Texans can clinch AFC South if...

But they'll need a little help.

If the Jaguars beat the Titans next Saturday afternoon, and Houston takes care of the Bengals later that evening, the Texans will be the division champs. The Texans and Titans currently have identical 8-6 records. Houston won the first encounter with Tennessee in Week 4 at NRG Stadium, and has a spotless 5-0 record within the division.

Tennessee, meanwhile, has a 1-3 record against the AFC South.

If both teams win next Saturday, then the winner of their season finale in Nashville will take home the AFC South.

If Tennessee wins next Saturday, and the Texans fall to the Bengals, Houston can still win the AFC South if they beat the Titans in Week 17.
