Broncos vs. Jaguars: Five keys

No. 1: Careful, careful. OK, the standings say the Jaguars are 2-3, but a closer look says they are trouble if the Broncos don't arrive with some intent. Denver will be the fourth division leader the Jaguars have played this season. And the Jaguars' three losses, all by seven points or fewer, have come to teams that are a combined 13-2.
No. 2: Hemmed in. Jaguars quarterback David Garrard is the most effective on the move, and his runs out of the pocket basically fueled the team's playoff win in Pittsburgh in January. The Broncos have to keep him in the middle of the field.
No. 3: Adjust. The Broncos haven't seen the Jaguars play live under new defensive coordinator Gregg Williams. Williams' units traditionally have been aggressive, but he'll likely have a wrinkle or two the Broncos didn't see on the video.
No. 4: Stand tall. Last season, the Jaguars' first scoring drive against the Broncos went 18 plays and used up more than 11 minutes on the game clock. The game wasn't the same after that. The Broncos have to avoid letting the Jaguars control the line of scrimmage.
No. 5: Power up. The Jaguars try to play it tough and keep it close. The Broncos have to match that, especially in their own run game, if they are going to move to 5-1.
