All five predictors are picking the Jaguars to win this game. Here is why Dan Parrlikes Jacksonville:
"One thing that could work in the Jags’ favor is the Pats' ailing health. New England has taken hits to the league’s No. 1 scoring defense -- edge rusher Dre’Mont Jones and safety Craig Woodson missed Wednesday’s practice with shoulder issues -- and lost RG Mike Onwenu (ankle) to injured reserve. I’m leaning ever so slightly toward the home team in what figures to be a highly entertaining battle."
