Broncos<\/a> overtaking the Chiefs to win the AFC East, but if they do, they will have to win this Christmas Day game.<\/p>\nSeptember (2-2): Win vs. Carolina, loss at Cincinnati, win vs. Houston, loss at San Francisco. The Jaguars must win their two September home games to avoid digging themselves into a here-we-go-again hole.<\/p>\n
October (1-2): Loss vs. Kansas City, win vs. Seattle, loss vs. Rams in London. The Chiefs on Monday night should be a fun atmosphere. The Seahawks game is a biggie because it precedes a trip overseas and the bye week.<\/p>\n
November (2-3): Win at Las Vegas, loss at Houston, loss vs. Chargers, loss at Arizona, win at Tennessee. Four road games is a tough assignment, but only Houston made the playoffs last year. Just don\u2019t go 1-4, guys.<\/p>\n
December (2-2): Win vs. Indianapolis, win vs. Jets, loss at Denver, loss at Indianapolis. The Jaguars will travel to Indianapolis after Christmas with a chance at the AFC South, but the Colts rally under a to-be-determined interim coach to win.<\/p>\n
January (1-0): Win vs. Tennessee. Houston wraps up the division, but the Jaguars finish on a positive note by beating the Titans.<\/p>\n
Final record: 8-9 (second in AFC South).<\/p>\n
From 4-13 to 8-9 would represent a significant improvement for the Jaguars\u2019 new administration and provide hope for 2026.<\/p>\n
