After Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals, the Jacksonville Jaguars improved to 7-4 on the season.
So, now where does this team sit in the AFC playoff race heading into Week 13?
Along with the Jaguars winning, the LA Chargers, who are 7-4, were on a bye, while the Buffalo Bills dropped to 7-4 after losing to Houston.

Although the Jaguars do hold the head-to-head tie-breaker over the Chargers, because it is a three-way tie, that tie-breaker takes a back seat at this time. Instead, conference record determines the seeding.
LA is 6-2 in the AFC, Jacksonville is 4-2, and Buffalo is 4-3.
Just on the outside looking in of the AFC playoff picture are Houston, Pittsburgh, and Kansas City, all of whom are 6-5.
The Jaguars win on Sunday coupled with a loss by the Indianapolis Colts, the AFC South divisional race has tightened up quite a bit in recent weeks.
