This was a topic that came up on the Colts forum, and while I personally don't think we would, I thought it was interesting enough to post over here.
So, we play the Steelers week 14 (which will be our 13th game). Both the Steelers and the Colts are 7-2 at the moment, and are now competing against each other for the bye in the playoffs.
Assuming we are still undefeated at the time we play the Steelers, and neither Indy or the Steelers have lost again, or only Indy has lost another game, do you think we'd ever throw the Steelers game in an attempt to take away Indy's bye week? I don't see BB doing it, because I think he and the whole team really do want to go 19-0, but if he really only cared about Superbowls and really doesn't care about other records, I could see someone buying into this.
Thoughts?
