In the first game of a Week 3 “Monday Night Football” doubleheader, the 2-0 Buffalo Bills will play host to the 0-2 Jacksonville Jaguars. Despite an offseason of change, the Bills are again looking like one of the top contenders to the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs’ throne in the AFC, while the Jags do not yet appear to have made many strides after their disappointing end to the 2023 campaign.
Josh Allen and Co. are rolling offensively, while Sean McDermott’s remade defense has stifled a pair of strong attacks in each of the first two weeks.

Jacksonville’s receivers have dropped four passes already, while Lawrence has been off target on 13 of 51 attempts (27.1%, the highest mark of his career). Ostensible top passing-game target Christian Kirk has two catches for 29 yards. Nothing is working well, perhaps with the exception of the occasional, “well, Brian…
