As the Jacksonville Jaguars prepare to face the New York Jets in Week 15, we sat down with MacGregor Wells of Gang Green Nation to learn more about the opposing side.

Question 1: Brady Cook was thrown into action last week due to injuries to Tyrod Taylor and Justin Fields. Who do you expect to be the starter at QB this week — and is it safe to assume the Jets’ 2026 starter is not on the current roster?

It’s not clear who will start for the Jets on Sunday. The Jets just added Asrian Gonzalez to the practice...

Has Cole Van-Lanen Earned the Left Tackle Role in Duval?

Has Cole Van-Lanen Earned the Left Tackle Role in Duval?

For the past few weeks, the Jacksonville Jaguars’ offensive line has been playing at a near-dominant level, culminating on Sunday with a zero-sack, no quarterback hits surrendered performance against the Indianapolis Colts. Local media and many within the fanbase have been clamoring for a new starting left tackle based on recent play by swing tackle Cole Van-Lanen. Van-Lanen finally stepped in for starting left tackle Walker Little during the team’s week 13 matchup against the Tennessee Titans after Little exited the game in the second quarter with concussion symptoms that would also keep him out of the team’s week 14...

Winners & Losers from Week 14: Jaguars Shine in the Rain Over the Colts

I think I speak for the entire city of Jacksonville when I say each and every one of us would watch 1,000 more games in the rain if what we saw Sunday would be the result.

Looking to take sole control of the AFC South and the team’s playoff destiny, the Jacksonville Jaguars decimated the visiting Colts 36-19. The score is not indicative of how lopsided the game was, but regardless, the win moved the Jags to 9-4 on the year and to 11-0 in their past meetings at home with the division rival Colts. “Happy” by Pharrell Williams was...

The most significant piece of news to come out of this game was the Daniel Jones injury. The Colts QB tore his Achilles and is done for the year. Riley Leonard replaced him and will get a shot at finishing the season as the Colts starting quarterback....
