There has been a lot of talk about the AFCS being between the Jags and Tacks. People keep bringing up the fact that we win one week and lose the next, so I decided to see if other teams are struggling to put two wins together and are legit playoff contenders. It turns out the Tinhorns are a mirror image of us in the win/loss column through 6 games.

1. Loss (Jaguars)
2. Win (at Bengals)
3. Loss (at Patriots)
4. Win (Titans)
5. Loss (Chiefs)
6. Win (Browns)

We won while the Tinhorns rested. When we are idle, they go to Seattle and probably will lose. That looks great if we beat the Bengals. Then we will be 1.5 games ahead of them if, as I predicted, we win our next game. However, crazy things happen every week in the NFL and we still need them to start a losing streak.

This leaves us with the original prediction that the AFCS is a two-team race to the top barring a couple major upsets. Unfortunately Tennessee is streaking. For them it went L, W, W, L, L, W, W before the bye and the Ratbirds are up next. Like us, they are 4-3 and idle in Week 8.

Here is Tennessee's remaining schedule:

9. Ravens
10. Bengals
11. Steelers
12. Colts
13. Texans
14. Cardinals
15. 49ers
16. Rams
17. Jaguars

What record do you see here? Does it still look like the division title goes down to Week 17?
