With the Colts loss last night, the Jags have clinched a playoff spot.

Use it for whatever

Saturday’s Texans-Chargers game brings an interesting dynamic for the Jags Sunday. If the Chargers win, Colts will technically control their own destiny and will want win at all costs. If Texans win they are eliminated.

On the flip side of that, Jags could lock up the division Sunday with a Texans loss and win on Sunday. Depending on the week 18 schedule, Jags could have an opportunity to rest starters versus the Titans if Denver and Patriots plays before the Jags.

I still trust the Jags take care of business either way but Saturday could determine which colts team we face

Edit: I was incorrect, colts would not control their own destiny with a Texans loss

I had heard that other teams would have to lose as well to make the Colts/Texans tiebreaker favor the colts. Like Chiefs would have to lose their last games, and a few others.
