The Jacksonville Jaguars have a less than appealing 2-5 overall record as we sit at the bye week, but they still far from being out of the playoff picture. While acquiring a wild card berth is farfetched at best given the current standings, the Jaguars have a non-trivial chance of making the playoffs thanks to the ineptitude of the AFC South.
According to Football Outsiders, the Jaguars still have a 20.9% chance of making the playoffs (2nd in the AFC South), with 20.4% of that probability coming from winning the division.
The Jaguars are fortunate to be in a position where they can still make the playoffs despite 3 absolutely crushing losses in a row in recent weeks… but is the AFC South really the worst division in football?
