Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Carolina Panthers: Friday Fact or Fiction

After a roller coaster of an offseason, the Jacksonville Jaguars finally suit up for a real football game this Sunday as they host the Carolina Panthers at Everbank Field.

For the first time in at least 3 years, expectations are relatively high for a ball club that has finished with a top 3 pick in each of the last 3 drafts. Second year quarterback Blake Bortles looks primed to break out and lead an offense with a litany of young options available to move the ball.

The first opponent in the way of a possible playoff run features a big-time quarterback in Cam Newton.
