Jaguars Seek to Ride Momentum for More in 2023

Jaguars Seek to Ride Momentum for More in 2023

Trevor Lawrence was a breakout star in his first season under head coach Doug Pederson. Still, the Jaguars are loaded with weapons in 2023. And if Lawrence can make another NFL odds leap from good to great, this team could be aggressive in the postseason. Additionally, Calvin Ridley could have a major impact on this team. The Jags made the playoffs without a top-tier receiver corps. Now Ridley gives Trevor Lawrence a legitimate No. 1 to target. Since everyone else in the AFC South looks to be rebuilding, it’s easy to buy Jacksonville as a playoff team.

The Jaguars are returning to Sunday Night and Monday Night Football for the first time in over a decade. They’ll host the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday, Dec. 4 (8:15 p.m. ET, ESPN), and welcome the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, Dec. 17 (8:20 p.m. ET) for prime-time football.

The Jaguars haven’t played an offshore betting Sunday night game in 15 years (a 26-21 loss at home to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Oct. 5, 2008) and haven’t played a Monday night game in 12 years (a 38-14 loss at home to the San Diego Chargers on Dec. 5, 2011). Both streaks were the longest active in the NFL, per ESPN Stats & Information.

2023 Jacksonville Jaguars Offseason Moves

Anton Harrison allowed just nine total pressures from 447 pass-blocking snaps in 2022. Consider that Cam Robinson was suspended for the first six games of the 2023 season. Thus, the Jaguars needed to find a tackle to start in his place. And Harrison can do just that. Additionally, 2021 second-rounder Walker Little has never started a full season at tackle in his career. So if he struggles on the left side, Harrison has the NFL betting odds flexibility and experience from college to play there.

In sum, the running backs in 2022 were Travis Etienne Jr. and a banged-up James Robinson and JaMycal Hasty. Since then, they added D’Ernest Johnson, and they drafted Auburn’s Tank Bigsby in the third round. There’s much better depth now behind Etienne and Bigsby. Correlate that will boost the team’s short-yardage struggles.
