22. Jacksonville Jaguars

Just when it seemed like Gardner Minshew was going to help the Jacksonville Jaguars pull off another epic win, the team came up just short during Sunday’s loss to the Carolina Panthers.

No one needs to explain how fun Minshew has been to watch over the last couple of weeks when taking into consideration that all hope seemed lost after the Jaguars lost Nick Foles in Week 1, but the three fumbles against the Panthers shows reasons for concern.

One can only imagine how different things would have been for Jacksonville if the fumbles didn’t take place, but hopefully Minshew can use this as a learning experience to improve moving forward.

Also, Jacksonville’s defense certainly didn’t make things easier after the unit struggled the entire contest to keep Christian McCaffrey in check after the Panthers running back finished with over 200 yards from scrimmage to go along with three trips into the end zone.

So when taking all of these factors into consideration, it really shouldn’t come as a surprise to see Jacksonville come out on the losing end in this one.

And with the Jaguars scheduled to take on the red-hot New Orleans Saints in Week 6, one can only imagine how brutal of a loss this could be as well.
