Not so fast. Tennessee is more likely to win in Week 15 with a trip to Santa Clara. We can get ahead in Week 16 because they host the Rams while we visit the 49ers, but it will still come down to the season finale.

Wrong again. Please do a little research and critical thinking before posting such inaccurate and incorrect information. It's really not that difficult; they have playoff calculators all over the internet. And any true Jags fan would want the Jags to lock up the division before heading to tenn so that Jacksonville can rest starters. But we all know Jacksonville is like your third or fourth favorite team anyway.

Explain to me how stating a prediction is not thinking critically or being a Jaguars fan. Nothing I said implied I want the division to be decided in Nashvile. You completely made that up by not thinking critically yourself.

Also, anyone who knows anything about the NFL playoff format knows teams don't think about resting their starters until their seeding is set in stone.

There is no reason to suggest teams will rest the starters. Even if we clinch the division early, seeding is still TBD. I already stated that earlier.

But I already proved you wrong. You just ignored my post.

You did not prove anything to me except that you just want to argue. Why can't you see indisputable video evidence that teams continue to play their starters unless they are locked into a seed?

Look, we have to see what happens elsewhere in the AFC to know whether we clinch the #3 or #4 seed in Week 17 even if the division title is clinched in Week 16.

You said there is zero chance that the last game means nothing.

I simply stated that are scenarios where the last game can not hurt or help the Jags seeding. You simply want to ignore that.

Let's go one week at a time here. Every game is a must-win no matter what other AFC teams do because we are playing for the division title.So I am only going to think about beating the Seahawks.

Eagles @ Rams is the nationally televised game. Literally all they did was make this game easier on the Seahawks by changing the time. I still think we win, but I’d feel much better about a 1pm start.

This is, essentially, a playoff game. Seattle is the type of quality opponent we'll face in the playoffs. Big test for us.

Exactly. The one thing our D line struggles with is QB's who can escape the pocket and extend plays. We are fantastic at collapsing pockets but Wilson be scrambling all afternoon. We should be able to dominate their O-line and should be able to contain a pretty poor Seattle rush attack. Pass D is our D's speciality and Seattle have Baldwin, Richardson and Jimmy Graham, they all all quality players who make plays. Going to be fun and a tough matchup for Bouye and Ramsey 

Now our O worries us. Yes Seattle are missing Sherman and Chancellor but they still have Earl Thomas and Shaq Griffin has played really well the last few weeks. They still have Wagner, one of the best LB's in the game and Clark and Bennett on the D-line, they are good players and if we are still struggling at O-line and can't get the run game going then we are in trouble. Yes Blake played fantastic on Sunday but it's 1 game, against a very bad D.

For me, this is it for Blake, the make or break game. Coming off probably his best game, against a good playoff chasing team, important game for our playoff chances. He's got to show he actually is an NFL starting QB. Seattle are a different beast in Seattle and some of their road games have been shocking, hopefully we can start fast and get them chasing but strap in Sunday everyone, it' going to be classic 'Cardiac' Cat's.

The change to 4:25 makes sense for the NFL because playoffs are at stake for both teams with the Seahawks teetering between a wild card spot and barely missing thef playoffs. (I have been seeing them flip with the Falcons in recent weeks.) The Eagles/Rams game is perfect for SNF, while ours againsdt the Seahawks is not.

Both games will be played at 4:25. Eagles/Rams is  the nationally televised “America’s Game of the Week” broadcast (according to 506 sports). Our game against Seattle will only be shown in The Jacksonville and Seattle markets. It has nothing to do with ratings or playoffs.

You are totally ignorant if you think it has nothing to do with the playoffs. There is no other possible reason for the NFL to flex it. Why do you think the NFL started flexing late-season games in the first place?

The 4:25 kickoff is a much better time than 1:00 for people who want to watch the game, Fox, and the NFL.

This, right here, is why people don't like you, by the way.

If they flexed it due to the playoffs, why are there so few markets covering it?  Seems like if it were for ratings reasons, the coverage would be more even.

Many people think that this was a setup for the Seahawks to win.  I don't know if that's necessarily true, but it's no reason to call someone ignorant.

I like that we'll be at home and in the teal unis. Aside from that, I like our defense in this game especially if Telvin is back. We have to force Wilson to throw from the pocket. Our offensive line has to play one of its best games. Otherwise, like we do against every other NFC west coast team we'll lose. Hopefully no special teams mistakes costing us points like in the Rams game. They are a banged up group as well.

No pain, no gain.

TBH 75% the board replies and feeds into it... just relax and chill... no need to respond .... he/she/ts/it is feeding u all.. the one thing i noticed about this board is when jdub post something... everyoneeeee responds... yall are robotic... chill out lol

Because of the Eagles/Rams game, of course. Most TV markets want to show that game because it has much higher stakes. In fact the Eagles can finally clinch the division title with a win. Both teams are candidates for a first round bye and the Rams also risk being relegated to a wild card slot.

The idea that it is not related to the playoffs only makes sense if the game was originally scheduled for 4:25. The only reason the NFL decided to start flexing games late in the season is to draw higher ratings by showing real playoff contenders, which this year include the Jaguars and Seahawks, when more people are able to watch the games. It is also why some NFC games are flipped to CBS and some AFC games are flipped to Fox. The fact that our game will not be shown in many TV markets outside the Pacific Northwest and northern/central Florida does not mean it has nothing to do with the playoffs.

Something to keep in mind for this game.

The Seahawks are the most penalized team in the NFL.

We learned in the Sunday School who made the sun shine through.  I know who made the moonshine too, back where I come from.

Does anyone have injury updates on Allen Hurns, Cam Robinson, or Telvin Smith?
