Week 14 of the NFL featured one of the most attractive matchups of the week at EverBank Stadium, where the Jacksonville Jaguars hosted the Indianapolis Colts in a game of great significance for the AFC South race.
After the decisive 36-19 victory by the Jaguars over the Colts, who were hit by Daniel Jones’ severe injury, the division is heating up, still awaiting the outcome of the Houston Texans’ visit to the Chiefs on SNF.
With this result, Trevor Lawrence’s team now has, according to the official NFL site, a 96% chance of securing a postseason spot. Undoubtedly, it turned out to be a pivotal game for Jacksonville, just a few weeks away from the end of the regular season.
For its part, the outlook is different for Shane Steichen’s team. The Colts had started the season surprising both fans and critics, but after the loss, their chances of securing a wild card spot dropped sharply to 56%.

AFC South: Week 15 showdowns
Week 15 presents a defining slate of games for the competitive AFC South, with multiple teams facing challenging matchups. The Jacksonville Jaguars remain at home, hosting the New York Jets on Sunday in a key inter-conference clash.
