KC Chiefs vs. Jacksonville Jaguars: NFL Week 2 Preview and Predictions

The Kansas City Chiefs are still looking for their first win of the young NFL season, and they deal with a high job in handling the Jacksonville Jaguars when traveling. These 2 teams squared off versus each various other twice this past project-- once in the normal season and once in the playoffs-- with Kansas City coming away with the victory on both celebrations. Despite that, Doug Pederson's Jaguars group presented fairly a bit of fight and quarterback Trevor Lawrence also ascended to a new rate with some of his high-level peers around the league. A 9-8 Jacksonville team from in 2014 is already off to a 1-0 begin in 2023, setting the scene for among one of the most exciting competitions of the weekend.How will today's video game unfold?

The Jaguars have an opportunity to solidify themselves early in the race for the leading spots in the AFC and the Chiefs can begin their title defense 0-2, placing them in a horrible setting to start the year. Eventually, I think both groups leave this game resembling title competitors Chiefs Store, yet the Chiefs' pass-catchers locate redemption (with a great deal of help from the returning Travis Kelce) and the protection holds up simply well enough (with perhaps somewhat less help from the returning Chris Jones) for the Chiefs to win a limited video game by one possession.Prediction: Chiefs 31, Jaguars 24Jordan Foote: The straightforward method to make a prediction here is to state that it's incredibly difficult to see the Chiefs beginning their season 0-2. Getting two of the group's three ideal players back in the fold will most certainly assist versus a potent Jaguars group on the roadway. Trevor Lawrence and firm need to place up a serious fight in a rematch of 2 meetings from the 2022-23 campaign, however the very same story will certainly unfold in the trilogy. Anticipate Kansas City's violation to display a more reliable initiative and even if Steve Spagnuolo's defense doesn't replicate its success from the opener a week back, it should still do sufficient to aid protect the win. .
