The Jacksonville Jaguars (5-8) have a major chance to continue staking a legitimate claim for the playoffs this weekend, and beating the Atlanta Falcons (6-7) would be a crucial victory in the race for the AFC South.
While the Indianapolis Colts play the Houston Texans, the Jaguars can keep up in the race with a win, but they will fall two games behind the victor of that battle with a loss. So this is another game where the Jaguars need to win to keep their playoff chances alive.
The Falcons have lost their previous six games, but they have proved they can play with any team and have plenty of ability on both sides of the ball.
