Re: Around the NFL: AFC South

Colts 13-3: My Super Bowl pick from the AFC. Manning finally gets the New England monkey off his back. Some young defenders, especially in the secondary, start to pitch in and do their part for the Colts. I expect them to secure home field advantage through the playoffs, since New England has lost some key parts. If the Colts don't get homefield advantage, I don't think there's any way they can beat the Patriots in Foxboro in January or the Steelers in Pitt. They're an indoor team, but this year I think they'll be in their dome come playoffs.

Jaguars 8-8: Running game is really iffy. Fred Taylor is coming of MAJOR knee surgery, and I don't like Fragile Freddy's chances of going the whole year. LaBrandon Toefield, his backup, does not impress me. I like Leftwich, but I don't think there will be support from the running game all year. Great DTs in Stroud and Henderson.

Texans 7-9: I'm not buying David Carr. And the defense is nothing to write home about.

Titans 7-9: Like Matty I see improvement. And I'm never going to crap on a team with a healthy Steve McNair. The guy is all guts. They've got two quality running backs now in Henry and Chris Brown. Lost a lot in the offseason, like Samari Rolle and Derrick Mason. The drafting of Pac Man might work out in the long haul, but right now he has an uphill battle with his legal troubles. They have lots of holes, but a great coach and a great QB.
