The 2014 NFL regular season schedule was released on Wednesday night, and here’s how it shook out for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

| Week 16 | 18-Dec | Jacksonville Jaguars | Tennessee Titans | 8:25P.M. | NFLN |
| Week 17 | 28-Dec | Houston Texans | Jacksonville Jaguars | 1 P.M. | CBS |
We’ll get into game-by-game predictions in a later post, but head coach Gus Bradley and his group have a pretty rough first half of the season. Coming off of a 4-win season, the Jaguars likely won’t be favored for any of their first 8-10 games. Three of their first four games are against playoff teams from 2013, and the Steelers in week 5 aren’t an easy out either.
Regardless of what happens in the draft, it looks like the Jaguars are going to have to come out of the gate motivated and ready to get some wins to start the season.
