All of a sudden, the Jacksonville Jaguars are now at the top of the AFC South standings.
Following Sunday's Week 13 win over the Tennessee Titans, the Jaguars are now 8-4 on the season. This is the Jaguars' third consecutive win.

The Colts are now 8-4 on the season, just like the Jaguars. However, with both teams having the same overall record and the same division record at 2-1, the Jaguars hold the current tie-breaker with the better win percentage in common games.
If the season were to end today, Jacksonville would be the three seed in the AFC playoff picture.
Right behind both the Colts and Jaguars are the Texans, who are 7-5 and have won four straight games.
The Jaguars do not play the Texans anymore this season, but they do face the Cols twice, with the first matchup coming next week in Jacksonville.
