The Jacksonville Jaguars begin their regular season against the Houston Texans in the same state and at the same time as they played their final pre-season game.

They would also like to give the offense more chances to be on the field, as the Houston Texans do not look good on offense either.Key Player - Trevor LawrenceIt is finally Trevor Lawrence's time. The rookie and first-round pick has been named the starter and will be looking to carry on his final game of pre-season form into this game. Though the other games were shaky for him, Trevor Lawrence finally found his groove against the Dallas Cowboys, leading them on touchdown drives without any interceptions.Jacksonville Jaguars Predicted LineupQuarterback (2): Trevor Lawrence (rookie), C.J.

There is every chance that will happen given the general weakness of the roster on both sides of the ball. But in the very first game of the season, the players will be looking to prove the pundits wrong and build some momentum.Key Player - Tyrod TaylorDeshaun Watson wanted a trade. Instead, due to his alleged sexual assault charges, he has become a liability to the Texans. He has been dropped as the quarterback with Tyrod Taylor now the starter. He will be looking to prove the naysayers wrong and get off to a blazing start.Houston Texans Predicted LineupQuarterback (2): Tyrod Taylor, Davis MillsRunning Back (5): David Johnson, Rex Burkhead, Phillip Lindsay, Mark Ingram, Scottie PhillipsWide Receiver (5): Brandin Cooks, Chris Conley, Nico Collins, Anthony Miller, Andre RobertsTight End (3): Jordan Akins, Pharoah Brown, Brevin JordanOffensive Line (8): Laremy Tunsil, Tytus Howard, Max Scharping, Justin Britt, Charlie Heck, Geron Christian, Justin McCray, Marcus CannonDefensive Line (10): Whitney Mercilus, Maliek Collins, Vincent Taylor, Charles Omenihu, Jordan Jenkins, Roy Lopez, Jonathan Greenard, Demarcus Walker, Jacob Martin, Ross BlacklockLinebacker (6): Zach Cunningham, Christian Kirksey, Kamu Gruiger-Hill, Kevin Pierre-Louis, Neville Hewitt, Garret WallowCornerback (6): Bradley Roby, Terrance Mitchell, Vernon Hargreaves III, Desmond King, Tremon Smith, Tavierre ThomasSafety (5): Justin Reid, Lonnie Johnson Jr., A.J.

Expect to hear these words spoken in association with the Texans many times this season against various opponents. The Jaguars should win this game comfortably by multiple scores.
