Week 7 of the NFL season is just around the corner and to better prepare you for the upcoming betting action we have put together a detailed preview between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Kansas City Chiefs.
The Jaguars are most recently coming off of a 30-3 loss at the hands of the Tennessee Titans, in a game where both David Garrard (starting QB) and Trent Edwards (backup QB) were injured and are doubtful to start in Week 7.
Todd Bouman, the Jaguard 3rd string QB will likely be the starter. The Jaguars are currently 3-3 this season.
The Kansas City Chiefs go into Week 7 action with a record of 3-2, already having their bye week. Matt Cassel has played respectable in five games during the NFL 2010 season as the former New England Patriot has solidified his starting position at quarterback for the Chiefs.

One of the main keys to this game will the the defense of the Jacksonville Jaguars who have played dismal as of late. The Jaguars defense has given up 27.8 points against per game (31st) and have given up 374.8 total yards against (27th).
Jacksonville’s pass defense ranks 28th in total yards allowed (263.7) while they sit in 19th against the rush (111.2 yards).
The Jaguars quarterback situation is the least of their worries with their defense playing the way it has so far.
2010 Chiefs Offense

Game Prediction: The Chiefs #1 ranked running game is going to be too much for the Jaguars to handle in this one. Add on the Jaguars’ injuries to their offense and the outlook is bleak for Jacksonville in this AFC match-up.
Matt Cassel is showing everyone that he deserves to be a starting quarterback in the NFL after four years of backing up Tom Brady in New England.
