The Jacksonville Jaguars are at home this weekend watching the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots face off for the crown of best in the NFL. The Jaguars haven’t even sniffed the postseason in almost a decade so hoping for them to make it all the way to the Super Bowl next year feels a bit greedy.
For them to ascend to the playoffs at all, they need Blake Bortles to become what several thought he would be before his disastrous 2016 season. The Jaguars braintrust clearly thinks this is a possibility given the course of action they’ve taken to keep most of his support and coaching staff intact.
