like never before in his career Gardner Minshew Jersey Color Rush , Jacksonville coach Doug Marrone wants to get the Jaguars back to running.Dak Prescott, Jason Garrett and the Dallas Cowboys have the opposite issue heading into a Sunday matchup with familiar faces on both sidelines.Bortles has a chance to be just the fifth NFL quarterback with at least 375 yards passing in three straight games after establishing a career high in consecutive weeks. He also had a career-high four interceptions last week, which helped explain a 30-14 loss to undefeated Kansas City.There was something else that bothered Marrone against the Chiefs: a season-low 17 rushing attempts to go with Bortles’ personal high of 61 throws. The only other game this season with fewer than 20 carries? The other loss for Jacksonville (3-2), against Tennessee.“That’s not the way we want to play,” Marrone said. “I probably should have done a better job of that. I just felt like we were pressing and trying to make plays. I just think overall I have to do a better job of managing that.”Of course Womens Gardner Minshew Jersey , the Jaguars have some pretty good reasons to tilt toward the pass. Running back Leonard Fournette will be out for the fourth time in six games with a hamstring injury. Jacksonville is on its third left tackle in Josh Walker.The Jaguars signed two-time All-Pro running back Jamaal Charles this week and expect him to contribute behind T.J. Yeldon against the Cowboys (2-3).“I think we were pretty fortunate last year as far as staying healthy,” Bortles said. “This year we haven’t been quite as lucky. These next three weeks, not looking ahead or anything, but to get to the bye week are important with the amount of guys we have down.”The Cowboys aren’t looking for 375 yards passing from Prescott because they have the NFL rushing leader in Ezekiel Elliott. But inefficiency throwing is the biggest reason Dallas has a losing record and questions inside and outside the locker room about play-calling.The bright side for Dallas: another home game. The Cowboys are trying to win the first three at home for the first time at 9-year-old AT&T Stadium. The worst of the offensive issues have been on the road.“You just keep banging away,” Garrett said. “There’s a lot of good things we’re doing offensively. We have to continue to build on those. There’s plenty of things we’ve got to shore up and we’ll try to address those things as directly as we can.”Things to know about the first meeting between these teams since the Cowboys made their first regular-season trip to London four years ago:FAMILIAR FACESDallas receiver Allen Hurns Gardner Minshew Jacksonville Jaguars Jerseys , who questioned the play call on one of Prescott’s interceptions but said he wasn’t second-guessing offensive coordinator Scott Linehan, spent his first four years in Jacksonville before signing with the Cowboys in free agency this past offseason.Safety Barry Church, in his second year with the Jaguars, was a cornerstone for the Dallas defense the last four of his seven seasons with the Cowboys. Both will be facing their former team for the first time.“It’s just like playing against your brother,” said Hurns Jacksonville Jaguars Jerseys Stitched , who had his first touchdown with the Cowboys in last week’s overtime loss to Houston but has just eight catches. “You don’t want to lose. I don’t want to say this game is bigger than any other game, but for sure one I want to win.”SPEAKING OF FAMILIARCharles was a standout at Texas and won a national championship with the Longhorns as a freshman during the 2005 season. The former Chiefs star whose career has been marred by knee injuries lives near Houston.The 31-year-old had been unsigned after spending last season as a backup in Denver. His return will be his first visit to the home of the Cowboys, a week after he was in Dallas watching the Texas-Oklahoma rivalry.“I’m ready to get the dust off these cleats,” he said.DEFENSE FIRSTThe Jaguars rode their defense to the AFC championship game last season. The Cowboys are relying on that unit more than usual with the difficulties in the passing game and an offensive line unsettled because of the absence of four-time Pro Bowl center Travis Frederick, who is battling a nerve condition.Both teams are in the top five in scoring defense and bottom seven in scoring offense.“It’s going to be a battle among the defenses Cheap Gardner Minshew Jersey ,” Dallas defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford said. “That’s the way I’m looking at it.”___ By the end of the day, it may be easier to come up with a list of the players the Jaguars haven’t cut than the ones that have been dropped from the roster.The latest additions to the scroll are right tackle Jermey Parnell and long snapper Carson Tinker. The Jaguars announced those moves while also making it official that defensive tackle Malik Jackson, safety Tashaun Gipson and running back Carlos Hyde are on the discard pile.Parnell started 57 games for the Jaguars over the last four seasons. Tinker has missed a lot of time with injuries over the last two seasons and the Jaguars re-signed his replacement Matt Overton this week.Parnell was due $6 million in 2019 and the Jaguars will get all of that cap space back along with the $860,000 that Tinker was set to make. The team also created $23 million-plus with their other moves.That space is expected to go toward a move for quarterback Nick Foles in free agency. Once that happens, the Jags could release Blake Bortles Mens Gardner Minshew Jersey , although they’d only clear $4.5 million of his $21 million cap hit with that move.
