Friday News: Jaguars "Ready to Go…"

BRONCOS FINAL ANALYSIS

JACKSONVILLELiam Coen is a happy coach entering Week 2.

With the Jaguars set to face the Denver Broncos for an important early-season test Sunday, this week has been about execution and preparation. And so far, so good.

"I think they (Jaguars players) have handled the week thus far really well," Coen said Friday morning as the AFC South-leading Jaguars (1-0) prepared to play the Broncos (0-1) at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, Colo., Sunday at 4:05 p.m.

The Jaguars, 34-10 winners over the Cleveland Browns in Week 1, have won nine consecutive games dating to last season – and 10 of the last 11 – entering Sunday's matchup between 2025 division champions.

"I thought we had one of our better Wednesday practices that I've been around in a while," Coen said. "I thought they came out with the right mindset, the right energy and juice at practice. Thought [Thursday] was solid. I would like to see us come out and be a little bit cleaner in some ways, but I did think on Wednesday, especially in setting the tone for the week …

"I think they were eager, ready to go, knowing what's kind of at stake in a lot of ways, and knowing what the opportunity is in front of us."

The Jaguars' coaches and players focused this week on preparing for the Broncos and a tough atmosphere at one of the NFL's most-raucous, loudest venues. That has meant tweaks to standard routines and practice habits, particularly for offensive players.

"Every play, you're not going to hear the full [play call],'' Coen said. "It's just not probably possible. You have to be able to know the whole thing so well that maybe you only pick up bits and pieces, but you can go and execute. You know what the play is called, and you can go and do that.

"So appreciative of the guys taking some of that intentionality into the walkthrough settings into practice when we've had the music blaring. Hopefully, it does help."

NOTABLE
