AFC South. 6-8. Indianapolis Colts. 11. player. 46. <p>The Colts let their 10-point second quarter lead slip by allowing 16 unanswered points to the Texans on Sunday, giving them a 6-8 record on the year and reason enough for this writer to demote them to their lowest ranking of the season.</p> <p>Only 49 rushing yards from running backs and 147 passing yards doomed the Colts in Week 15. With a 40-year-old under center, Indy continues to look a bit aged in comparison to the younger, fresher AFC South teams that have been beating them as of late—Jacksonville last week, Houston this time around.</p> <p>To salvage their dwindling playoff hopes, the Colts must prevail in South Florida next week and cruise past the Titans in Week 17.</p>
