What else happened in the AFC South in Week 10

Overall, Week 10 wasn't very kind for the AFC South. We know what happened in the Indianapolis Colts' game against Buffalo, but what about the rest of the division?

The Tennessee Titans lost on the road to the Los Angeles Chargers. In short, the combination of Justin Herbert and a seven-sack performance from the Chargers' defense was too much for the Titans.

With Will Levis at quarterback for Tennessee, the Titans stayed tight in the first half and trailed 13-7 at halftime, but the Chargers provided additional separation in the final quarters.

Levis was efficient, completing 18 of 23 passes for 175 yards with two touchdowns. Calvin Ridley caught both touchdown passes and gained 84 yards through the air. Tennessee also had some success on the ground but struggled in the red zone.

The Jacksonville Jaguars were at home against Minnesota and were without Trevor Lawrence. The Jaguars' defense did a good job of stifling the Vikings' offense, holding them to 12 points and 4.9 yards per play while forcing three turnovers.

However, the offense led by Mac Jones couldn't get anything going. Jacksonville's offense put up just seven points and averaged less than 4.0 yards per play for just 143 total yards.

Finally, the Detroit Lions met the Houston Texans on Sunday evening. Since Jared Goff threw five interceptions in this game alone, the result was on a silver platter for the Texans, who at one point had a 16-point lead.

But Detroit was unable to take full advantage of the Lions' mistakes, erasing a 16-point deficit in the second half and kicking a game-winning 52-yard field goal as time expired.

CJ Stroud was 19 of 32 passing for 232 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. Joe Mixon managed just 1.8 yards per rush on 25 attempts, while John Metchie led the team with 74 yards.

The Texans still have a clear lead in the division at 6:4. Indianapolis is in second place at 4-6, followed by the Titans at 2-7 and the Jaguars at 2-8.

Next up for the Texans is an away game in Dallas on Monday night. The Colts travel to New York to face the Jets, Tennessee is home to face the Vikings and Jacksonville plays in Detroit.
