#2 - Week 2 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
The Colts just needed to defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars in the final week of the 2021 season to punch their ticket to the NFL Playoffs. The Colts failed to do so and will get their first shot at revenge in Week 2.
#1 - Week 8 vs. Washington Commanders
The Colts traded away quarterback Carson Wentz to the Washington Commanders just one season after acquiring him. Wentz will return to Indianapolis for a Week 8 showdown.
Tennessee Titans
#3 - Week 13 vs. Philadelphia Eagles
The Tennessee Titans shockingly traded young superstar wide receiver AJ Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles during the 2022 NFL Draft. They will now try to lock him down in a Week 13 matchup.
#2 - Week 9 vs. Kansas City Chiefs
The Titans have played well against the Kansas City Chiefs in the regular season recently, including a dominant victory over them last year. They will try to keep that momentum going in Sunday Night Football in Week 9 in what could be another postseason preview. They last faced off in the postseason in the 2019 AFC Championship Game, where the Chiefs were victorious.
#1 - Week 12 vs. Cincinnati Bengals
The Titans entered the 2021 NFL Playoffs as the top seed in the AFC bracket, but were eliminated in their first game against the Cincinnati Bengals. They will get their first chance at revenge in Week 12, when they host the Bengals again.
Jacksonville Jaguars
#3 - Week 8 vs. Denver Broncos
The Jacksonville Jaguars will be continuing their unofficial yearly tradition of playing a "home" game away from home in London. This year, they will face off against Russell Wilson and the new-look Denver Broncos.
#2 - Week 1 vs. Washington Commanders
Trevor Lawrence is one of the highest-rated quarterback prospects in NFL history. His rookie season didn't go quite as planned, but it's way too soon to give up on his potential. A strong start to the 2022 season in Week 1 against a solid Washington Commanders defense would be a crucial step in the right direction for his development.
#1 - Week 4 vs. Philadelphia Eagles
The Jaguars hired Doug Pederson to take over as their head coach ahead of the 2022 season. He is the former head coach for the Philadelphia Eagles, where he won a Super Bowl ring. He will return to Philadelphia for the first time in Week 4.
Houston Texans
#3 - Week 16 vs. Tennessee Titans
The Houston Texans are one of the teams that will get the opportunity to play Saturday football on Christmas Eve. They will face off against the Tennessee Titans in a divisional clash.
#2 - Week 3 vs. Chicago Bears
Lovie Smith is taking over as the head coach of the Texans for the 2022 NFL season. His last head coaching job was with the Chicago Bears, so he will get his first opportunity at Soldier Field as a road team.
#1 - Week 13 vs. Cleveland Browns
The Texans traded superstar quarterback Deshaun Watson to the Cleveland Browns after he sat out the entire 2021 NFL season and claimed he would refuse to ever play for the Texans again. Watson returns to Houston as an opponent for the first time in Week 13.
