START ‘EM

52. . D/ST. Jaguars. Jacksonville D/ST. 3. player

The other Start ‘Em for this brutal Thursday night game is the defense on the other side of the field. The Jaguars were nicknamed “Sack-sonville” last year due to their ability to get after the quarterback.

While the defense hasn’t been as much of a talking point this season (at least not for positive reasons), this is a good week to play them. Marcus Mariota isn’t a great passer and had he not been playing against the Jets last weekend, some of those bad passes would have been exposed more.

With Jalen Ramsey and the rest of the Jacksonville D starting to bring the heat defensively, expect the Jags defenders to make some plays on Thursday. This is as good a week as any to throw the Jags into your starting lineup.
