Jacksonville Jaguars Performance Recap and Analysis
After nine games of the Jaguars’ NFL schedule, the team is 3-6 so far this season. Their record means they are currently in third place in the AFC South in the NFL standings.
Last weekend, the Jaguars won 27-20 against the Las Vegas Raiders. It was the team’s first win since September 25, the third week of the NFL season, when the Jaguars won against the Los Angeles Chargers 38-10.
So far this season, Jacksonville’s offense has averaged around 22 points per game, and 5.7 yards per play, which is currently 18th and 11th in those categories of NFL team stats respectively, and could affect Jacksonville Jaguars picks in this weekend’s game and the future.
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence has improved in 2022 as compared to last season. He has completed 64.3% of his passes as compared to 59.6% last season. In addition, he is throwing for 230.56 passing yards per game this season in contrast to 214.18 last season. However, interceptions remain an issue as Lawrence has already thrown six this season, which is tied for eighteenth in that category of NFL player stats.
Meanwhile, the Jaguars’ defense has played extremely well so far this season. Jacksonville allows only 19.8 points per game, which is the 10th best in that area so far this season in that category of NFL team stats.

Those yards have resulted in the most points per game in the league, 30.4, including three games this season where Kansas City has scored more than 40 points, which is important information when considering any Kansas City Chiefs prediction.
Patrick Mahomes has again been one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL in 2022. He has completed 66.2% of his passes for 2,605 passing yards, the most in the NFL so far this year. Mahomes has also thrown for the most touchdowns in the league, 21, so far this season.
