NFL: Jacksonville Jaguars will be in the playoffs in 2014 if…

But: If the team’s newest offensive weapons don’t off the Jacksonville defense a little support and relief, it figures to be yet another extremely long year for this franchise.

The addition of Gerhart could mean 15-20 carries per game for the former Minnesota Vikings understudy to Adrian Peterson. It would make Henne and the passing game that much more effective, as well as having a ground attack that can kill a little clock.

In 2011, running back Maurice Jones-Drew led the league with 1,606 yards rushing. Over the last two seasons, with the former Pro Bowl running back missing the final 10 games (2012) or still trying to bounce back from injury (2013), the Jaguars totaled 1,369 and 1,260 yards on the ground, respectively, as a team. In terms of a little perspective, those are the two lowest single-season team totals in the brief 19-year history of the Jaguars on the field.
