This Saturday the Wild Card Round of the playoffs of the NFL in 2023 and in the primetime duel the Jacksonville Jaguars y Los Angeles Chargers. It will be the postseason debut of two of the most promising quarterbacks in the league: Trevor Lawrence and Justin Herbert.
Day: Saturday January 14.
Hour: 8:15 pm (USA Eastern Time).
Place: TIAA Bank Field, Jacksonville.
TV/Live Stream: NBC, NFL Game Pass, fuboTV.
Team record: Chargers 10-7 / Jaguars 9-8.
In the Chargers there are only doubts regarding the presence of one player and it is receiver Mike Williams, who did not practice during the week due to back problems. His official status is questionable, but it seems quite likely that he will play on a limited basis.
In the Jaguars the total availability of its squad is expected. Among those who practiced differentially as a precaution were quarterback Trevor Lawrence, receiver Jamal Agnew and guard Brandon Scherff.
This meeting projects to be quite even, since beyond the fact that the Chargers finished with the best record, the Jaguars will act as locals thanks to their divisional championship. In the duel between the young stars Justin Herbert and Trevor Lawrence, the locals will end up prevailing and will be one of the surprises of the postseason. ESPN’s matchup predictor suggests Jacksonville has a 62% chance of winning.
