Jaguars cornerback A.J. Bouye is dealing with a calf injury as Sunday's game against the Colts inches closer.

Analysis: Bouye's status remains a chief concern of the Jags as Sunday's divisional tilt looms in the distance. The Jags have been reeling as of late dropping each of their last four contests. While most of the issues have remained with the offense, the defense is far from last year's shutdown unit. Jacksonville has surrendered 20-plus points in each of their last four games and seems to be going through a small-dose of an identity crisis given the recent drop off. Based on the talent, it's tough to look…read more

Jaguars cornerback A.J. Bouye is nursing a calf injury ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles in London.

Analysis: Despite the three-game losing streak in Jacksonville has given up a combined 90 points, the Jags still boast the league's second-best total defense (301.6 YPG). It's been somewhat of a confusing last month for this unit as it seems as though offensive question marks and inefficiencies have trickled down and affected the defense. The Jags still have an abundance of playmakers on the defensive side of the ball and it's unlikely to expect the struggles to continue for much longer. This defense is…read more

The Jaguars have allowed 70 points over the last two weeks as they head into Sunday's matchup with the Texans.

Analysis: The Jaguars offense certainly hasn't helped with seven giveaways and only 21 points in the last two games, but the defense hasn't played remotely close to its talent level in back-to-back blowout losses. Houston has allowed the second most sacks in the league (25) and QB Deshaun Watson has committed nine turnovers, although his play-making ability makes him dangerous regardless. The first game of Jacksonville's down stretch came against a dynamic Chiefs offense, but last week's embarrassing…read more

The Jaguars have allowed 70 points over the last two weeks as they head into Sunday's matchup with the Texans.

Analysis: The Jaguars offense certainly hasn't helped with seven giveaways and only 21 points in the last two games, but the defense hasn't played remotely close to their talent level in the two blowout losses. Houston has allowed the second most sacks in the league (25) and QB Deshaun Watson has committed nine turnovers, although his play-making ability makes him dangerous regardless. The first game of Jacksonville's struggles understandably came against Kansas City, but last week's embarrassing outing…read more

The Jaguars conceded a season-high 30 points during last week's blowout loss to the Chiefs. They'll draw a matchup with the Cowboys in Week 6.

Analysis: All eyes were fixated on last week's matchup between the league's top-ranked scoring defense and top-ranked scoring offense, with Patrick Mahones and the Chiefs ultimately displaying the more dominant unit. It was the first time all season that Jacksonville's defense seemed vulnerable, but that may be more of a testament to Kansas City's offense than a slight to the Jaguars. Even with last week's poor showing, Jacksonville still ranks first in total defense (292.2 yards per game) and third in…read more

The Jaguars limited the Jets to 12 points in Week 4. They'll get a stiffer test in Week 5 against the Chiefs in Kansas City.

Analysis: Sunday's matchup brings together a clash of potent forces, as Jacksonville's top-ranked defense will collide with Kansas City's high-octane offense. If there was ever going to be a time to even consider sitting Jacksonville, perhaps this would be said time. Even so, it's tough to justify betting against the league's top-rated scoring defense (14.0 points per game) and total defense (259.3 yards per game). Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will make just his sixth career start. Assuming Mahomes…read more

Jaguars defensive end Calais Campbell (ankle) is listed as questionable fo Sunday's tilt with the Jets.

Analysis: The Jags suffered a bit of a setback in Week 2 falling to the Titans just one week after an impressive victory over the Patriots. Despite the loss, defense was not an area of concern. Jacksonville kept Tennessee out of the end zone and limited the Titans to just three field goals. Of particular note, Jacksonville didn't force a turnover in Sunday's contest despite forcing at least one turnover in each of the team's first two games. With the Jets and rookie quarterback Sam Darnold on the…read more

Jaguars defensive end Calais Campbell (eye) is considered to be questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans.

Analysis: Despite the questionable designation, it looks as though Campbell will be ready for Sunday's game which is great news for a Jaguars defense that, while among the league's best, is somewhat thin along the defensive line should Campbell be held out. Jacksonville will take on the Titans in Week 3. The matchup heavily favors Doug Marrone's defense given the limited offensive weapons on Tennessee's offense. You don't need much convincing to throw the Jags into your starting lineup, but if Marcus…read more

The Jags held the Giants to just 15 points during Sunday's 20-15 win.

