Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season is upon us. Each week, I’ll look at the AFC South matchups and give you a couple of bold predictions for those games. Houston travels to Tennessee to take on the Titans, with the Jaguars hosting the Los Angeles Chargers in Jacksonville. Indy has reached their bye week for extra rest and recovery before their last seven games.
Houston Texans:

Marks has one game this season with multiple touchdowns. His total yards in a game have been 111 and 119. This week, he’ll set a new high in total yards, going over 120, and have his second multiple-touchdown game. The Titans give up the third-most points per game (28.6). Their defense ranks 25th in rush yards per play and 28th in pass yards per play.
Will Anderson Jr. has his first multi-sack game of 2025
Will Anderson Jr. has had a TFL in every game but one and a sack in every game except two. Cam Ward is the most sacked QB in the NFL. He’s been sacked 38 times in nine games. The next closest, Drake Maye (35) and Justin Herbert (33), have each played 10 games. The closest QB to Ward in sacks that’s also only played nine games is Geno Smith (27). The Texans should be up big in this game, forcing the Titans to have to throw for most of the game. Anderson Jr. will have ample opportunity to get home multiple times.

Parker Washington returns a punt for a TD in back-to-back weeks
Parker Washington returned his second punt for a touchdown this season, last week. He’ll do it for the third time this season and in back-to-back games as he takes one to the house against the Chargers. Los Angeles ranks dead last in punt return average, defensively, as they’re giving up 16.1 yards per return.

Josh Hines-Allen doubles his season total of sacks with two this week
Hines-Allen only has two sacks in nine games this year, but he has twice as many QB hits as anyone else on his team, with 14. There are only 10 players in the NFL with more QB hits. This week, Hines-Allen will go against an offensive line that’s been ravaged by injuries. He’ll be able to at least match his season total in sacks in this game alone.
Tennessee Titans:

Cedric Gray will have 15+ tackles
Gray has put up double-digit tackles in five of his last six games. In Week 4, he had 17 tackles, and 16 tackles in Week 9. This week against the Texans, with all of the injuries and trades that Tennessee has had on the defensive side of the ball, Gray will hear his name called all day as he’s the first arriving at the ball. It’ll be back-to-back weeks with games of 15+ tackles as he propels himself into the conversation of players that could lead the league in tackles for 2025.
Tyjae Spears leads the Titans in receiving yards
Spears has caught 3+ passes in four straight games. In Cam Ward’s first matchup this year against the Texans, he only completed 10 passes for 108 yards. Despite sharing the backfield with Tony Pollard, Spears will once again have 3+ receptions, but in this game, he’ll end up having more receiving yards than his fellow running backs, as well as the Titans receivers and tight ends.
Indianapolis Colts:

Colts lose more of their last seven games than they win
The Colts are on a bye this week, so I’ll look at some bold predictions for the rest of the season. When Indy returns from their bye, they’ll have seven games remaining, with four of those being on the road. In their first 10 games this year, they only played four away, going 2-2 in those. They also had an easier schedule than what they’ll face to end the year. Despite being tied for the best record in the NFL at 8-2, they’ll go 3-4 to end the year.
Jonathan Taylor rushes for over 2,000 yards and totals 24+ touchdowns
There are nine players who have rushed for over 2,000 yards in a season. Of them, Terrell Davis by far has the most rushing TDs (21) and total TDs (23). As Taylor heads into the bye, he’s currently on pace for 1,936 rushing yards this year. He’s already run for 15 touchdowns and has two additional touchdowns through the air, putting him on pace for 26 rushing and three receiving for a total of 29 TDs.. When the season is finished, Taylor will find himself over the 2,000-yard mark and surpassing Davis’ 21 rushing TDs and 23 total TDs.
