The Houston Texans and the Indianapolis Colts will play on Sunday in a game packed with Playoff implications. The Colts are still chasing one of the top two seed placings in the AFC in an attempt to get a first round bye in the Playoffs, but they will not be able to afford any slip ups today if they are to do that.

The game will start at 1 p.m. EDT and will be broadcast on CBS, but can also be watched online through live stream - free for subscribers - via the link provided below.

The Colts are currently 9-4 which is good enough for the 3rd seed spot in the AFC. They are hoping to chase down at least one of the New England Patriots, who are 1st seeds in the AFC, or the Denver Broncos in 2nd - both of those teams are on 10-3.

However, they face a slightly revived Houston Texans team who come into today's game on the back of two straight wins - although a closer look reveals that they haven't really defeated teams of the highest caliber. Last week they gained a 27-13 road win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, and the week prior they defeated the Tennessee Titans 45-21.

Those wins have put the Texans back in the Playoff hunt, although they will need to likely win out the season. They are 7-6 and currently occupy the 8th seed position. To make a Wild Card spot they will have to chase down the San Diego Chargers or Pittsburgh Steelers, who are both on 8-5 coming into this week's games.
