The Jacksonville Jaguars (1-1) and New England Patriots (2-0) are both coming off close victories over their opponents last Sunday and winning this Week 3 matchup at the Gillette Stadium is key to keep the momentum going for either squad.
Jacksonville surprised the Miami Dolphins, 23-20, at the EverBank Field in Week 2 as quarterback Blake Bortles led his team to two touchdown passes and went 18-of-33 for 273 yards and a rating of 102.2 en route to the win, via Fansided.
Meanwhile, Tom Brady led the Patriots to a high-scoring 40-32 victory over Rex Ryan's Buffalo Bills with three touchdown passes and 466 yards, the most by any player against the Bills and the second-highest of his career, and a rating of 105.6, as per Heavy.
Hosting the Jaguars at home, Brady will surely be the top man again for Bill Belichick as he said that he was still not satisfied with his performance against Buffalo last week.
Prediction: Patriots win, 42-20
