I agree that Jax would rather play Tenn. Bossa and Ingram would be scary in the playoffs with Rivers dying to make a superbowl. Also why risk injury for a worse matchup?
But a couple of interesting things matchup wise I heard from Football Outsiders to potentially file away for a looming rematch. Tennesee has 4th lowest pressure rate in the league, meaning they can "slow down" the Jax pass rush. Also Delanie Walker is a main target of Mariotta so that helps to neutralize the power of the corner backs. Tennessee is also good at preventing long runs with an excellent talking secondary. So Jax will be forced to grind them down on the ground with short to moderate gains and Bortles will have to make some 3rd down conversions with his arm.
