Prediction

The Saints are a pass-first team all the way. Drew Brees is one of the NFL's most dynamic passers because of his accuracy and ability to quickly find open receivers.  In contrast, the Jaguars have struggled to get any type of passing game going. For the Jaguars to win, they'll have to have some success through the air. Is Blaine Gabbert capable of having a breakout game against a Saints defense that has been unable to defend the pass? That's really the key to this game. Unfortunately, if Gabbert is going to have to go toe-to-toe with Brees, it'll be a matchup he'll lose every time as a rookie. It's hard to fathom the Jaguars finding a way to slow down the Saints' offense or for Gabbert and company to put up enough points to match New Orleans. Saints win this one big, 37-14
