Key Contributors Toward Jaguars Playoff Chances

The Jaguars' success hinges on Trevor Lawrence's impressive performance and his ability to stay healthy. After a good 2023 season, Lawrence took a major step back last season, enduring injuries and playing only 10 games. 

The offensive unit, featuring Travis Etienne, Brian Thomas Jr., and Travis Hunter, will be crucial to the Jags' success. Ultimately, the Jags will need better protection from the offensive line. 

The defense must bounce back, and Travis Hines-Allen must lead the charge on the defensive line. Additionally, the secondary must avoid making critical mistakes, especially in key matches against top receivers.

Where Can I Bet on the Jacksonville Jaguars to Make the Playoffs?

Florida sports fans got unexpected news on November 7 when Hard Rock Bet announced they would be re-launching their betting platform in what they're calling an "early access period" prior to fully rolling out at an unknown future date. Only those who previously had an account open with Hard Rock Bet or were loyalty members before November 6 can place bets currently, however. We may also see Hard Rock Bet removed once again as Flagler Associates have asked the Florida Supreme Court to step in and block the app from being used in the state until the legal battles are fully resolved.

So, for now, there is a limited group of people who can access and place bets with the Hard Rock Bet Florida app. You can also join a waitlist by enrolling in the Unity by Hard Rock loyalty program and earning 1+ Unity points. To earn points, you have to visit one of the six retail casino locations owned by the Seminole Tribe and play casino games.
