MNF – Week 6, 2010: Tennessee Titans @ Jacksonville Jaguars
Oct 14th
We could all be in for a good, entertaining game this Monday night where AFC South rivals the Tennessee Titans and the Jacksonville Jaguars go head to head. Both teams are sitting at 3-2 and are having great seasons rushing (both offensively and defensively), and lacklustre seasons in passing (again, both offensively and defensively). It has the potential to be a great battle.

Tennesse @ Pittsburgh, 10-13
This was a tight, tight game and the Titans can walk out of Heinz Field with their heads held high. Well, maybe apart from Rob Bironas. Chris Johnson lit it up a couple of times, as did the Ben/Santonio connection. But the real stars were both defensive units, certainly against the run.
Anyway, we both called this one correctly.

Jacksonville @ Indiana, 12-14
Well, we thought that this would be a close game and so it proved! Jones-Drew looked good as the focal point of the Jags attack, and the Colts did enough but will need to show us more if we’re going to believe in them this year.
Detroit @ New Orleans, 27-45
Drew Brees put on another passing clinic, completing 6 TD passes to 5 receivers. Matt Stafford wasn’t quite as impressive, but did get the Lions moving when the running game was shut down. On the plus side, the Lions did put up 27 points which is more than in any game last year. There were signs, but there’s still work to do.
Second Look… AFC South
Aug 3rd
In my First Look at the AFC South I called it one of the toughest to call. And it still looks like that today.
I’ve not made many adjustments to my predictions elsewhere so far. Let’s see if there’s any changes here.

First Look… AFC South
Jun 3rd
So many of the divisions seem to have me saying “this is a tough one to call”… and the AFC South is the same again. The Colts took five successfive titles until last year’s impressive Titans‘ run but the Jaguars have made their mark in recent years too.
