The Jacksonville Jaguars will have a better chance to beat the Tennesse Titans if Trevor Lawrence plays but if he doesn’t, wide receiver Christian Kirk thinks C.J. Beathard will be up to the task. Of course, not having Lawrence in the lineup would be a significant blow to the Jags but football is a team sport and others need to pick the slap if he’s unavailable.

Can Jacksonville beat the Titans with Beathard at the helm? It would certainly be a tough ask but it’s not impossible. The offense would need to cut down on the number of dropped passes and find rhythm early in the game. Also, the defense would need to tighten up and contain the Tennessee offense. With that in mind, here are five bold predictions for Week 14.

No. 5 The Jaguars O-line won’t allow any sacks vs. the Titans in Week 14

The Jaguars’ offensive line has had many bright spots this season but has also had a few subpar outings. Against the Detroit Lions, left tackle Cam Robinson gave up two sacks and one of them led to Trevor Lawrence’s toe injury.

Before the Lions game, Robinson had surrendered just two sacks in 2022 but other Jaguars offensive linemen have also struggled at times. This isn’t to say Robinson should get a pass for his poor performance against Detroit but rather that he’ll bounce back against the Titans and won’t allow a single sack.

Robinson’s teammates will also step up against defensive tackle Jeffrey Simmons and the rest of the Titans’ front seven.
