On Sunday the Colts were able to put their feet up and let the AFC tear itself apart in Week 14. The chaos that ensued not only made the AFC even more wide open, it put the Colts into the playoffs if the season ended today.

There’s still 4 games left for the blue and white to get through, but Indy now finds itself in control of their own playoff destiny more so than they have all year.
Monday on The Dan Dakich Show the talented Joe Reitz of The Colts Radio Network stopped by to share his thoughts on the havoc and chaos that made up Week 14 in the NFL and the way the Colts benefit from it all.

Joe also took some time to evaluate the Colts upcoming opponent, the New England Patriots, and go over what needs to occur for Indianapolis to get the W and move one step closer to the playoffs.

In addition to that, Joe also reviewed the impact that the return of Colts Center Ryan Kelly has on Saturday’s matchup against the Patriots.
Frank Reich says the @Colts expect center Ryan Kelly to be back off the COVID-19 list tomorrow.
