The Jaguars' self-inflicted wounds on defense were numerous Sunday. Now, they're working to clean things up in a hurry before next week's clash with the suddenly-surging Giants.
The game-winning play for the Colts capsulized the Jags’ frustrations: needing a stop on third-and-13 to force Chase McLaughlin to attempt a field goal of 50 yards. Colts receiver Alec Pierce responded to Jaguars cornerback Shaquille Griffin playing him as if he was going to run a pattern at the first-down marker, and then took off for the end zone just as tackle DaVon Hamilton was bearing down on Ryan.
It was Ryan’s 58th attempt and 42nd completion of the game, a record number of passes for a Jaguars’ opposing quarterback in team history, and one off the record for most completions ."We couldn't get them off the field," Jaguars coachRyan threw for 389 yards, cracking the top 10 against the Jags by an opposing quarterback.
The Jags also had their first game of the season with no turnovers and no sacks. The latter was mainly because the Colts’ game plan was to get the ball out of Ryan’s hands as soon as possible, and the Colts all but abandoned the run with the loss of Jonathan Taylor to an ankle injury. But Ryan is a veteran who not only has a knack of getting rid of the ball under pressure but in the vicinity of a receiver to go get it.
”I definitely expect to see tempo at some point in the game going forward,” he said. “We’ll have a game plan. For it. Whether I have a certain set of calls or in different formations or different personnel … I’m sure we’ll be able to rattle off some pressures. Just be on the same page and get that communication out quickly.”Jaguars wide receiver/returner Jamal Agnew will be day-to-day this week after suffering what Pederson called a “strain” of his knee.
