The Jacksonville Jaguars sustained arguably their most heartbreaking loss since the 2017 AFC Championship matchup as an Evan McPherson walk-off field-goal gave them their 19th consecutive loss last Thursday against Cincinnati. As a result, they moved to 0-4 and are now one of two winless teams in the NFL.
However, there certainly were some positives to take away from the loss (yes, I know that’s getting repetitive). The offense had their best showing of the season and gave the national media a show. Ultimately, they finished the game with 341 yards and displayed the balance fans were hoping for with 24 passing attempts and 30 rushing attempts. Additionally, the unit didn’t have a penalty the whole game (Ross Matiscik’s came on special teams), which displayed great discipline on their part.
