Jacksonville fell to 1-1 with a loss to Denver, yet remains the only AFC South club with a victory after every division rival also lost Sunday.
The Jacksonville Jaguars lost to the Denver Broncos in Week 2, leaving them at 1-1 for the year. Even so, the defeat did not cost them their position, as they continue to lead the AFC South outright.
Every other club in the division also came away from Sunday with a loss. The Tennessee Titans, Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts have all fallen to 0-2, which means Jacksonville is the lone AFC South team holding a win as Week 3 begins.
Next on the schedule for the Jaguars is a home game against the New England Patriots. The Titans head to Baltimore, while the Colts welcome the Texans in a matchup that guarantees at least one of the two will pick up its first win.
Elsewhere in the AFC, four teams enter the week unbeaten at 2-0: the Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders.
