How the Houston Texans can win the AFC South

HOUSTON -- The Houston Texans are inching closer and closer to their first playoff berth and division title since 2012.

The Texans are 7-7 right now and the Colts are 6-8. Indianapolis plays the Dolphins and Titans while the Texans play the Titans and Jaguars. If the Texans win both games or the Colts lose at least one of their games, the Texans will win the division outright without a need for tie breakers. If the Texans and Colts both win, it's possible for both teams to finish with an 8-8 record. If that happens, the Texans will be tied in overall record, division record, conference record and record against common opponents -- the first four tie breakers.
