Welcome to the Week 14 grades!

When the Colts and Jaguars play, it’s not usually a game that you circle on your calendar, but it was this week, because first place in the AFC South was on the line. The game in Jacksonville was one of three on the day that saw the first-place and second-place teams in a division facing off. 

Here’s a quick look at those three games: 

AFC South: The Jaguars made a statement with their 36-19 win over a Colts team that’s suddenly reeling. At 9-4, it feels like the Jags are now in total control of the division, especially since the Colts just lost Daniel Jones to a season-ending Achilles injury. AFC North: Just when you thought Mike Tomlin might be on the hot seat, he goes out and leads his team to its biggest win of the season. Tomlin’s Steelers took control of the division by taking out the Baltimore Ravens in a 27-22 win. NFC North: The Packers and Bears are currently facing off in a divisional showdown in Green Bay. If the Bears win, they’ll be the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC heading into Week 15, but if they lose to the Packers, they’ll likely drop down to the seventh spot, so it’s not just a big game in the NFC North, it’s also a big game in the NFC playoff picture. 

There’s also a big game on Sunday night in Kansas City with the Chiefs hosting the Texans. If the Chiefs lose, it will be almost impossible for them to get to the playoffs. 

We’re not here to talk about the playoffs though, we’re here to talk about grades, so let’s get to them, starting with the Jags’ win over the Colts.
