the Jaguar He won the first head-to-head encounter with the Titans. The second head-to-head—in Jacksonville in Week 18—is set up to be a winner-takes-all matchup as long as the Jaguars post a record that matches or better than the Titans over the next two weeks.

If the Titans went into Week 18 in a game before the Jaguars, a win for Jacksonville at the end of the regular season would set both teams’ records and give the Jaguars a head-to-head tiebreaker.

If the Jaguars go into Week 18 a game before the Titans, a Tennessee win would give the Titans a division based on a superior divisional record, as both teams would enter the regular season final 3-2 against the AFC South in this scenario. Like the Titans, the Jaguars have another game against Texas on their schedule.

Our model gives Tennessee a 46.3 percent chance of winning the AFC South for the third year in a row.
