What does the Jaguar Report staff think about the Jaguars' chances tonight?
The Jacksonville Jaguars will look to extend their winning streak to four games, but they will face a tough test with the New Orleans on a short week.John ShipleyI expect this to be one of the sloppier games of the Jaguars' 2023 season, but that doesn't really matter much as long as they come away with the win.
The Saints' offense has floundered all season and there just don't seem to be many easy answers for them. On a short week with a banged-up line and with the Jaguars' defense playing inspired football, I expect the Jaguars to dominate defensively to set up a few easy possessions for the Jaguars.With uncertainty at quarterback, this is a hard game to predict. If Trevor plays and is good to go, this becomes a much easier game to predict, however, his health is a major uncertainty.
The key for the Jags defensively is to prevent the Saints’ Alvin Kamara from gashing them with yards after the catch on short passes at the running back position. Doing so will force 3rd-and-longs that will give Jacksonville’s Josh Allen opportunity to force New Orleans’ David Carr into making mistakes under center.
The coaching match-up here makes the difference as Doug Pederson pencil whips Dennis Allen to secure the 30-20 Jaguars victory.This is not an easy game to predict. With Trevor Lawrence's knee injury leaving him questionable, my confidence in the game distills down to 1) whether or not he plays and 2) how confident he feels on his knee if he does play.
