They return starter quarterback CJ Anderson, but they will have all new running backs. Anderson passed for 785 yards and rushed for another 1297 yards. Julio Cuevas OL will be a leader among the linemen. The Jaguars will struggle with low numbers and overall depth. But Coach Jeff Turner sees the strength of his team and believes that hard work will pay off. "They work hard as a team and are willing to sacrifice for the team," wrote Turner. "We always want to compete for a championship, but that will depend on the physical and mental toughness of our players and coaches."
