AFC South Franchise Grades

Just a quick summary of this recurring segment of the site for those who are visiting for the first time: these grades are a result of subjective scores in nine different categories (Uniforms, Geographic Area, Ownership, Current State of the Franchise, Prestige, Division, Franchise QB, General Management, and Bandwagon). If you have a GMail account, check out the GoogleDoc spreadsheet for many more comments about each team's score. The average score for all 32 franchises was a 64.6875.

Houston Texans: 68
Houston's lack of history and prestige handicapped their score somewhat, but acceptable grades in several areas (Ownership, Franchise QB, General Management) saved their score.

Indianapolis Colts: 84
The Colts' stellar showing in the Ownership, Franchise QB, and General Management categories contributed to their great score.

Jacksonville Jaguars: 66
The Jaguars scores were mediocre for almost every variable; their lowest score was a "2" (Geographic Area) and their highest was a "6" (General Management).

Tennessee Titans: 76
Tennessee had several solid scores across the board (Ownership, General Management) that lead to their score that's well above-average.
