3.Turnovers, Turnovers, Turnovers.

I expect the New England Patriots defense to be all over Blake Bortles on Sunday. He was shaky in his first start of the season and I think the Patriots possess a much better defense than the New York Giants, who the Jaguars went up against in Week 1.

I believe that Bortles will throw 3 interceptions. I think Stephon Gilmore will get his second interception of the season and shut down his opponent, and I think we see veteran Devin McCourty get his first pick of the season.

Sunday is an important game because with a win the Patriots can prove that they are the top dog in the East. The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Jaguars seemed to be the Patriots only competition in the AFC. Now it looks like it is just the Jaguars and maybe the Kansas City Chiefs who have a star in Patrick Mahomes.

Hopefully the Patriots come up victorious once again and shut up the trash talking Jacksonville Jaguars.
