Close

The inaugural Sunday of the 2022 NFL season is right around the corner, and one of the marquee games on the board is the Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Washington Commanders in DC. 

 

In this interconference matchup, I expect a very good game. The Commanders have the better team on paper, but the Jaguars are much improved from a year ago. Doug Pederson, the Jaguars head coach, knows Carson Wentz and Washington very well from his time in Philly.

Let’s dive into some key statistics and information about this matchup.
