#2:  Jacksonville Jaguars

Record:  0-2

How in the world can a young team that seems to have so much top tier talent on its roster continue to lose games like they have? At some point the ownership is going to have to look at the coaches. Gus Bradley should be doing better with this Jaguars team. The first week it was a series of blunder that cost them against Green Bay and in week two they were railroaded by a Chargers team missing two of their best offensive weapons.

Biggest Need:  Defense

It’s difficult to pinpoint where the problem is. The Jaguars have added talent at every level of their defense yet it continues to get pounded. Green Bay hung 27 points on them and then the Chargers delivered 38.  Maybe a change in the coaching staff might have the desired effect but until that happens the best thing for them to do is keep adding able bodies. Pass rush and pass coverage of course should take priority since that’s where they’re weakest.
