In what is increasingly becoming a fiercely competitive AFC South, the Jaguars are fighting to stay relevant with the same core of guys they’ve had for the last couple of years. David Garrard has the reigns at quarterback, the speedy little guy in Maurice Jones-Drew headlines the running game, and the bulk of the Jags offense, and Mike Sims-Walker and veteran Torry Holt serve as the two primary passing targets.
Their defense is suspect, with each major category ranging near the bottom of the league. The only bright piece to this puzzle is in Jones-Drew. Outside of him, there isn’t much to be excited about for Jacksonville fans this coming season. Attendance never was very good in J’ville and I don’t expect it to recover this year either.
Jones-Drew will win a couple of games this season and serve as a nice fantasy pickup, but the rest of the team won’t benefit much. The Jags will be finishing last in the division this year with a record of 6-10.

Home might have never looked so good to the Jaguars early Monday morning when their charter plane touched down at the Jacksonville International Airport just a few hours after a 20-3 loss at San Francisco, the team’s second lopsided West Coast defeat of the season.
And home the Jaguars will stay for the next three weeks, at the best time possible: in December, in the thick of the AFC wild-card race despite the loss to the 49ers.
“For us to be successful, we will have to take advantage of having these home games,” fullback Greg Jones said Monday.
“We’re in control of our own destiny and you can’t ask for more than that at this time,” added guard Uche Nwaneri. “We’re fortunate to be control. Now we have three in a row at home, three huge games.”
The Jaguars (6-5) will face Houston (5-6) on Sunday at 1 p.m., followed by Miami (5-6) on Dec. 13 and Indianapolis (11-0) on Dec. 17 in a Thursday night game.
