Colts AFC South lead now gone following latest loss to Texans

The Indianapolis Colts no longer lead the AFC South division race.

After Sunday’s Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans, the Colts are now 8-4 on the season. This is the Colts’ third loss in their last four games.

In the wins and losses column, the Colts are tied with the Jaguars, who are now 8-4 as well after a win over the Tennessee Titans. Both teams are 2-1 in the AFC South as well.

However, the Jaguars hold the current tie-breaker with a better win percentage in common games compared to the Colts.

Right behind Indianapolis and Jacksonville are the Houston Texans at 7-5. Houston has now won four straight games.

The good news for the Colts is that they still control their own destiny when it comes to the division.

Indianapolis still plays Jacksonville twice and Houston once more this season.

But for the time being, the Colts are now technically a wildcard team and have to get their issues fixed quickly.

The Colts have one of the toughest remaining schedules in the NFL.
