Why in the world would we be picked to lose to the Bucs, Colts and Texans?!?

Some of his picks for losses seem a bit random and determined be timing/schedule and odd non-performance factors, but he did say this to conclude his article:

The bar has been set. Once you've reached the main-event level, you don't want to revert back to mid-card territory. The Jaguars have not made the playoffs in consecutive years since racking up four straight postseason berths from 1996 through '99. They have not posted a winning record immediately following a playoff appearance this millennium. But I believe in these Pederson-led Jaguars. They're different. Yes, I admittedly have a soft spot for this team and this fanbase, but to me, Jacksonville isn't far away from joining the true elites in a stacked AFC. Last season was just the beginning, and I expect to see the Jags back in the playoff tourney in January.
