The Tennessee Titans remain in the basement of the AFC South power rankings after their Week 5 loss to the Buffalo Bills.

There is no question that the Tennessee Titans had the worst week of any of the other AFC South teams, even though they weren’t the only one to lose.

A defensive battle with the Buffalo Bills was lost, and Tennessee saw its offensive line play absolutely putrid despite the return of left tackle Taylor Lewan. There is a major issue in Tennessee, and for once it doesn’t have to do with quarterback Marcus Mariota.

The Jacksonville Jaguars might have lost their third game of the season, but at least the team showed some fight after falling behind to the Carolina Panthers, and their young quarterback continues to show he might be the real deal.

On the flip side of those two teams, the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts both had impressive wins, with the Colts in particular taking down one of the best teams in the NFL.

After five weeks, it’s clear that the Texans and Colts are the two best teams in this division, however which one reigns supreme? As far as the standings go, the Texans are in first place by tie-breakers, but it’s still too early to determine things based on that.

So, where do each of these teams stand in the power rankings for the AFC South after Week 5?
