Jags = 8.5 as in 85% - nothing is a guarantee but we should win this one.

 

Bills = 4 as in 40% - tough place to play, that is the best team in the AFC IMO.

 

Bucs = 5 as in 50% - we play them at home and their D has been struggling. I see a shoot out in this game. Brady will have a big day but so will Wentz and Taylor.

Bucs run defense is tough. Wentz will have to be on his A game 

Jags- 90%
Bills- 30%
Bucs-5%

Jags 80%- They play us tough and Lawrence could get confidence vs our DB's if Paye and Dayo dont get enough pressure.

 

Bills 50%-Buffalo looked bad vs Phins last week and dont have the same swagger they had before Tenn loss

 

Bucs 60%- Struggled vs Eagles and Pats lost to Rams by double digits  then lost to Trevor Simien, Gronk isnt healthy. Will be high scoring.

Jags - 7.5/10 (they always play us closer)

 

Bills - 4/10 (not impossible but they are a very good team... )

 

Bucs - 1 /10 (Tom Brady is gonna have a field day with our Swiss cheese secondary)

 

You're probably right, but we know that when Tom is bothered in the pocket he's not as effective.  (Yes, that applies to any QB).  If they send someone on every pass situation, we may be able to rattle him.

 

But if Fluse plays that rush four, cover no one defense and hope we punch the ball out - it's going to be a long day.

 

I've said it before, if we're going to let them score, why not play aggressive?

Jags- 95%, this team has looked all around terrible

 

Bills- 60% as someone noted above seems they have lost their swagger a bit

 

Bucs-10%, Best run D in the league, Carson will have to throw lots and will probably do some more wild dumb things. Brady and all those weapons im worried will have more TD than incompletions against our D

Jags - 9.9

Bills. - 7.5

Bucs - 5.0

 

Jags - Should be no problem at home.

Bills - We played them great on the road in a playoff game last year.  We have a better QB this year.  We already know we can beat them.  We have a very real chance to get a victory at their place.

Bucs - At home I see this as a toss up.

Problem with blitzing is our DBs aren’t going to be able to hold Tampa’s receivers in 1 on 1 situations. I’m sure everyone here remembers Vontae Davis getting torched in every matchup with AB. He’ll torch Kenny too

if we can win 2 out of the 3 that would be great. TB will be the one we will lose if we play soft we need to play them very agressive if they score so be it there gonna score anyhow. throw the kitchen sink at them and maybe good things will happen

I think the Bills game will be tougher than the Bucs game, playing at Buffalo can be a nightmare. We did play them pretty even last year but to me they are the best team in the AFC. We have the Bucs at home and the Bucs have been beatable this year. Now if it was a playoff game I would never bet against Tom. 5% is a little low IMO, I see that game as 50/50 with the way our offense is playing.

I’m not confident in our defense. Non existent pass rush against a good offensive line and Tom Brady isn’t a good matchup. Plus their receivers are a pick your poison type of deal.

Lawrence, Allen, and Brady will have field days with this defense

 

I say we're going 1-2 with a win vs Jacksonville

 

 

Sadly I think you're estimation is probably going to turn out to be accurate but crazier things have happened before.  Only way to make them remotely possible is for the offense to have long sustained drives.  The more time the offense is on the field the less time theirs is.  Unless the defense finds a groove where they can actually defend the short and mid range passes though I think it's going to be a touch row to hoe.  Would be nice to see some kind of pass rush too but unless the D-Coordinator would change up the defense and force them to play the short and midrange passing game.  If he doesn't change things up he should be gone as you can't play like that in this league.  Geez a third stringer carved them up.

1.  Jaguars - 7   I was going to say 9.5 as a game "we should win" and must win.  However - after Sunday's shocking victory over the Bills - whose to say??   LOL

 

2.  Bills - 2   The Bills are going to be very focused on obliterating everyone in sight after their stinker in Jacksonville.  Plus - it's in their stadium.  I think our inconsistency gives us little chance of winning.

 

3.  Bucs - 2   The only REAL positive about this game is that it is in LOS.  Their defense is very much like ours - great against the run and wishy-washy vs the pass.

 

I LOVE my team - but - reality is that we have just been too inconsistent on both sides of the ball.

I disagree. Bucs can atleast run the ball. Bills are one dimensional. If their wrs get the drops again they lose

Also titans are best in Afc in my opinion. No other Afc opponent has beaten better teams than them

    • They won't suspend him; he did not commit an offense that warrants suspension. He might be cut to prevent a distraction, but I highly doubt that. It has almost a zero chance of happening. The Chiefs have said nothing.     My older sister worked in corporate America before she got married. When she was having her second child, she decided to quit working to stay home to care for the children. She and her husband had the means to do so and it worked out very well. After their children grew up, they decided to run their own business. So, she never worked for another person again. But that was their choice.   Our family attended her second's son commencement ceremony last Saturday. I would have been disappointed to listen to someone give a political speech. Thankfully, all the speakers gave the graduates words of inspiration, encouragement and optimism for the future. Arthur Blank addressed the graduates and was fantastic.  
    • If there's a team JJ can start right away on though, it's you guys. Between Jefferson, Addison, and TJ, he can just throw the ball up and someone will catch it. 😂   Watching his film though, he does tend to under throw receivers deep. It's weird, because he was the best QB on third down, and he was so accurate on short and intermediate depth throws. Likely needs some time in the weight room, so a redshirt wouldn't be the worst thing.
    • Woah! I spent $80 after tax and fees for high nosebleeds last year (Raiders) for my first Colts game. I always asked for tickets for Christmas every year growing up in the Peyton era, but never got it. I was a broke college student working 2 jobs living in Indy during the Luck era and couldn't afford it/always working.   I'm gonna try this. This might be a yearly thing for my wife and me if it works out. Thanks for the suggestion!  
    • I think Darnold will be the QB. I'd like McCarthy to have a red-shirt year.
    • I am a firm believer in free speech even though I may not agree with all peoples opinions. I certainly agree women have a right to have children and still participate in the work place. I do however would like for them to have their children placed in a safe environment. Personally my wife did not work and was home to raise my children which was our desire but certainly respect those who's wife though choice or necessity works outside the home. I do believe strongly in one thing he alluded to and that the country would be in better shape if children had strong fathers.   I would be shocked and disappointed if the NFL or the Chiefs decided to suspend him. Many are still in the league who in my opinion have done much worse.
