How do the indianapolis colts get into the playoffs?

If the Colts beat the Jaguars on Sunday, they will officially earn a spot in the playoffs. The Colts can reach the playoffs in three ways, the first being the most favorable. In a nutshell, the Colts reach the playoffs with a win over the Jaguars. They also come in if they tie with Jacksonville on Sunday.

If Indianapolis loses as a big favorite, there are two other scenarios where they could have played and still managed to enter. The Colts would need the Los Angeles Chargers to lose to the Los Vegas Raiders and the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers to tie. The other scenario would require the Chargers to lose, in addition to a loss for the Steelers and a win for the Miami Dolphins over the New England Patriots.
