The Tennessee Titans notched a 25-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 3, which improved their record to 2-1 and puts them atop the AFC South.
Meanwhile, the Colts, the team that was supposed to be the biggest threat to Tennessee’s AFC South crown, sit in the cellar and are off to their first 0-3 start since the 2011 campaign.
Tennessee was the only AFC South squad to win, also, as the Jacksonville Jaguars lost to the Arizona Cardinals and the Houston Texans dropped their contest to the Carolina Panthers on Thursday night.
Here’s how the division standings look after three games:
1. Tennessee Titans (2-1)
2. Houston Texans (1-2)
3. Jacksonville Jaguars (0-3)
4. Indianapolis Colts (0-3)
If the playoffs started today, the Titans would own the No. 3 seed and take on the Los Angeles Chargers in the first round — but let’s not get too ahead of ourselves; there’s still a long way to go.
In Week 4, every team in the division will hit the road, but the Titans have by far the easiest matchup of the four teams, with a contest against the lowly New York Jets upcoming.
The Jaguars will take on the Cincinnati Bengals, the Texans will meet the Buffalo Bills, and the Colts will look to rebound versus the Miami Dolphins.
