The Indianapolis Colts still have a chance at making the playoffs, but need to defeat the New York Giants in Week 17. The Colts have a strong running game, led by Jonathan Taylor, who could exploit the Giants' weak run defense.
Critical playoff chances hang in the AFC especially for the Indianapolis Colts as they look for help from others in Week 17, but will need to take care of business against the New York Giants .The 7-8 Indianapolis Colts still have an outside shot at the playoffs depending on Saturday’s results, but first they must defeat the 2-13 New York Giants at the Meadowlands.
