NFL Sunday Week #3

Jaguars vs. Bills Predictions ​

---

Bills 28, Jaguars 24​

Zach Goodall writes "The Jaguars’ offense will appear in rhythm, particularly the rushing attack with Travis Etienne Jr. and Tank Bigsby each having a productive night. But the Bills’ rushing attack will be similarly effective if not more, headlined by emerging star running back James Cook and the ever-dynamic Josh Allen, leading Buffalo to pull off the victory."

Bills 31, Jaguars 14​

Hans A. Hansen lll writes "Buffalo has a massive advantage on the offensive side of the ball with its passing attack poised to break out against a weak and underwhelming Jaguars secondary. Buffalo wins in blowout fashion heading into a massive Sunday night game against the Ravens next week."

Pearson writes "The Jaguars just haven't looked right on offense in their 2 games and this game isn't going to be any easier on the road in Buffalo against this new-look Bills team. The Bills are rolling right now on both offense and defense while the Jaguars are still trying to figure things out this year and get into a rhythm on the field, something they haven't really been able to find." ​

Bills 24, Jaguars 17 ​

Vinnie Iyer writes "The Bills have looked fantastic in two games with Josh Allen in total control of a more efficient, run-heavy offense and diverse passing game under Joe Brady. Their defensive weakness lies vs. the run and the middle of the field in coverage, but with the way Trevor Lawrence is looking too much downfield, they can put good pressure on him on the road. Meanwhile, Allen will get to flex his deep arm more often vs. an overwhelmed secondary."
The Jaguars were considered a potential threat to rebound and get back to the playoffs by some. If they’re going to rise up, this is the week to do so, especially since the Jaguars nearly righted their season with a win against Buffalo last year. But this is a near-impossible spot for the Jags. Take the Bills to win and to cover.

• Final score prediction: Bills 31, Jaguars 14

Written By Trent Pruitt>>>> Circling back on Buffalo’s receiving room, I just can’t emphasize enough how pedestrian of a group this is. This team doesn’t have much of a vertical threat in the passing game, which leads me to believe we won’t see a lot of huge chunk plays or long scores. For the Bills, they know their receivers are a weakness, as they’ve run the ball on 57.3% of their plays. That’s the fifth-highest mark in the NFL. Jacksonville rounds out the top half of the league at 16th, utilizing the run on 44.76% of their plays. As I said above, this game profiles like a 24-20 game, or maybe in the 21-17 or 20-17 range. I think we’ll see quite a bit of running from Buffalo, ultimately shortening the game and limiting the possessions.

I won’t be be jumping on anything in this game, but I definitely have a lean on Buffalo. So, if you’re desperately looking for something here, lay the points. Based on everything we have seen this season, the Jaguars are going to have a lot of trouble defending the Bills. And Buffalo’s defense shouldn’t be tested too much by this Jacksonville offense. The Bills are also riding high coming into this game. They’re looking like the favorites to win the AFC East. Meanwhile, we aren’t too far away from the wheels falling off for the Jaguars. It has been quite some time since Jacksonville played inspiring football, and Doug Pederson’s seat is getting hotter. Lean: Bills -5 (-110)