Analysis: Sacksonville was limited to just two quarterback takedowns in their 2018 debut, but Myles Jack did return an Eli Manning interception for a touchdown Sunday. Had it not been for Saquon Barkley's 68-yard touchdown scamper in the fourth quarter, Jacksonville would have exited Week 1 with a dominating performance on the surface. The Jags have seemingly carved out a role as one of the best defensive options on a weekly basis. Even with New England on the Sunday forecast, Doug Marrone's bunch are…read more

The Jaguars starting defense is fully healthy heading in Sunday's regular season finale against the Titans.

Analysis: Jacksonville is coming off a 44-33 loss to the 49ers, and although San Fran did benefit from an interception return for a touchdown, the Jags defense recorded only one sack and one turnover in the contest. "Sacksonville" will undoubtedly be hoping for a rebound performance as they gear up for the playoffs, and Titans QB Marcus Mariota has struggled with 15 interceptions and only 12 touchdown passes in 14 games this season. The Tennessee offense ranks in the bottom half of the league…read more

The Jaguars have the best scoring defense in the NFL, allowing 14.9 points per game.

Analysis: The unit also ranks second in takeaways (31), third in total yards (284.1 per game) and first in the league in sacks 51. The matchup against the 49ers in Week 16 isn't as exciting as it would have been earlier in the season, with new starting quarterback Jimmy Garropolo providing a major spark to the team's offense. Regardless, San Francisco still has limited offensive weapons for their new signal caller, while Jacksonville has no shortage of defensive playmakers. The Jaguars should remain in…read more

The Jaguars starting defense remains fully healthy heading into Sunday's AFC South game against the Texans.

Analysis: The Jacksonville defense leads the lead in points allowed (15.5 per game), passing yards allowed (174.2 per game), takeaways (30) and sacks (47), and have unquestionably been the best defense this season. The Texans will put T.J. Yates under center on Sunday, and the Jaguars will have another opportunity to feast on a backup quarterback. Houston has given up the sixth-most sacks in the league (41) and has the third-most giveaways (24), making the Jaguars a no brainer fantasy defense, but at…read more

Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey is nursing an ankle injury ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Analysis: Ramsey's availability could hold significant weight on Sunday's forecast. With MVP candidate Russell Wilson across the ball, the Jaguars will face one of their toughest tests this season. If you have been fortunate enough to have them on your side up to this point, you realize how dominant Jacksonville has been all year long. We're not suggesting to avoid the Jags, but rather be wary of the various possibilities given Wilson's ability to move around the pocket and avoid the rush.

Jacksonville ranks as the league's top scoring and total defense entering Week 13.

Analysis: Sacksonville has been nothing short of exceptional this season. With an inferior Colts offense on the horizon, it won't take much convincing to get you in support of the Jags defense this week. For starters, the Jags not only led the way in total defense (288.1 YPG) and scoring defense (15.3 PPG), but Jacksonville ranks second across the league with 25 takeaways this year. Jalen Ramsey and company are clicking on all cylinders and there's nothing to suggest Sunday won't be more of the same.

Cornerback Jalen Ramsey injured his hand Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Analysis: Ramsey is still officially listed as questionable, but the second-year player had already indicated that he would not be playing this week. He would represent a significant loss for the Jaguars as he is likely to see a lot of Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald, but it's a blow to the defense that likely wouldn't hurt their fantasy potential too much. The Jags lead the league with 14.1 points per game allowed and a whopping 40 sacks, and their front seven has an appealing matchup against Cardinals QB…read more

The Jaguars continue to lead the NFL with 35 sacks on the season.

Analysis: The Jacksonville defense continues to perform week after week, and have given up only 24 points over the last three games. The Jags are also second in the NFL with 18 takeaways, and now have a matchup with the winless Browns. Cleveland has the second-worst offense in the league averaging 15.9 points and lead the league in turnovers with 23, including a whopping 18 interceptions. Overall this a matchup that should have fantasy owners salivating, although the Jaguars defense has been good enough…read more
