I know this is hard because the jaguars preseason was a complete joke. In my mind there is no doubt there is some good young talent on this team. The roster is razor then though. I think this team is in much worse shape then most when it comes to relying on depth. The next man up approach will not work for the jaguars because behind every starter on the team it's a pretty big drop off.
I see 2 scenarios:
If the team remains healthy: I can see a 10-11 win season and taking the division. I think this defense is good enough to carry this team as long as the offense can be efficient and not turnover the football.
If the team suffers a major injury to any of the core players: It's a 4-6 win season. Houston and Tennessee are good enough to sweep this team and the outside division schedule is pretty brutal.
I'm choosing to drink the teal koolaid and predict a 10-6 record winning the afc south.
9
Why isn’t this an option in the poll???
I think our talent is .500 baseline. If we stay pretty healthy I think we can win 9 or 10 with the Luck news and the Texans having their Lamar Miller/Clowney issues. If we have injuries along last years level we could easily pick top 10 again.

Yea... I'd say if your team loses half of it's roster to IR, picking top 10 is pretty damn likely...
We could win 10-11, but if we suffer any injuries at QB or OT, we could finish with 4 or 5 wins. It all depends on if we stay healthy in key areas.
This season's record is almost impossible to accurately predict.
Most will probably feel like it all depends on how we look week 1 vs. KC,
...get blown out and it's looking like a 4-6 win season
...stay competitive and it feels like 7-10 wins are coming
...dominate KC defensively and show an offensive pulse and we're looking at 11+
And then of course, factor in that injuries would be more crippling to this team than almost any other team in the league
My early guess is 7 wins, 9 losses.
KC = loss
HOU = loss
TEN = win
DEN = loss
CAR = loss
NO = loss
CIN = win
NYJ = win
HOU = win
IND = win
TEN = loss
TB = win
LAC = loss
OAK = loss
ATL = loss
IND = win
10 wins.

I'm convinced we'll have one of the best if not the best defense in the NFL. All Foles has to do is play consistently and avoid turnovers and we should be a playoff team.
I am a Debbie Downer 5-7 wins this season.
Just not impressed by the offense, the defense will die on the field.
Hope I am wrong.
Without any major injury, could be a 10 wins season.
With indy going down I think 9-7, it was 8-8 prior to luck tho.
10+ as this team is close, along with talent, I think this is going to be a great year. (Healthy of course)
I think our window is 7 wins to 9 wins.
Hope I’m wrong but I don’t see more than 7 wins on the schedule
No more than 9 wins. I could easily see 7 or fewer as well.
Went down the middle with 8-8, but we really need to see Foles a few games.
This is probably the before a whistle has blown optimism but I think we can fight our way to 10 wins this season. 9-7 could get us in. I would be so happy with playoffs.
This is a team built to be a Coughlin playoff, win anywhere, anyway team. Just got to get in.
all of you are wrong,all of the experts are wrong. its time for my secreat to be revealed now.
the season depends on 2 things this year. 1. my lucky penny(note just got it this year) 2. how much i belieave in the lucky penny.
If i 100% belieave in the lucky penny Jags are going to the super bow; if im at 25% or less belieaveing in the lucky penny,its going to be a long season.
right now im at 36%,but that could get lower or higher before sunday gets here.
as for the teams overall record we can't predict it until after the first game cuase our starters never played a full game,nor half.

I have so many questions regarding this post but don't even know where to begin. Just dig deep for belief, Wolfie.
