Our D will keep it close into the 3rd quarter but wear down when the offense doesn't get anything going consistently. The Rams will sell out to stop Fournette and Ivory. They hit a couple of big plays late and the final score is something like 27-13.  

Newsflash: Everyone does this.

Seahawks did a good job of containing Gurley so I imagine the Jags will try to take a similar approach. Colvin vs Kupp will be a key matchup as will Telvin vs Gurley on 3rd down. The Rams Oline is improved so that will be a good test for our pass rushers.

Rams have Donald who is an absolute monster so they gotta do their best against him.

As with every Jags game this season, I have no clue what will happen because this team is up and down but winning in Pitt the way they did could spark something.

To a point, but I think the last couple of games have shown that they can almost go nearly goal line defense.  Of course Bortles could have one of his "one out of every five" performances where he not only looks competent, he looks like an actual franchise QB.  If that happens, we'll likely win regardless of what they scheme but I just don't see that happening in this game. Hope I'm wrong though.
