The Jacksonville Jaguars have a tough task today as former head coach Jack Del Rio returns with his new team, the Oakland Raiders.

The Jaguars have played a fairly tough schedule to start the 2016 season, but they probably face their most difficult test today against a resurgent Oakland Raiders squad. Juxtaposed against one another, the Raiders and Jaguars have been the poster children for how to rebuild your roster.

Both teams had a ton of buzz heading into the season, but only one has really delivered. The Raiders have looked terrific for the most part through 6 weeks thanks to the stellar play of Derek Carr. The third year passer has outshined his counterpart Blake Bortles and it hasn’t really been close. Bortles has to change that narrative today somewhat for the Jaguars to have any shot at winning.

The Oakland defense is the worst in the NFL at stopping passing attacks, so this has to be the day Bortles figures things out. On the other side of the ball, the Jacksonville defense has improved mightily, but they still aren’t rushing the passer consistently. The Jaguars need their young LEOs to perform well against a stout offensive line today, otherwise Carr is going to pick them apart.
