The Jacksonville Jaguars have done it. What a night and what a fantastic win for a team that failed to even qualify for the playoffs last season. With a 3-14 record last time around, some serious questions were raised against the team from Jacksonville.

However, they have been able to successfully turn things around this time. On Saturday, Trevor Lawrence’s team took on Justin Herbert’s Chargers and a riveting encounter was expected.
It would be fair to say that the fans got what they were expecting as it turned out to be an absolute humdinger. The Chargers started off magnificently and were able to gain a whopping 17 point lead in the first quarter itself.
Things weren’t looking good for the Jaguars at halftime as they were 7-27 down. However, they still managed to script one of the biggest playoff comebacks of all time. The contest ended 31-30 in favor of Jacksonville and among all the experts, NFL Insider Nick Wright was the happiest as he had predicted before the game that Lawrence will make like tough for the Chargers.
Stating that in a decorated college football career, Lawrence never lost a Saturday game and the fact that the Jaguars had defeated the Chargers earlier this season, Wright was sure that the Jaguars well move on to the next round.
Nick Wright backs Teddy Bridgewater to make things tough for the Bills
While that prediction turned out to be true, his next one is raising quite a few eyebrows. Josh Allen’s Buffalo Bills will take on the Tua-less Dolphins and while many think that the team from Miami stands no chance in front of the mighty Bills, Nick has a different point of view on this.
In a recent episode of “What’s Wright? With Nick Wright,” the NFL Insider claimed that in case Teddy Bridgewater starts, the Dolphins have a chance of giving tough competition to the Bills. He added that on both the occasions when the Bills took on the Dolphins this season, the team from Miami was able to put up a strong fight.
He went on to add that in the recent Patriots vs Bills game, Mac Jones was supremely impressive and Bridgewater is better than Jones which means that the Bills’ defense might struggle under pressure.
However, Nick also stated that he isn’t sure that the Dolphins will defeat the Bills or not, but if Bridgewater starts, they do stand a chance to script something incredible.
