0 is my guess, but certainly can win 2 if we can figure out the offensive woes.
The Jaguars won't be favored in any one game, but upsets happen.  We'll probably be less than 1 score under dogs against the Texans and Jets, and two score under dogs against the remaining four teams.  Keep in mind that the Texans' record is 2-3 in games with their starting quarterback.  They just went 0-6 when he was injured, but he's back now.  As for the Jets, they've been all over the place, mostly bad, but have had the occasional good game.  The game with the Jaguars will also be in New York.

As such, it seems doubtful that the Jaguars will win more than 2 games with 1 game being more likely and 0 not being surprising.

I would think the over/under would be 1 win.

As for draft order, if we assume the Jaguars can't win more than 2 games, they are guaranteed to be in the top 7 6, although likely higher than that.  If they lose out, the Jaguars are guaranteed to at worst, be picking #2.  Detroit would have to win 2 games for the Jaguars to have any chance of the #1 overall pick.

Edit:  I said that if the Jaguars win 2 or fewer games that they would be guaranteed in the top 7.  I just noticed that the Giants and Bears play each other.  As such, we would actually be guaranteed to be in the top 6.
The Jaguars are 100% capable of losing the rest of their games.

If I had to bet, I'd say 1.
I'm at the point of setting our sights for the #2 pick in the draft.
I think we figure out a way to get 2 more.

1 against the Texans or Jets

1 against the remaining schedule. Probably not the Rams though…
We will 2 more games bringing our total to 4. I believe that is the total many expected to begin the season. That is the reason I am surprised at the amount of negativity here..oh well...lol You guys crack me up sometimes
0 whatever it takes to get Urban and Baalke outta here.
2 or 3 is in reach but it maybe better to lose out. Whats the difference between 2-15 and 4-13? We need to get a couple of playmakers on this team.

Prior to the season, the Las Vegas odds for the over/under was that the Jaguars would win was 6.5 games.  You are also speculating on the 4 which is pretty much a best case scenario.  We likely only win 3 games and could easily win just 2.  I'd also note that it's doubtful that we even would have won those 2 games if it weren't for Josh Allen who Meyer inherited from the prior regime.  

It's also not just about wins and losses.  We're just not competitive in many games.  We're getting blown out almost every other week.  We also went into the season thinking that many of our rookies would be getting much more playing time which could cause us to lose a game here or there because of rookie mistakes.  Instead, only two of our rookies are getting any significant playing time despite having had 5 drafts picks in the top 65.  Winning "only" 6.5 games wouldn't be so bad if we were losing close games and we knew that our rookies were gaining valuable experience that would position us for success in 2022.  Instead, we are winning very few games, getting blown out on a regular basis, doing little to develop many of our young players and have a front office that has shown no ability to assess talent and build a team.

What crack me up is how much some people want to blindly defend Meyers.  We got to get rid of these incredibly low expectations.

Not defending anyone.  After looking at the players, coaches and organization. My opinion before the season was we were at best a 4 win team.  I was secretly hoping they would exceed that,  appears they will not. Just the way it is ...
Real gloom in here boys. I think we beat the Texans and Jets. We are really bad but those teams are also really bad. At minimum we get one of those games. Both teams actually have a worse point differential than us.

Unfortunately they will get to play us but we won't.

Unfortunately, I agree.

At the beginning of the season many of us also assumed our coach was at least semi-competent. He's gone on record saying he's either ignorant or unprepared for a lot of the responsibilities that fall squarely on his shoulders.

A lot of us assumed that the team would lean heavy on the run game while a rookie QB learned the ropes. Shows what we know, huh?

Hutchinson or Thibs round 1.

WR round 2 and 3.

2022 is our year.
I thought we were a 6 win team in August.
By halftime in week 2, i knew we were screwed until we see staff changes.
Any win would be a surprise to me at this point.
I stick by my .250 prediction.
