INDIANAPOLIS – The Indianapolis Colts don't want to let another chance to wrap up a playoff spot slip away.

Indy (9-5) can earn its first playoff berth of the post-Peyton Manning era with a win Sunday at Kansas City or a Steelers loss to Cincinnati. The Colts want to take care of business themselves after a sub-par performance at Houston.

The Colts are 8-3 since Bruce Arians took over as interim coach, including a 3-3 mark on the road — with the three wins coming over teams that have a combined total of 11 wins. Kansas City is just 2-12 this season.
