[1:00 PM] Broncos @ Jaguars

Who will WIN this matchup?

Denver Broncos (7-4)

@ Jacksonville Jaguars (2-9)

 

• The line for this game is Denver by 3.5 points.

• After enjoying his best statistical performance of his young career last week, Trevor Siemian has been ruled out for Sunday as the Denver Broncos visit the skidding Jacksonville Jaguars. Siemian threw for a personal-best 368 yards and three touchdowns in a 30-27 loss to Kansas City, but sustained a foot injury on the first possession of overtime that has prevented him from practicing on Wednesday and Thursday. Paxton Lynch will start for Denver.

• After picking up Super Bowl MVP honors in February, Von Miller could add another prestigious title should he continue on his impressive path: NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Miller recorded a career high-tying three of his league-best 12.5 sacks versus the Chiefs and is inching closer to his personal best of 18.5 (2012). Rookie running back Devontae Booker has proven to be a workhorse over the last two weeks, recording 24 carries in each contest while totaling 155 yards. He’ll look to exploit a Jaguars’ defense that is being gouged for 116 yards on the ground.

• Defensive tackle Malik Jackson made no bones about looking forward to his Rocky Mountain reunion. Jackson recorded two sacks last week versus the Bills and his 4.5 on the season are just 1.5 shy of the career high he set in 2013.

• Jacksonville’s T.J. Yeldon (ankle) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday while fellow RB Chris Ivory (hamstring) missed his second straight session.

• Denver WR Emmanuel Sanders recorded 162 receiving yards last week, nearly eclipsing the total of his previous three games (169).

• The Jaguars have an NFL-worst minus-15 in turnover differential this season.
