Two teams vying for the AFC South title meet head-to-head in the Week 6 as the Indianapolis Colts host the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars struggled to finish off a number of promising drives in Week 5 and it led to just a pair of field goals. The Houston Texans were able to come out on top, 13-6.

Meanwhile, the Colts got back to the .500 mark with an overtime win against the Denver Broncos in Week 5. Cornerback Stephon Gilmore's pass breakup in the end zone on a fourth down try sealed the win for Indianapolis. Four field goals by kicker Chase McLaughlin led the way in a 12-9 final score.

Jaguars vs Colts Prediction & Pick

There's a good chance this game has a major impact on the final AFC South standings for the 2022 NFL season. Divisional matchups are crucial to win for tiebreaker scenarios. This one is a toss-up, so I'll roll with the better starting quarterback here. That is certainly not the struggling Matt Ryan.

Ryan leads the league in interceptions (7) as well as fumbles (11) and has been sacked an NFL-high 21 times already. Turnovers are going to be they key to this game and the Jaguars are tied for fifth in the NFL with 9 takeaways on the year. That gives them a major edge in what should be a close one.

Final Score Prediction: Jaguars: 20 | Colts: 17

Jacksonville is 4-2 straight up in its last six games against Indianapolis and has covered the spread in every single one of those six contests. Not only that, but the Colts are also 1-6 against the spread (ATS) in their last seven games against an AFC South opponent. The Jaguars should be favored here.

The health of starting running back Jonathan Taylor is another part of this matchup to keep an eye on. He was sidelined in Week 5 with an ankle issue and may not be 100% healthy heading into Sunday. If he is limited in any way, the Jaguars have a much better chance of balling out on defense.

Bet: Jacksonville Jaguars ML (+110)
