HOUSTON TEXANS or CLEVELAND
It's got to be NE. They will torch the Eagles secondary. Brady picked apart Lito Shepard and Sheldon Brown in the preseason. Yes, I know it was preseason but he made them look like fools. Now, Shepard and Brown must try to take Bobby Taylor's spot. Add in that the Eagles best defender, Brian Dawkins is also out and you have Tom Brady smiling. Pats outright.
Jax +3 if you can still get it.
First of all i am a seasonticket holder so my opinion naturally comes with some bias. I am not however someone who just bets on his team or won't bet against his team.
Since Jack Del Rio came to Jacksonville he has been talking about protecting the home turf. The whole motto for the offseason and preseason has been to win at home no matter what. Jacksonville has some ticket problems in fact today's game is blacked out in Jacksonville and a 75 mile radius as mandated by the league.
This alone doesn't mean really much as i am sure all teams want to win at home, however i am sure that the Jags will be ready.
Contrary to what you saw last week, the Jaguar defense is much improved. Up front they are very solid with the two kids Henderson and Stroud and they have Hugh Douglas and Tony Brackens on the ends. The defense should play very well today and keep Buffalo in check. I am not sure our offense is as proficient as it looked last week (Brunnel 23-27, 272, 2/0) but it will be able to move the ball and score enough to not only cover the game, but to win it outright easier than most expect.
Buffalo is in a HUGE sandwich game. They whomped New England last week in what had to be an emotional game and they have the Dolphins next week in another division game. It is a classic letdown spot for the Bills.
The Jags go to Indy next week and Houston the week after that. An 0-3 start will get not sit well with the fans, and Del Rio and the players know it. Again, some teams at the end of three weeks are going to be 0-3 and i am sure none of those players or coaches want to be there either. This is a new Regime and i just don't see it happening.
Call my opinion biased, but i think both teams walk off of the field 1-1 today in a surpisingly easy win for the Jags.
Good Luck!
