NFL Betting Picks for AFC South Division 2023

Looking ahead to the new NFL season, there are a couple of divisions that look a little more difficult to predict than the rest. One of those divisions is the AFC South, and while the bookies have a definite favorite here, I’m not so sure it will be that straightforward. The Jaguars showed some signs of promise in 2022, but the other 4 teams are pretty much in rebuilding mode, so it’s tough to really know what to expect. With all of that in mind, we are going to predict how we think the AFC South might play out to consider in your NFL betting odds. Let’s go to it by listing the teams in the order we think they will finish.

NFL 2023 Season Picks for the AFC South Division

2023 NFL season | 104th season of National Football League in the United States
September 7, 2023–February 11, 2024

Jacksonville Jaguars

Jacksonville Jaguars Odds to Win AFC South Division: -152

Heading into the bye week in 2022, the Jaguars found themselves sitting at 3-7 and looking like the playoffs were little more than a pipe dream. They came to life after the bye and went on a tear, winning 6 of their last 7 games to win the division and make it into the playoffs. The Jaguars then delivered an astonishing comeback against the Chargers in the Wild Card Game before finally losing and seeing their season come to an end. If they can recapture that magic from the second half of last season, they look like a good bet to win the South again.

Tennessee Titans

Tennessee Titans Odds to Win AFC South Division: +350

As good as the Jaguars were in the second half last season, their move to the top would not have happened without something of a collapse by the Titans. After going 7-3 to start the season and take control of the division, the wheels came off and they closed things out by losing 7 in a row. Sure, Ryan Tannehill missed some time due to an injury, but even when he was on the field, he did not look at all sharp. The Titans drafted Will Levis in the draft, making everyone believe that the QB spot is up for grabs. I don’t really trust this team, but they should be good enough for 2nd.

Houston Texans

Houston Texans Odds to Win AFC South Division: +800

The Texans finished last season with just 3 wins, but I think they drafted well and look to be a team set to improve this season. That said, it would have to be some kind of dramatic improvement for them to be in contention for this division. CJ Stroud is probably going to get the start in his rookie season, and while he looked a little lost in his limited time on the field in the Texans first preseason game, he does need to be given time. I think he and the Texans might do just enough to land in 3rd.

Indianapolis Colts

Indianapolis Colts Odds to Win AFC South Division: +600

After several years of trying their luck with veteran QBs under center, the Colts finally drafted a young man to be their starter. Anthony Richardson has some definite upside, but there are more than a few people who believe that the Colts took a massive risk in drafting this kid so high. Like Strouf with the Texans, Richardson is going to have come rough moments in what could be a very long season in Indianapolis. They had 4 wins last year and I believe they might be looking at more of the same, or worse, in 2023.
