The Jacksonville Jaguars will be traveling to Meadowlands Stadium to meet up the New York Jets in week three. Coach Jack Del Rio will need to strengthen his offensive line if he wants to come home with a victory.

New York Jets' quarterback Chad Pennington had a much improved game against the Miami Dolphins this week, throwing two touchdown passes. The Jets' defense also stepped it up and played strong, holding Miami to seven points.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Byron Leftwich displayed a great deal of heart, as he got sacked 6 times, and hit several more times. He hung tough, setting his team up to force an overtime with only seconds left in the game. He threw a 22 yard pass to the in zone, but it was batted down, clinching the game for the Indianapolis Colts'.

Both the Jacksonville Jaguars and the New York Jets have strong defensive players. This match-up could make for a very interesting game. They key factor to winning this game for the Jaguars will be their offensive line. If Byron Leftwich is given the time he needs to make completions, I think they will walk away the victors.
