The game's hard like that sometimes. But I think when you reload there's one tactic you might want to explore -- run around them! There will be Juggernauts aplenty later when you're stronger and the fight will go differently for you.

If you reload and keep trying the fight, you have to hope for a few lucky breaks (maybe you disable a few of the beasts (sleep? paralyze?) and cut them up while they're defense-impaired? But in my experience (especially in the parts of the game where you are using the roads), these fights go bad no matter what you try -- the timing just isn't right.
