Can the Jacksonville Jaguars disrupt the Patriots pursuit of perfection tomorrow night? The answer is Yes and here's how. BE PHYSICAL! It's gonna be cold up there in Foxborough...real cold, with the projected temp. at kickoff set around 34 degrees and expected to feel like 28! Therefore, the Jag's must own the running game. We know Garrard, although efficient (18 TDs/ 3 Ints), is not going to out-produce Brady and the receiving tandem of Williams and Northcutt is not that of Moss/ Welker; so, it MUST be first time Pro-bowler Fred Taylor and 2nd-year man Maurice Jones-Drew who come up big. The two combined to be the league's 2nd most prolific rushing duo, averaging 123 yds/gm, behind the Vikings Chester Taylor and record breaking rookie Adrian Peterson. So, they CAN do it!
