A lot can and likely will change over the course of the next few months, but the Indianapolis Colts are viewed as the early favorites to win the AFC South during the 2022 season.
After failing to do so for the last seven seasons, the Colts seem primed to make a run at the divisional throne. They haven’t sat in that chair since 2014 but after making some big additions to the roster this offseason, there is plenty of optimism.
According to Tipico Sportsbook, the Colts are viewed as the favorites to win the division (-105) in 2022, slightly over the Tennessee Titans.
Team | Odds |
Indianapolis Colts | -105 |
Tennessee Titans | +140 |
Jacksonville Jaguars | +600 |
Houston Texans | +2000 |
Again, the division is primarily viewed as a two-team race between the Colts and Titans. The Jaguars spent a lot of money to better their roster this offseason and used the No. 1 overall pick on edge rusher Travon Walker.
Meanwhile, the Texans still have several holes on their roster and will be experimenting with Davis Mills as the starting quarterback.
Much of the Colts’ success will come down to how quickly the new pieces assimilate into the schemes on both sides of the ball. With veteran Matt Ryan leading the offense, the Colts should have a more consistent unit working on Sundays.
It’s still very early, and the Colts have a lot to prove in 2022. But for now, it appears they are the early favorites to win the division.
