Matt Ryan calls dibs on South

Matt Ryan’s arrival in the AFC South has shifted the focus of the upcoming season.

Instead of looking to find a replacement quarterback, the Colts can fall back on the talents of one of the gridiron’s best.

Searching for a new quarterback would have set Indianapolis back a couple of seasons.

Returning playmakers like Jonathan Taylor, Nyheim Hines, and Darius Leonard make Indianapolis the favorite to win the AFC South.

While teams like the Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars rebuild, the Colts are in a position to strike.

Competition in the AFC will be at an all-time high in 2022. As the level of talent increases within the conference, the chances of seeing great matchups will rise.

The race to a divisional championship is on but which team will be triumphant?
