3. Race for the 2025 AFC South Crown

-In your view, what level is the Panic Meter at (on a scale of 1-10) in terms of the play of Daniel Jones costing the Colts the 2025 AFC South title, if not a playoff berth altogether?

-If the Jaguars snatch just 1 win in those latter three games (vs. Colts 2x, at Broncos) and win the former three that they're expected to (vs. Titans 2x, vs. Jets), would you say they win the AFC South?

-Whether the Texans win the AFC South for a third straight year or get into the playoffs as a Wild Card seed, are they a team absolutely nobody will want to play in January?
