Jacksonville Jaguars

A week after dismantling the Pittsburgh Steelers and forcing Ben Roethlisberger into 5 interceptions, the Jacksonville Jaguars return home to host the Los Angeles Rams.

While the Rams have been a great turnaround story with new head coach Sean McVay, Jared Goff faces one of his toughest tests yet against the Jaguars' top-ranked defense. Through five games, the Jags rank 1st in the league in sacks (20) and 2nd in quarterback hits (36), and have forced the most turnovers (15) in the league.

Goff has looked much better than he did in his rookie season, but he's still struggled when facing above-average defenses. Against both the Washington Redskins and the Seattle Seahawks -- both losses for the Rams -- Goff had at least 1 turnover and took multiple sacks.

This is projected to be a low-scoring game, with an over/under of 42.5, the 3rd-lowest on the slate -- but the Jaguars are a 2.5 point home favorite. Goff and the Rams have been a great story so far, but going on the road against one the league's best defenses is a tough task, making the Jags one of the best plays on the slate.
