can all agree the past means nothing at this point, and the whole "curse" of the Chiefs losing to the Colts in the playoffs shouldn't hold any weight.
You guys have a phenomenal offense, but reading through this thread I was just a little surprised at the extreme confidence. Though, I guess it's to be expected when you have such an outstanding player at the QB position. I've been there, trust me lol.
Realistically, I expect the Colts to lose this game, but I do believe it will be a competitive game, and if it comes down to the end, I like our chances with Luck in the clutch.
I'm hoping we'll be able to control the ball a bit with our run game, and keep Mahomes and co. off the field as much as possible. I'm also hoping that our Cover-2 shell can force him into a potential mistake if he gets impatient. I think that's really the Colts' only shot here.
Thoughts?

I haven't watched the Colts this year until the Titans & Texans games. Can you explain how your team lost 6-0 against the Jags? How did they hold Luck to 0 points? You shut out the Cowboys a few weeks later..?
Chiefs have scored 26+ points in every game this year...which is an NFL record. They played the Rams, Seattle, Patriots, Chargers x2, Ravens, Steelers, all on the road except Baltimore...so not a cupcake situation. Two losses essentially came on the last play of the game.
I was looking at your scoreboards and, obviously, you played a 4th place schedule. It's hard for me to gauge your team based on who you've played..I know KC beat the snot out of the Bengals, Raiders and Jags...and put up 40 on NE in their stadium. Those are our common opponents this year...
If Watkins plays...this offense opens up. Teams started to cheat coverage to Hill when he went down. They were almost unstoppable before that...40+ points against your defense isn't unrealistic hyperbole.
It appears the Colts dont have a strong pass rush...which isn't a good thing against the way Mahomes plays. He scrambles around for 4-5 seconds then finds Hills or Kelce when the coverage breaks down. He has the strongest arm I've ever seen on a QB...
