| (Best E Casino) - Another week. Another barometer. And it's the same old story this time around for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Seemingly on the cusp of contender status in the AFC since the arrival of franchise quarterback Byron Leftwich from Marshall a few years back, the Jaguars head into this week's game with the rebuilding Tennessee Titans with yet another chance to prove they belong with the conference's elite. At just 6-3 in the Indianapolis Colts-led AFC South, the Jaguars might already be on the verge of " |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The Jacksonville Jaguars have one large obstacle - or perhaps it's a mental block - to overcome in their push for their first playoff berth since 1999. It's the Tennessee Titans. Since joining the NFL in 1995, the Jaguars have played the former Houston Oilers more than any other franchise in a rivalry that started in their inaugural game as AFC Central foes and survived the league's reorganization. It was the Titans who kept them from the Super Bowl in 2000 and have dominated this s |

Greg Jones ran for 106 yards and a touchdown against the Ravens in Taylor's absence. On the season, Taylor has rushed 139 times for 614 yards and two touchdowns.

With a brace protecting the base of his surgically repaired left thumb, Bennett said he felt good enough that he expects to play Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars (6-3) after missing the last three games for the Titans (2-7). ``I'm probably the only person in the NFL that was excited for the bye week to be over last week,'' Bennett said. ``I was like, `Man, let's get this thing over.

| (Best E Casino) - People are starting to hear the whispers in Baltimore that head coach Brian Billick's job could be in jeopardy. Those whispers no doubt got louder on Sunday, as the Ravens were embarrassed, 30-3, by the Jacksonville Jaguars at ALLTEL Stadium. "We just wore out," Billick said. "We couldn't hold up on what they were able to do against us offensively, defensively. I have to go back and try to find some answers for it." Quarterback Kyle Boller returned to Baltimore's starting lineup Sunday after bei |
