The last time these teams met was in 2015. Jacksonville won this game by a score of 23-20. Over the last 10 meetings Miami has won 8 of the last 10 meetings.
Jacksonville Jaguars
It is hard to believe the Jaguars were in the AFC Championship last year, and now sit as one of the worst teams in the entire NFL. They are currently on a two game losing streak after losing to the Washington Redskins this past weekend.
The biggest problem for the Jaguars is their inconsistent offense. They average 16.1 points per game, which ranks 30th in the league. Part of the reason for their offensive struggles falls on the injuries they have suffered. Leonard Fournette has been sidelined for the majority of the season, and even when he was playing, he did not seem as effective this year. Their other problems have to do with their inconsistent quarterback play. Blake Bortles has not played well this year, which is why he was benched when the offensive coordinator was fired. Look for the Jaguars to try an establish the run game against Miami in hopes that they can avoid losing three straight.

Miami Dolphins
After a crazy win against the Patriots in week 14, the Dolphins fell apart in their 41-17 blowout loss to the Vikings this past weekend. They are now on the outside looking in and will need a lot of help to clinch a playoff spot.
Miami is another team that has had a lot of offensive struggles. They average 21.1 points per game, which is 23rd in the NFL. Their total yards sit at 302.1 yards per game which is 29th. The Dolphins have also dealt with several injuries this season, including quarterback, Ryan Tannehill and running back, Frank Gore. Despite these injuries, the Dolphins have still been inconsistent all season and will need someone to step up if they are going to beat the Jaguars.
