The 2017 schedule is set up very well for the Jacksonville Jaguars to make a push for the playoffs but only if they can start strong. The opening four games for the Jaguars are absolutely critical, they face four opponents who had a combined record of 31-33 in 2016, with only two of the teams posting a winning record.

The Jaguars open the season on the road against the Houston Texans. The Texans should once again have one of the top defenses in the league, but the question remains the same in Houston, who will be the starting quarterback?
