Predicting each AFC South team's record for the 2019 NFL season

#3 Jacksonville Jaguars: 8-8

Leonard Fournette

No, I'm not a 'Jaguars hater,' I'm simply someone who calls it as I see it. And, as I see it, the Jags haven't done enough this offseason to compete with the Colts and Texans. My main issue isn't with their defense, which is still one of the league's premier units, it's with their offense.

Similar to Houston, I'm not sure how talented the Jaguars' receiving corps is. Can Marquise Lee, who's coming into 2019 after suffering a season-ending knee injury last season, become a top target for newcomer Nick Foles? Have Keelan Cole, DJ Chark, or Dede Westbrook showcased enough to become reliable targets for Foles? What about Leonard Fournette's health? He hasn't exactly lived up to being the fourth overall selection in 2017.

But my biggest problem with Jacksonville resides at the QB position. It's not that I don't think Nick Foles is an upgrade over Blake Bortles, we just don't know how well he'll play outside Philadelphia. The Eagles' offensive line, wide receiving corps, and offensive staff are much better than Jacksonville's. So, before we put the Jags back in the AFC Championship game, let's wait and see what version of Nick Foles is brought to Duval County.
