But I think our division is more likely to have 4 teams clustered around .500 than to have the spread you're suggesting.  10-6, 9-7, 8-8, 6-10 (colts).  The other three of us is pic 'em.  Jacoby's a better qb than you're suggesting.  I expect Jags to finish 1st or 2nd.

As for the Cleveland game, I don't think Baker's a clearly better qb than Foles.  I do like their WRs better, but our secondary is better.  RBs are a wash, though I love me some Chubb (Go Dawgs!).  If healthy, I like our O-line better.  And though they have a good defense, it ain't the Jags defense!  No, we win that game in Jacksonville.

Not singling you out because I have been thinking of posting this in a separate thread, but since you brought it up, here goes:

How would you rank the QBs in the AFC South now that Luck has retired?

I would rank them:

1.  Foles-Won a Super Bowl MVP;  4-2 playoff record

2.  Watson-Capable of lighting up the scoreboard.  Needs better blocking and to get rid of the ball quicker

3.  Mariota-on the verge of being a bust, though I still don't think he's a bad QB

4.  Tannehill-could be above Mariota before the year is out

5.  Brissett

Watson and Foles are very close. I'd almost have them at a dead heat. Foles has better instincts and is more accurate, but Watson is way more athletic and can run around and buy time in the pocket and make plays with his legs. He also has the best receiver in the NFL to throw to. Neither QB is elite though, which pretty much shows the state of the division right now. After these two I would say....

3. Tannenhill
4. Mariota
5. Brissett
