Jaguars Losing Streak Hits 20 Games
The Jacksonville Jaguars extended their losing streak to 20 games after today’s defeat by the Tennessee Titans at TIAA Bank Field.
Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence hands off to RB James Robinson
The Titans jumped out to an early lead, as Jaguars’ QB Trevor Lawrence’s first completion of the game to TE Dan Arnold was fumbled and recovered by the Titans’ S Kevin Byard who scored a touchdown. The Jaguars followed on the next series with a 58 yard play by RB James Robinson which had the fans cheering. Robinson later pushed his way into the end zone for a one yard touchdown run. But former UCF Kicker, Matthew Wright, who was just called up to once again replace Josh Lambo, missed the extra point, leaving the Jaguars down 7-6. Lambo has struggled with an apparent lack of confidence, this season, leaving his future with the Jaguars in doubt.
Titans RB Derrick Henry runs for a touchdown to begin the 2nd quarter.
The Titans’ RB Derrick Henry began the second quarter with a one yard touchdown run, extending their lead to 14-6. The Jaguars’ next scoring drive culminated in Lawrence’s one yard touchdown pass to TE Jacob Hollister. K Matthew Wright redeemed himself with the extra point, bringing the score to 14-13. But the Titans followed up with a scoring drive that ended with a 14 yard QB Ryan Tannehill touchdown pass to TE MyCole Pruitt. The Jaguars’ K Matthew Wright attempted a 52 yard field goal, but the ball hit the crossbar and bounced forward. The Titans’ K Randy Bullock had better luck with his 34 yard field goal, putting the Titans up 24-13 heading into the half.
In the second half, fans were energized as Jaguars’ OLB K’Lavon Chaisson hit Titans’ QB Ryan Tannehill, resulting in what fans thought was a turnover. But the ruling on the field was that it was an incomplete pass. Coach Urban Meyer challenged the ruling, but upon further review, the call stood. That scoring drive ended with a nine yard Derrick Henry touchdown run, putting the Titans up 31-13, which was the score heading into the fourth quarter.
Trevor Lawrence thrilled the fans with a four yard touchdown run, bringing the score to 31-19, but Lawrence’s two point conversion pass attempt to WR Jamal Agnew was incomplete. Fans cheered as WR Laviska Shenault Jr. showed off some fancy footwork after a pass from Lawrence, resulting in a 58 yard gain. That series ended with another apparent Lawrence touchdown run, but upon review, officials ruled he was down just short of the goal line. RB Carlos Hyde was unable to reach the end zone on the next play, ending the drive. The Titans added another touchdown with a ten yard run by Derrick Henry, but Randy Bullock’s extra point attempt went wide right, leaving the score at 37-19 for the remainder of the game
QB Trevor Lawrence shakes hands with Coach Urban Meyer before the game
Questions still remain about the players’ respect for Coach Urban Meyer after a pair of embarrassing videos shot at a bar surfaced following the Jaguars’ loss to the Bengals. Meyer skipped the team’s flight back to Jacksonville, claiming he wanted to stay in Ohio to spend time with his grandkids. But he was seen with a young woman who was not his wife and has had to answer many questions about that situation. Jaguars Owner Shad Khan has voiced his continued support for Meyer, though many analysts believe that Meyer’s time with the team could be limited.
Trevor Lawrence finished with 273 yards and one touchdown. James Robinson was the leading rusher with 149 yards, while Dan Arnold led the receivers with 64 yards. Today’s attendance was 58,282.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Florida Sports Channel) – The Jacksonville Jaguars (3-6) ended their five game losing streak, beating the Las Vegas Raiders (2-6) by a score of 27-20 in front of their home team crowd. The Jaguars’ offense looked a little sluggish early on, perhaps because of the challenges of traveling back from London after their game against the Denver Broncos. The Jags have traditionally had their bye week right after their overseas game at Wembley Stadium, but this season, Jacksonville won’t get their bye until week eleven of this season. Fortunately, the team’s offense kicked in for the second half of the game and finished strong.
The Raiders were the first to score late in the first quarter with QB Derek Carr’s 25 yard touchdown pass to WR Davante Adams. K Daniel Carson added the extra point, putting the Raiders up 7-0 heading into the second quarter.
Daniel Carlson kicked a 38 yard field goal less than a minute into the quarter, extending the Raiders lead to 10-0. On the Raiders next drive, Derek Carr added a 38 yard touchdown pass to Davante Adams, followed by another Carlson extra point, bringing the score to 17-0. But the Jaguars followed with a drive led by RB Travis Etienne Jr., whose one yard touchdown run put the first points on the board for the Jaguars. K Riley Patterson’s extra point narrowed the Raiders lead to 17-7. A second 38 yard Carlson field goal extended the Raiders lead to 20-7. Patterson’s 44 yard field goal as time on the clock expired had the Jaguars down 20-10 at the half.
The Jaguars’ first drive of the second half ended with a seven yard touchdown pass from QB Trevor Lawrence to WR Christian Kirk, and a Riley Patterson extra point, making the score 20-17. Rain had some fans running for cover for part of the quarter, but the score remained 20-17 at the end of the third, and the sunny skies returned.
The Jaguars scored on the first play of the fourth quarter, as Travis Etienne Jr. ran five yards into the end zone, and Riley Patterson added an extra point. The Jaguars moved into the lead for the first time of the game, up 24-20. The quarter also featured a shirtless fan who ran downfield before he was finally tackled by security and escorted off the field by police. Riley Patterson missed a 41 yard field goal attempt late in the fourth quarter, as the ball bounced off the right goal post. But the Jags were able to stop the Raiders from scoring, and Patterson redeemed himself with a 48 yard field goal. The Jaguars defense succeeded in stopping the Raiders, including a sack of Derek Carr by DE Dawuane Smoot and an interception by LB Devin Lloyd, as the Jaguars won 27-20.

The last time the Raiders faced the Jaguars was the final game at Oakland Coliseum on Dec. 15, 2019. This was their first regular season matchup since the Raiders moved to Las Vegas in 2020. In their ten games against each other, the Jaguars record is now 6-4.
