The Jaguars held onto the football for an amazing 41:35 of this football game but it came down to a 51-yard FG by Josh Scobee with 4 seconds left to win this football game.  David Garrard just managed this football game as he completed 16 of 22 passes for 167 yards with a interception.  The running backs carried the Jaguars to the finish line in this game as Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew were both strong last Sunday.  Fred Taylor led the way for the Jaguars with 121 yards rushing on 26 carries (4.7 ypc).  Maurice Jones-Drew also had a very solid game with 107 yards rushing on 19 carries (5.6 ypc) and he also caught 4 passes for 59 yards (14.8 avg).  The Jaguars finished up with 236 yards rushing on 48 carries (4.9 ypc) and they also completed 16 of 22 passes for 167 yards.

The defense was shaky for the Jaguars in this game as the Colts rolled up 325 yards of total offense despite only having possession of the football for 18:25 of this game.  Safety Brian Williams (5 tackles, interception) and CB Rashean Mathis (3 tackles, 61-yard interception return for a TD) both made huge plays that helped the Jags prevail.  The Colts finished up with 114 yards rushing on 19 carries (6.0 ypc) and they also completed 15 of 29 passes for 211 yards.  This was a huge win for the Jaguars as they are now 1-2 on the season.
