Obviously the biggest move the Jaguars made was swapping out Blake Bortles for Nick Foles.So the question initially becomes; How many wins is Nick Foles worth?The 2018 season was a massive disappointment for the Jaguars, namely on the offensive side of the ball. It was one of the worst offenses in the league and second to last in points per game with an average of 15.3. To be frank, you’re not going to win many games only scoring 15 points and to do so requires a near lights out performance by your defense. Asking your defense to do that every game, as we saw last season, isn’t sustainable.That’s not to say there weren’t some games where the Jaguars defense let them down, but by and large it was the lack of production on offense that did the 2018 Jaguars in, even with all the injuries.Could Foles have saved 2018?One of the biggest arguments during the 2018 season was about the quarterback position and how much it was helping/hurting the Jaguars. Often you’d hear people exclaim that no quarterback could have success for the Jaguars that season because of the lack of playmakers and the injuries to the offensive line. I wholeheartedly disagree with that and think even someone like Nick Foles could have won more games last season because he’s simply a much better quarterback overall than Blake Bortles or Cody Kessler.My evidence: The Jaguars nearly went 3-1 with Cody Kessler starting.The Jaguars lost six games in 2018 by six points or less, four of those by a field goal. If the Jaguars anemic offense was able to just score an average of five points more per game they probably win at least four of those games, kicking their record to 9-7. It still misses the playoffs, but that’s a hell of a lot better than 5-11.A big sink in the Jaguars offense last season was they just got absolutely nothing for the quarterback position, regardless of what was going on around them. Simply put, in a vacuum both Blake Bortles and Cody Kessler were awful anchors for the Jaguars offense in different ways. For Bortles, he couldn’t hit simple passes and didn’t take care of the football. For Kessler Womens Landry Jones Jersey , you lost any ability for explosive plays and you had to play the grinder game.But playing that grinder game kept the Jaguars close enough to win some games, but it also makes it so a simple mistake kills you. The Jaguars with Foles probably beat the Steelers, they probably beat Washington and they still beat the Dolphins. A simple upgrade to a consistently average quarterback, at worst, transforms that offense. It won’t be the Kansas City Chiefs, but maybe you’re the Baltimore Ravens or Cincinnati Bengals and averaging 23-24 points per game.Nick Foles doesn’t need to make the Jaguars offense a Top 5 offense in the NFL, they just need to average about 23-24 points a game as long as the defense stays as good as it has been the past two years and they should win a handful more games than they did in 2018, even with the lack of offensive playmakers they currently have.If Foles can do that, he will be well worth his contract. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville Jaguars might have lost their No. 1 receiver for the season.Marqise Lee, who led the team in receptions in 2017, injured his left knee in a 17-6 victory against Atlanta in the preseason Saturday night and could be out for the year.Lee was carted off the field in the first quarter after Falcons cornerback Damontae Kazee went helmet-first into his knee and then twisted his leg. Lee fumbled on the play, but it was overturned because Kazee was flagged for leading with his helmet.Coach Doug Marrone said “obviously it looked bad,” adding that Lee will have tests Sunday to determine the extent of the injury. Teammates sounded resigned to Lee being sidelined an extended period, maybe even the entire season.“That’s tough Donte Moncrief Jersey ,” Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles said. “You hate to see anytime, especially in the preseason, and to a guy like that who’s been through what he’s been through and plays with the passion that he does, and everything that he’s put into this team and getting ready for this season. … It’s tough to see.”Lee was clearly in pain as he got helped onto the cart. Teammates and coaches walked across the field to offer well-wishes as he left the field.It was the kind of preseason injury that leaves everyone on both sidelines shaking their heads.“At the end of the day, we’ve got to come together as a team, as a unit and pick up where he left off,” fellow receiver Dede Westbrook said.“Everybody’s got to step up,” Jaguars receiver Donte Moncrief added. “Everybody in the room’s got to be ready to go, from the young guys to me. He was one of the big roles in the offense.”Lee had 56 catches for 702 yards and three touchdowns last season. He signed a four-year, $34 million contract in March that included $16.5 million guaranteed.A second-round draft pick from USC in 2014, Lee has 171 catches for 2,166 yards and eight touchdowns. He missed games because of various injuries in three of his four seasons.If Lee misses time this fall, the Jaguars would rely on second-year pros Keelan Cole and Westbrook, one-year rental Moncrief and rookie DJ Chark.WINLESS FALCONSAtlanta managed 96 yards in the first half and 261 for the game. The Falcons have lost all three preseason games.Matt Ryan completed 5 of 12 passes for 57 yards. Tevin Coleman ran seven times for 38 yards, with 22 of those coming on one scamper.“When you’re going against a good defense http://www.thejaguarslockerroom.com/authentic-a.j.-bouye-jersey , that’s how the game is going to shake out,” Ryan said. “You’re going to have your opportunities at times to make plays. I don’t think we came away with all of them, but we certainly made some good ones as well.”The bright spots for Atlanta were two interceptions against Blake Bortles, who played into the third quarter and finished 17 of 23 for 204 yards. Bortles was picked once on a tipped ball and another on a pass that sailed wide of a receiver.ANTHEM PROTESTJaguars All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey and Pro Bowl linebacker Telvin Smith remained in the locker room during the national anthem. Smith has skipped the anthem in each of the team’s three preseason games. Ramsey was suspended for last week’s exhibition at Minnesota, not for anything related to the anthem.PRESEASON DEBUTFalcons placekicker Matt Bryant made his preseason debut after sitting out the first two games with an undisclosed injury. The 43-year-old Bryant drilled a 47-yard field goal to cap the opening drive and later added a 33-yarder.The Jaguars had two players make their preseason debut. 2017 All-Pro guard Andrew Norwell (calf) and defensive lineman Taven Bryan (abdomen), a first-round pick from Florida, missed the first two exhibitions. Bryan’s best play was batting down a pass in the closing minutes.SITTING OUTReceiver Marvin Hall, guard Ben Garland, cornerback Desmond Trufant, safety Ricardo Allen and linebacker Deion Jones sat out for Atlanta with minor injuries.The Jaguars were without six players: cornerback A.J. Bouye (illness), center Brandon Linder (knee), safety Ronnie Harrison (hamstring), linebacker Donald Payne (hip), defensive tackle Eli Ankou (knee) and defensive end Dawuane Smoot (foot).UP NEXTAtlanta hosts Miami to end the preseason Thursday.Jacksonville plays at Tampa Bay on Thursday.
