Jacksonville Jaguars 3, San Francisco 49ers 20

The Jacksonville Jaguars (6-5) had their three game winning streak snapped Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers (5-6).  The offense didn’t play terrible, but they failed to find the endzone and turned the ball over twice.  David Garrard put up some pretty decent passing numbers, 307 yards on 25/36 passes, but he couldn’t put any points on the board and had the two big fumble losses.  Maurice Jones-Drew didn’t play terrible either, rushing for 75 yards on 15 carries, but he just could not get passed that goal line.  Three points is never enough from your offense, and the Jags are going to need their offense to step it up.

The Jaguars defense gave a strong effort, but with no support from the offense they were going to need to get some points themselves and it didn’t happen.  They were not able to force any turnovers and they let the inconsistent Alex Smith throw for 2 touchdowns and 232 yards on 27/41 passes.  They did a great job keeping Niners’ running back Frank Gore in check, holding him to 33 yards on 16 carries.  It just wasn’t enough though as the Jags’ offense was shut down and they lost the turnover battle.

The Jacksonville Jaguars (6-4) needed a late game winning drive, led by David Garrard to beat the Buffalo Bills (3-7) on Sunday.  Garrard had a solid game for the Jags, throwing for 215 yards and a touchdown on 21/3o passes.  He was picked off once, but Garrard hit Mike Sims-Walker for a 3-yard touchdown pass with only 56 seconds left in the game.  Maurice Jones Drew got the running game going with 66 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries, and the Jags had 102 rushing yards as a team.

The Jaguars defense did a great job getting some turnovers, picking quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick twice and recovering a fumble.  They did not do a good job covering Terrell Owens though.  Owens, who has been very quiet all season, put up some huge numbers on the Jags.  He caught nine balls for 197 yards, including a 98 yard touchdown reception in the third quarter.  The Jags held Fred Jackson to only 35 yards on 9 carries and the defense did enough to let the offense get the exciting comeback win.

The Jaguars got a huge road win earlier today in the Meadowlands as it was sealed by a 21-yard field goal by Josh Scobee as time expired.  David Garrard was solid today completing 16 of 26 passes for 221 yards with 1 TD pass and 0 INTs.  He also carried the ball 6 times for 11 yards (1.8 ypc) with a TD run.  Maurice Jones-Drew had another outstanding game as usual with 123 yards rushing on 24 carries (5.1 ypc) with 1 TD run.  He also caught 2 passes for 22 yards (11.0 avg) today.  TE Mercedes Lewis (2 rec, 58 yards) and WR Mike Sims-Walker (3 rec, 49 yards, TD) led the way in the passing game for the Jags today.  The Jaguars finished up with 347 total yards (139 rushing, 208 passing) in this game.

Safety Sean Considine (9 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss) and CB Rashean Mathis (4 tackles, 2 passes defensed and a interception) led the way for the Jags’ D today.  The Jets finished up with 322 total yards on offense (110 rushing, 212 passing) in this game.  The Jaguars are now back in the playoff hunt with a 5-4 record on the year.

The Jaguars were ball hogs in this game as they had possession of the ball for 36:13.  David Garrard completed 18 of 27 passes for 264 yards with 1 TD pass and 0 INTs.  He also carried the ball 9 times for 29 yards (3.2 ypc) today.  Maurice Jones-Drew was very busy in this game for the Jags as he carried the ball 29 times for 97 yards (3.3 ypc) with a TD run.  He also caught 3 passes for 37 yards (12.3 avg) in this game.  Rookie RB Rashad Jennings had his best game of the year for the Jags today as he carried the ball 2 times for 29 yards (14.5 ypc) with a TD run and he also caught 1 pass for 9 yards.  WR Mike Sims-Walker had another huge game for the Jags today with 6 catches for 147 yards (24.5 avg) with a TD grab.  Torry Holt pitched in with 4 catches for 37 yards (9.3 avg) but he lost a fumble.  The Jaguars finished up with 426 total yards on offense (173 rushing, 253 passing) in this game.

The defense played pretty well for the Jags in this game until 4th quarter.  Linebacker Daryl Smith led the way for the Jaguars in this game with 8 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, 1.5 sacks and 2 QB hits.  The Chiefs finished up with 301 total yards on offense in this game (60 rushing, 241 passing).  The Jaguars are now 4-4 on the year.

Jacksonville Jaguars 13, Tennessee Titans 30

The Jacksonville Jaguars (3-4) became the first team to lose to the Tennessee Titans (1-6) this season.  It was not a good game for the Titans defense as they let Titans’ RB Chris Johnson run all over them.  Johnson had 228 yards on 24 carries and two touchdowns.  He had a 52-yard touchdown run in the 3rd quarter and a 89 yard touchdown run in the 4th quarter to seal the deal for the Titans.  Vince Young made his first start of the season for the Titans, and the Jaguars were not able to force him into any mistakes as Young did a good job managing the game.  Justin Durant was the only one who showed up for the Jaguars’ defense, getting 12 tackles.

The Jaguars had a great game on the ground too, but it wasn’t enough for them.  Maurice Jones Drew had 177 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries!  I’m no genius, but you would think that the Jaguars would feed Jones-Drew the ball more than eight times when he is getting huge runs.  He had an 80 yard touchdown run near the end of the first half, and followed that up with a 79-yard touchdown run early in the second half.  David Garrard had a bad game, throwing two interceptions and getting 139 yards on 14/27 passes.
