Leftwich is getting ? healthier?; with a slim chance of returning to play versus Pats in possible playoff matchup. Meanwhile Garrard is getting valuable gametime experience and getting better too.
Without putting too much weight on their underperformance last week; are the Jags truly such a weak playoff team? They were within a couple of plays of beating Colts in both their games even with Garrard playing in the 2nd. If Leftwich comes back; are they even more dangerous?
I think a lot of us on the board have taken it for granted Pats will walk over the Jags; and I am thinking it will be a more typical Pats close run game where the pats either pull away in the 4th quarter or dominant throughout the game; but not on the scoreboard. ( still thinking Pats win; but think I will be on edge of my seat the whole game.)
