Can the Jags keep rolling toward the playoffs? Here's what national NFL reporters are predicting.
Trevor Lawrence, the 2021 No. 1 overall pick, keeps rising as a young franchise QB as the Jaguars keep winning because of their offense. Zach Wilson, the 2021 No. 2 overall, keep struggling as a young non-franchise QB as the Jets try to go back to winning despite their offense. Doug Pederson's team can smell the AFC South title and their diversity of weapons all over the field will cause problems for Robert Saleh's zone-based defense.
I like New York's defense so much that I'm taking the Jets even though I have no idea who their starting QB is going to be on Thursday night. That is called blind faith and it's the same faith I've had in Santa since I was two and he's never let me down.The Jaguars haven’t won three in a row since December 2017. That season nearly ended with the team’s first ever Super Bowl berth. This year, they could end up back in the playoffs for the first time since then.
Quinnen Williams, a genuine game-time decision, would be a welcome boost for Gang Green's defense if he plays. Regardless, I'm leaning on the Jets to grind out this game on the ground in hopes of keeping Lawrence out of rhythm and oft-maligned Zach Wilson efficient. This is a risky wager, but I'm taking the side of streaks snapping in this topsy-turvy NFL season.Look out for the Jaguars, the league’s hottest and improbable upstart team along with the Detroit Lions.
