When: 1:00 p.m. Sunday, CBS
SB Nation Broncos: Mile High Report
SB Nation Jaguars: Big Cat Country
Breakdown: The story line in this game will be Tim Tebow returning home to Florida but he won't have much of a role against the Jaguars. Instead it will be the Broncos trying to balance their shaky running game with Kyle Orton's game management abilities. If the Broncos can build a lead, it will be hard for the Jaguars to come back.
Player to Watch: Maurice Jones-Drew is among the best running backs in the NFL. With the Jaguars mediocre quarterback situation, they'll be leaning on Jones-Drew to take them to victory. The Broncos run defense will have a big test against Jones-Drew.
Line: Jaguars are 3.5 point favorites.
Prediction:Games in the NFL usually come down to quarterbacks and in this matchup we have to go with Kyle Orton, who has had a solid offseason throwing the ball. Look for the Broncos to win by a field goal.
