The AFC South could be one of the closest and most interesting division races in the NFL this season. The Houston Texans sneaked past Indianapolis last season with Colts' quarterback Andrew Luck missing quite a bit of playing time due to injuries. Luck is back and healthy for the 2016, but there are still some major holes to fill on the defensive side of the ball in Indianapolis. The Texans have a formidable defense led by JJ Watt, but with Brock Osweiler penciled-in as the starting quarterback after signing as a free agent out of Denver, there may be more questions than answers with that move.
That leaves the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Tennessee Titans as the second tier of contenders in this division. The Jaguars are poised for an explosive year on offense with some young studs at the skill positions and head coach Jack Del Rio could be on the verge of turning things around on defense with some positive offseason moves. This will be Tennessee's second season with Marcus Mariota as its starting quarterback and new head coach Mike Mularkey used the majority of his draft picks to address some major concerns on his defensive unit.
All-in-all, it should be a battle to the bitter end in the AFC South this season so please check out the link below at SportsBettingStats.com for my complete preview of this division as well as my "best bet" pick as to which team offers the best value to win based on BetAnySports' updated futures odds.
