OK you guys aren't considering actual match ups.

New England - Few teams have sufficient coverage to cover their receivers. Few teams have the pass rush to affect Brady enough. Teams that give the Pats problems are teams that have the DL to make Brady skittish (Giants). Jags have two really good CB's and a third CB that's sufficient. They have two LB's that can run with Gronk. Jags DL lead the league in sacks. The result is a skittish Brady. Pats rushing attack is nothing special this year.

So what is the MATCH UP issue the Jags would have with New England?

Kansas City - What does the Chiefs do that is beyond the Jags D? On defense they do have a great corner back and pretty good pass rushers off the edge. What sets them above any other team?

So what I'm referring too are match ups. What team just out matches the Jags due to a deficiency the team has? In years past, the Jags had no pass rush and only so-so CB's. So a team like the Pats or Colts would obliterate them. It's not the case this year.

Rushing attack from other teams - The Jags D isn't as bad as those big runs make it seem. They actually have a darn good rush defense which will get better and by the year end, I bet will be top 15. Just need more games to average out those long runs they surrendered.

Up by two scores - I believe the coach's shouldn't panic and continue to use the rushing attack to walk the team down. They shouldn't resort to pass only so early just because they are down.
