10-6

I'll say 8-8 until we show we can win more then 1 game in a row

I dislike making predictions, but I said it felt like we were entering a purgatory phase and that's exactly how it feels still.

Same as before preseason. 6-10/7-9

We're going 10-6

Right now I say 8-8.

When I look around the NFL, at how other teams are doing, I think we've reached a level of average.

I think if we had 3 or 4 more really good players on offense, including a QB and an offensive lineman and a TE, we would be a contender. So once more it appears we are one good offseason away from being good. Seems like it's that way every year.

I don't know how people are finding 6 more wins. If we couldn't beat the hapless jets a team we were "supposed" to beat, how can we guarantee any wins, even against the Browns?

There never are no guaranteed wins in the NFL. Some people were picking Houston to win the division, now they're 2-2. The Jags are better than they've been the last few years and while they're not a good team yet, are competitive enough to win half of their remaining games.

I'm just going to extrapolate out to 8-8 at this point. More would be great, less wouldn't be too surprising.

Especially since the roughest part of our schedule is done after this week.

I'll bet that if we had taken a preseason poll, the consensus would have been losses to the Texans and the Ravens, and wins over the Titans and the Jets.

No way the Jags can beat the Ravens and Texans.....

This team is very up and down which usually leads to 8-8.

This team will make the playoffs. Win at least one game during. They will do this with BB5 at the helm.

It's so hard to predict this team right now. The defense alone makes you want to lean their way almost every single game. I wouldn't put it past them to pull an upset over the Steelers this weekend.

We were one bad holding call away from being 3 - 1 on Sunday. We were one dropped pass in overtime from being 3 - 1 on Sunday. We played down to our competition but I really was concerned with this team coming back from London.

I'll say we're 7 - 9 by the end of the year. I felt 6 - 10 was reasonable. But I'll give them another win somewhere, somehow this year. I always circle back to Bortles though. We can't depend on him. 35 pass attempts on Sunday and boy were the majority of his passes FUGLY as hell.

And as much as I love Fournette. Watson is looking pretty damn good for the tinhorns. May turn out being a mistake down the road if he keeps progressing. At this point this team could use an Alex Smith for a few years and hope we can draft a kid like Mayfield or Rosen to groom up behind him.

To go 500. Blake will need to win 2 or 3 games. On his own. I don't see that happening. With the loss of Robinson. Unless someone steps up. So have to swing at 7-9 but more like 6-10.

Fournette has not shown he is the home run TD machine like everyone envisioned this year. Mojo did more with less. And certainly can't shine Taylor Made shoes as of yet.

The defense and run game is good enough to win 6-8 games. Bortles play will determine if we win 9 or more. We won 3 games last year cause all we had was a defense. No pass game and no run game. That’s where the other 3-4 games will be made up this year.

I say 6-10 which will probably be good enough to remove us from the running for the top draft QBs.

We’ll be okay. It’s like 12 qbs coming out next year and a few vets like Brees, Garapopalo and Cousins. Next year is literally the year of the quarterback.

7-9 at best. But 8-8 could get into the playoffs the way this division has been shaking up so far so still hold on to some hope my friends.

Week 5 @ Steelers =L
Week 6 vs Rams= L
Week 7 @ Colts=W
Week 8 Bye
Week 9 vs Bengals= L
Week 10 vs Chargers L
Week 11 @ Browns=W
Week 12 @ Cardinals= W
Week 13 vs Colts=W
Week 14 vs Seahawks=L
Week 15 vs Texans= W
Week 16 @ 49ers= L
Week 17 @ Titans L

Still thinking 5-11... but hoping its more like 7-9

They already got 2 wins.

So they're going to finish the season by going 3-9?
