In the last 20 years, how many win playoff games with 7 at garbage time? 0. Lots of playoff games where the loser scored 21 which was what the Colts scored, not 25. How or when you get those points has little to do with it. Leads like that occur when you happen to suck on a given day. When you're sucking, you don't come back either and lose. Amazing revelation!
No other team averaged less than 15 points in this years playoffs. 21 was right at the average points scored so the Colts were no scoring juggernaut. Houston was lucky to get 7 that game. Colts also allowed 31 points the following week so...
Houston O was simply poor and that poor play was led by Watson in that particular game. He actually played worse than his 69 rating. It was easily the worst performance by a QB in this years playoffs other than Goff in the SB which was close both by stats and a simple eye test. Houston D had an average day judging by average points scored this postseason but had no help from the O which makes it rough on them as well. Goff's performance gets a thread started about 'what are the Rams going to do with him?' A similar performance from Watson has you projecting him to win this year's championship. I wouldn't be dwelling on this because Watson is usually a better player than that day (so is Goff) but your nonsensical posting is forcing it.

....and this has what to do with what do with me and what the OP were discussing? The point was as it relates to this years playoffs is that when ya' fall behind, ya' typically don't come back to win.
My point with the article was that I was trying to come up with something that related to what were the %'s of teams that came back from playoff deficits to win. So far that article was
the best I could do for now.
Unfortunately...the article was was about SB's.....not playoff history. I admit it.

And the Houston "D" let Colts score 21pts. thus putting the Houston "O" in a "catch-up" passing mode for the rest of the game.

Watson was playing from a Houston "D" induced 21pt deficit.
He did well not to fling 3-4 INTS. trying to come back in the face of blitzes and
7-9 man coverage schemes to prevent him from passing (
when they KNEW he had to pass). Goff in the SB was different scenario
( bad "O" play-calling hurt the Rams near the end.....thus costing them game).

LOL.....again the Houston's "D" put the "O" at a 21pt deficit, hence allowing the Colts to control time of possession( Mack had 148 yrs. rushing).
how many teams had to rebound from a 21pt to zero deficit by the first half in this yrs. playoffs???

The Goff thing is something for another thread...it's outta place here. I'd be happy to discuss him somewhere else.

NO NO NO....lol. Your doing it again. You are projecting yet another lie. I never said I
"projected" Watson
"to win this year's championship" What's
"nonsensical" is for you to continue
"forcing" and trying to slip this lie in about Watson.
NOW.......
What I said was
IF Houston had our Bears "D" (meaning ALL OUR BEAR "D" players, playing for Houston)....THEN the Texans (with Watson) would have a better shot
at making it to the SB. IMO I posted this several times in this thread.
Earlier I said Mahomes & the Chiefs would've had a better chance of
getting to the SB, if they had our Bears "D"
(meaning ALL OUR BEAR "D" players, playing for the Chiefs ).
Stop
"giggling" and start reading the posted evidence b4 u post. It'll help ur
credibility.
