NFL Midseason Report: AFC SOUTH

Indianapolis Colts 6-2   

The Colts came off a 19-9 loss to lowly San Diego with a 39-33 win over Denver. Trent Richardson, Coby Fleener, T.Y. Hilton, Andrew Luck, Donald Brown, and Darrius Heyward-Bey have all been inconsistent. If they can keep up some kind of consistency, they are real Super-Bowl contenders, with or without star receiver Reggie Wayne.

Fantasy:

Hilton is a WR2/3 with Wayne out. Fleener is a TE2, and Luck is a shaky QB1.

Houston Texans 2-6

The Texans are in all-out panic mode. On a 6 game losing-streak, star Running Back Arian Foster is also out indefinitely. Houston has much more talent than they are showing, however, it may already be too late for them.

Fantasy:

Foster is out, star Andre Johnson is a WR2, and Garrett Grahm is a weak TE2.

Tennessee Titans 4-4

The Titans have exceeded expectations this year, third-year Quarterback Jake Locker has been very promising and a much improved Defense has helped them win three of their first seven games. Although the playoffs are a long shot, Locker looks like a solid franchise Quarterback for years to come.

Fantasy:

Halfback Chris Johnson is a RB2, receiver Kendall Wright is a WR4, and Locker is a below-average QB2.

Jacksonville Jaguars 0-8

The Jags have been a disappointment this season, with starting Quarterback Blaine Gabbert and Halfback Maurice Jones-Drew injury-prone, the Jags have relied on NFL-fringe Quarterback Chad Henne to lead the offense this season. The defense has also been a disappointment.

Fantasy:

Henne is a desperate QB2, Jones-Drew is a RB2 and receivers Cecil Shorts and Justin Blackmon are WR2's.
