It’s a battle between 3-10 teams in Jacksonville as the Jaguars play host to the New York Jets Sunday.
Mac Jones and the Jags scratched out a 10-6 win over Will Levis and the Titans last Sunday while Aaron Rodgers and the Jets were losing in OT by the score of 32-26 to the Dolphins in Miami.
This will be Jones’ 3rd start in place of the injured Trevor Lawrence (concussion). Jacksonville has scored just 30 points in his two starts.
Rodgers has started each of New York’s 13 games, but the offense has had issues finding the endzone. They have scored at least 21 in each of their last three games…but have lost each. The good news for Aaron Rodgers and the Jets? The Jags’ pass defense ranks as the worst in the NFL, allowing the second-most passing yards per game (263.5), the most TD passes (23), and the highest QB rating (111.6).
Lets stop trying to put lipstick on a pig and dive into the matchup and find a few sweats.
