Strengths and weaknesses of every AFC South team and how Colts can beat them

Jacksonville Jaguars – Last Season (3-14)

The Jaguars did in fact beat Indy again last year in Jacksonville. Believe it or not, the Colts have not won in Jacksonville since 2014. Going into the game last year all Indy had to do was win and they were in the playoffs. They did not win, so they were at home watching the postseason.

In addition to the Week 18 win, the Jags had many things to be pleased about last year on offense, as rookie Trevor Lawrence showed why he was the No. 1 overall pick.

Moves in the offseason that will benefit the Jaguars’ offense

The Jaguars suffered a lot of injuries last year in their backfield and they are getting their top two running backs healthy, which will give this offense a good look. Doug Pederson was hired as the head coach this offseason. Pederson won a super bowl with the Eagles and knows how to win. They also brought in star-wideout Christian Kirk on a 4-year, 72 million dollar contract. That is a lot of money, so you best believe that he will be a focal point on that team.

What the Colts need to do to sweep the Jaguars this season

In the Colts’ home win last year, Indy ran for almost 200 yards. The recipe for success for this Indianapolis team is the same against the Jags… RUN THE BALL! If they can dominate both lines of scrimmage as they should, they will be successful.

Prediction for this season

I believe that the Colts get over the hump this season and sweep the Jaguars for the first time in what seems like ages.  Matt Ryan will take control of the game and lead the Colts to pretty easy wins in both games I feel. The Jaguars just do not have enough star power to beat Indianapolis this season.
