I'd be mostly worried about the fact that the first 4 drives were almost entirely 1) the new, expensive and presumably good new QB 2) the top first round RB who has had at least 1 very good year and 3) the leading WR from last year who most would argue is the Jaguars best WR.  4 drives, almost all plays were either Foles to Fournette or Foles to Westbrook.  3 and out, then 3 and out,  then TD w/ big assist from 28 yard pass interference to Conley (only pass not to Fournette or Westbrook in the first 4 drives) and interception.

Westbrook was 4.1 yards per target.  29 yards,  4 catches, 7 targets.  Not great.  Fournette was 3.9 yards per carry.  Not great, not terrible, but not great.  2/3 for 19 yards receiving was a little better for Fournette.   But these 3, these are the stars, right?  These are not the stats of stars who win you games.  You can watch each of Foles, Fournette and Westbrook and take out the highlights, and ignore the low points and say "well we're good if there are just the highlights".  Ok, maybe.  And, it's preseason, and that doesn't matter.
