Jacksonville, Oct 24 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The Baltimore Ravens are the hot favorites going into the ESPN Monday Night Football game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The fortunes of the two teams have been mixed this season.

While the Ravens are high flying this season having only lost a game, the Jaguars are not having such a great season. The team has lost 5 out of the 6 games that they have played in the season. The team’s head coach Jack Del Rio will count himself lucky to still be holding onto his job.

Before the season started, he was given what appears to be his well defined target. The bosses reportedly told Del Rio that he has to win or be fired. None has happened yet: he is not winning and he has not been fired.

The Ravens might win this game comfortably but that does not change the fact that the club will need to work on their ageing team. The earlier the franchise starts looking for replacements for players like Joe Flacco, Ray Rice and Ricky Williams the better it will be for the team. Though these players have played some great football in the past, it is obvious this season that age is fast catching up on them.
