The good from the Jaguars 2026 NFL schedule
Opportunity to bank some wins in the second half of the season? From Week 10 through 12, the Jaguars play the Titans twice, along with the Giants. To close out the season, the Jaguars face Dallas, Washington, and Indianapolis -- all three of whom missed the playoffs a year ago. There are always teams that surprise each season, but perhaps the Jaguars have the chance to stack some wins later in the year.
The bad from the Jaguars 2026 NFL schedule
Division game in London: One of the Jaguars' London opponents is the Texans. Although Jacksonville is the designated home team, they do not get the benefit of playing this game at EverBank Stadium. The second matchup of the season between these two will be played in Houston. If the Texans win in Week 6, that could create an early hole for the Jaguars to dig out of.
Jaguars at a rest disadvantage: Compared to their opponents, the Jaguars will be at a three-day rest disadvantage this season. This ranks 22nd in the NFL. So what is a rest advantage? For example, the Jaguars have their bye in Week 7, while the Colts do not. So when the two teams meet in Week 8, the Jaguars will have a seven-day rest advantage. However, even with that jump on the Colts, overall, Jacksonville is in the rest-negative on the season.
The ugly from the Jaguars 2026 NFL schedule
A lot of road games down the stretch: Of the Jaguars' final four games of the regular season, three of them will be away from EverBank Stadium, including in Week 18 against Indianapolis. From Weeks 9-18, the Jaguars are on the road for seven of those games.
