INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indianapolis Colts aren't even thinking playoffs even though they can wrap up the division title this weekend.

The scenario is simple enough: Win the early game Sunday at Houston, see Jacksonville lose the late game at San Francisco, and the Colts are AFC South champs for the sixth time in seven years.

No, the Colts aren't the only team that can clinch its division this weekend. Unbeaten New Orleans can win the NFC South, too, if Atlanta does not beat Tampa Bay at home and the Saints win Monday night against New England.

But for the Colts (10-0), a division title has always been the No. 1 goal, and to wrap it up this early would be a major achievement as they try to challenge New England's NFL record 21-game regular-season winning streak.
