The Jacksonville Jaguars are riding about as high as a 2-6 team possibly could be. On Sunday, they pulled off their first win in the United States in more than a calendar year and upset one of the league’s best teams, the Buffalo Bills, in the process.
It was a huge win for coach Urban Meyer and his young roster, and now the Jags enter a much more manageable stretch of games. That starts this weekend with a road matchup against the Indianapolis Colts, who are 4-5 but have been playing much better football as of late, winning three of their last four.
This is the first matchup between the two teams in 2021, and Jacksonville’s Week 1 win over Indianapolis last year was its only victory during the entire season. This is a winnable game this time around, but it certainly won’t come easy. Here are four reasons this game could prove to be a challenge.
