The loss of four playmakers in the Jaguars offense is a huge loss for a team that must find way to score 20-points to win. Marqise Lee is not familiar name at least in the NFL. Lee is playing great the past few weeks, but now he will square off against Chris Harris or Aqib Talib. Both cornerbacks Harris and Talib should respond, but the player needing a bounce back is Bradley Roby.

Von Miller is turning into a leader in the Denver Broncos defense. A change to what happened in year’s past due to his off-the-field issues. After his comments this week about the Kansas City Chiefs game, the defense will play with more fire. Since there will be no Julius Thomas for the Jaguars offense, Brandon Marshall and Todd Davis now have eyes set on Mercedes Lewis. Lewis is no slouch at tight end, in case you are wondering.

A Jaguars’ running game also takes a hit in the loss of Chris Ivory. TJ Yeldon takes his place, but he does not appear to be the bell cow for the team. There should be a variety of looks and misdirection with the loss of Ivory to enhance the running game. A numerous amount of players missing for the Jaguars on offense, expect the Broncos “No Fly Zone” and “Orange Rush” to hold the Jaguars to under 230 yards offense.
