But can we take advantage of his absence?

I've seen too many times over the years where a unit of an opposing team is depleted, yet the Jaguars were unable to capitalize on it.

A few years back, Seattle's offensive line was decimated by injuries, but we couldn't do anything about it, and they beat us 41-0.

Further back, we lost to Tennessee at home even though their secondary was down to their 7th and 8th guys.

I'd like to think the Texans would miss Brown against us, but I've been disappointed before.

Did you ever consider who made up our DL that day in Seattle? It was nothing like our current front four. That was in 2010, when Matt Hasselback and Shaun Alexander were in their primes and we did not have nearly as much talent as we do now on defense. And we all know about the 12th Man combined with our dreadful West coast record.
