I guess I'm one of those not fun realists. 

I think each team has a way to win this one. I think it's a slightly easier path for the Jags than the bills to make that happen. 

Much of it hinges on the run game for the Jags. If they get Fournette going early it will bode well. If they don't then Bortles must play smart with the ball against a secondary that has 14 picks between Tre White, and safeties Poyer and Hyde. Jags receivers can get open vs these guys - but Blake must be sure not to repeat mistakes from recent weeks. 

Defensively the Jags need to do three things: 
Contain the QBs mobility
Limit the TE Clay
Limit whatever back carries the ball

The rest of the defensive stuff all favors the Jags. 

Personally - I think the Jags OC (Hackett) gets a bit crafty with the FB and TEs to help spring Fournette and the other backs in the run game and Blake only needs to pass about 25 times to get the necessary points up.  

I'm guessing it's a 23 -16 Jags victory.

Agree in general with your assessment. It does hinge on the Jags ground game. This Bills best shot is to get ahead early, and force Bortles to play catch-up. At some points this season, our run D has been great, but it has not been good as of late. Pretty awful actually. But if we can manage to score first and force Bortles into some erratic throws, the Bills could sneak this one out. My biggest concern is that Tyrod doesn't take many shots downfield, but it appears that that is where the Jags D is most beatable. So hopefully he throws caution to the wind on some deep balls this week. We're playing with house money anyways, might as well take some shots.

That has 0 to do with class.  He was making a joke and how is he supposed to know his life story?

You had a fan here saying that many Bills fans would be looking for a fight in the upper decks.  If you want to look at class, there it is. 

If you are going to come on another teams message board you should expect Jaguar fans to have a slanted view towards the Jags, but if anyone said anything comparably as dumb as the Jags backed into the playoffs and acted like the Bills didn't they would have quite a few responses from Jag fans.
