The Jacksonville Jaguars open the season on the road at AFC South division rival the Indianapolis Colts Sunday
JACKSONVILLE, FL - AUGUST 26: Trevor Lawrence #16 of the Jacksonville Jaguars throws a pass against the Miami Dolphins during warm ups at EverBank Stadium on Saturday, August 26, 2023, in Jacksonville, Florida. “We’re on the road, week one, division opponent, in the dome,” Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said. “It’s going to be a great atmosphere.”“I was pleased. They met my expectations,” Pederson said. “The team is in a good place. They had a really good training camp.
Last season, the AFC division rivals split the series with each team winning in their home stadium. The last time the Jags opened the season against the Colts was in 2020 with a 27-20 home win. “It’s the offensive side that might be a little different,” Pederson said. “That might look a little different obviously a young ascending quarterback, but I think you can prepare just by going back and understanding the history of their coaches and where they’ve been and who they’ve coached.”“These are big, physical, strong quarterbacks that can also throw the football and they’re athletic,” Pederson said. “He can break arm tackles and then he can run for 15, 20, 30 yards.
“We understand it is week one and emotions are going to run high, but I don’t put a lot of emphasis on that,” Pederson said. “I try to keep these guys just in the moment.”
