Coming it at number TWO!!!  That may be highest I can ever remember seeing the team on any real power rankings list.  I've also seen the team at two on another YouTuber's channel power rankings but was very suprised to see NFL.com having the team that high.



RANK 2

JAGUARS 2
Previous rank: No. 4

"Shocked? Don't be. Sure, this is a nod to what the Jaguars accomplished last season and how strong they are heading into the preseason. Going beyond those factors, the absences of Julian Edelman (and others) in New England and Aaron Donald in Los Angeles weaken the Patriots and Rams enough to allow Jacksonville to move up another notch. Of course, so much depends on Blake Bortles' play at quarterback. If he fares like he did in the 2017 postseason, Jacksonville will beat New England come Week 2."

I certainly love the clout we are receiving, but I think everything in this division is going to be tighter so I hope we come through
The AFC South may now be one of the most competitive divisions in the NFL.
- Luck back
- Watt and Watson back
- TEN made the playoffs last year

The key is to win the division. I think whoever goes 4-2 in the division wins it.

*Avoiding significant injuries is critical. We lost Robinson in game 1, that's the only major 8njurybI recall.
In all honesty, I don't give a [BLEEP] about this, or Ramsey, or Fowler, or.....

Only thing that matters to me is where we finish.
I liked the Aretha Franklin reference in the title.

I haven't looked it up but our 1999 team that went 14-2 in the regular season was at least that high.
After watching our offense against the Saints I can't blame them... They're the only question mark (aside from injuries of course)

I do think the AFC South will be tougher this year, but the Colts will suck again I called it now you can quote me on that! A QB isn't taking a team with a talentless other 52 players and being competitive in a division with three other playoff caliber teams. Not happening. They may win 5-6 games this year you heard it here first.
Well don't go out on too much of a limb there. Pretty sure I might have heard the clots will suck again somewhere before you posted that. Imagine that.

IDK I keep hearing how the AFC south will be so much tougher this season abs everytime Lucks return is mentioned as a reason. That team is garbage rn, I'm just tired of hearing that.. Luck isn't THAT good to make that garbage team competitive so why does everybody keep mentioning that? 

Here's another prediction, Watson will never duplicate the success he had for that 5 or 6 week stretch as a rookie again.
