Jacksonville at Seattle Game Preview
Why Jacksonville Will Win
The Jaguars were playing relatively well before getting a week off.
They were running just fine, the passing game worked in London in the win over Miami, and all the – let’s just say it like this – periphery things have chilled out a bit.
