After 2 weeks, the AFC South has combined for 1 win

The NFC East has been displaced as the worst division in the NFL.

The AFC South has cemented its position as the foundation at the bottom of league standings.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are in first place. That is because they have the only win the division has.

And, does that won actually count? Because it came against a division foe, the Indianapolis Colts.

The Colts are 0-1-1. They have managed to fall behind the Houston Texans and Jaguars at different points over their first two games by a combined 44-3.

For perspective, the Jags and Texans were a combined 7-27 in 2021.

The Tennessee Titans were the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs last season.

They have opened the 2022 season by blowing a double-digit lead against the New York Giants and getting blown out by the Buffalo Bills on “Monday Night Football.”

Do the math and after 2 weeks and 8 collective games, the AFC South is 1-5-2 and can’t go much further south if it tried.
