Call me crazy, but I actually like the fact that the Colts won against the Titans on Thursday night. I know right now Peyton Manning and his crew are finally feeling alive again, but with that victory we can officially count out the Titans. The Jaguars need three more games going their way to clinch the division next week; the best part is – they will be playing in two of those games and are thus in the driver’s seat. Now I know that neither of these two game will be easy, especially the big one next week, but I have a feeling that they can do it. For that dream scenario – the Jaguars clinching the division next week in Indianapolis – this team must defeat an all of sudden very hot and competitive team, the Oakland Raiders.

Now for years, Al Davis’s team was one of the punch lines for comics and football fans, but this year something changed. First, they had an uncharacteristically decent draft. Second, they have signed and traded for pretty good players (except ex-Jaguar Quentin Groves) lately, like Richard Seymour and John Henderson.  Third, they are playing pretty good defense. And last but not least, their running game is red hot, just like the Jaguars. However, they still have flaws and I think the match ups and some X-factors favor the Jaguars.  Let’s break this game in a unique way – which things can be an advantage for the Jags and where I have concerns about this game.
