Often one of the most overlooked divisions that always has the potential to play spoiler when it comes to the big games late in the season. The guys took a deep dive into their "way too early" record predictions for the AFC South. Check out what the guys had to say down below!

Sottnick:
Houston Texans: 11 - 5
- The explosiveness at the WR position, and the addition of an overlooked and forgotten about David Johnson can do huge things for this offense, even in wake of one of the worst trades in NFL history.
Indianapolis Colts: 10 - 6
- Phil Rivers is a gosh-darn-flippin great quarterback and is going to come in and provide a major spark and missing leadership in a very young and talented Colts locker room. How much does he have left?
Tennessee Titans: 8 - 8
- Teams around the league have a full year to plan for a one-dimensional guy like Tannehill at QB, but it's going to come down to if teams can get big, and chop down the tree that is Derrick Henry in the backfield.
Jacksonville Jaguars: 5 - 11
- Added some very nice talent through the draft, but Jax has become a place for young stars to fizzle out before they even get going and with the backfield looking bleak, the Jags are in for a very rough season.
Boz:
Tennessee Titans: 9 - 7
- Tennessee took a major step last season showing the world that they are a force in the NFL and are capable of taking down any of the top teams in the NFL even if their record may not show for it. This year, AJ Brown etches his name into the WR1 conversation and plays a pivotal part in a typically run-heavy offense.
Houston Texans: 9 - 7
- Even with the loss of Hopkins, Watson puts this team on his back game after game after game and continues to excel at throwing the deep ball to his plethora of burners at the WR position.
Indianapolis Colts: 8 - 8
- The additions on offense in the offseason are going to prove to be essential to the success of the Colts this season, but with the loss of Malik Hooker on defense, and the unfortunateness of T.Y. Hilton injuries, this team is going to take its' lumps and stay in the middle of the pack on the NFL this season.
Jacksonville Jaguars: 7 - 9
- Rounding out what Boz is predicting to be the tightest division in football, Minshew Mania takes a fu-man-HUGE step forward this season as a leader in the Jags locker room, and the additions of CJ Henderson, K'lovon Chassion, and Laviska Shenault give a glimmer of hope for the future along route 4.
Sam:
Tennessee Titans: 11 - 5
- While it's believed that Henry will not repeat as rushing champ (that's going to Nick Chubb this year) Tannehill has had the better part of the offseason to learn every way imaginable to hand the ball of to the tank of Tennessee, and it is going to lead to big things for the Titans this season.
Indianapolis Colts: 8 - 8
- The prospect of a two-back system between Marlon Mack and Jonathan Taylor is going to be an incredible sight to see in Indy, however agreeing with Boz, Hilton's injuries have left a few question marks on offense, and have put a very big test on the desk of the Colts defense.
Houston Texans: 6 - 10
- Pessimistic about the loss of Hopkins, Sam sees Watson (his fantasy quarterback) struggling heavy this season and feels that the receiving core has become one-dimensional and will lead to teams taking advantage of the Texans all season long.
Jacksonville Jaguars: 3 - 13
- Might be in the running for the worst team in football this season. Minshew Mania will come to a screeching halt, but does that mean the Tank for Trevor or the Failure for Fields is on? "The best thing the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars is doing right now is All Elite Wrestling."
Joe:
Indianapolis Colts: 10 - 6
- Colts have the talent to be division winners this season, especially if Parris Campbell and T.Y. HIlton can be the duo that Phillip Rivers has been longing for, but time, and injuries will tell.
Tennessee Titans: 9 - 7
- Joe's big keeper Derrick Henry is poised to have another year for the books, but Joe hit the nail on the head when he declared that the organization has to "PAY THAT MAN!"
Houston Texans: 7 - 9
- The promise of the teams natural athletic ability is what is going to keep this team afloat in a down year, but Joe has his hopes for Watson and his doubts about the impact and hype surrounding Darren Fells impact on the offense.
Jacksonville Jaguars: 5 - 11
- The Jags got arguable the steal of the draft in CJ Henderson, who was noted as being potentially the best Man-to-Man cornerback in the 2020 draft class, but the youth of this team is still keeping them years away from becoming a contender in the division.
