The Jags are going to win, precisely because Garrard knows how to manage a game. Last game, his 2 interceptions was an anomaly, and he ended up bringing the Jaguars back to victory. He threw what, like 3 interceptions the whole year. He is smart, and expect him to scramble and pick up some yardage as well, because he won't be trying to force the issue.
The reason the Patriots won the last few games is because the the opposing team, especially the QBs didn't know how to manage the game, and forced inerrant throws. When the QB took what the Patriots defense was giving them, they systematically drove down the field and scored. Fred Taylor is healthy as well, so their running back combination will eventually wear on the Patriots. The problem in the early seasons is teams felt as though they needed to attack on offense to match the Patriots scroing. That was a mistake, because the up-tempo suits their style. Teams started being more patient and they were effective.
If the Jags can slow the game down, and not turn the ball over they will win... Book it...
