The bad: Turnovers aplenty
The Jaguars absoutely did everything possible to not take care of the ball on Sunday. The Jaguars committed four total turnovers in the game, three of which came from Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles.
The wheels started to fall on the Jaguars first possession of the game as Foles was picked off by Buccaneers linebacker Devin White deep in Bucs territory late into the first quarter. The Buccaneers would then score on an eight-play, 69 yard drive with Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber capping it off with a 15-yard run.
Things would get even worse as White would make another appearance by recovering a fumble caused by a crushing hit on Foles from Bucs linebacker Shaq Barrett:

The fumbling woes would continue on the very next drive, as Foles would get strip sacked once again in Tampa Bay territory, but this time by Bucs defensive lineman Carl Nassib. Bucs defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh would recover the fumble.
The downslide of turnovers would continue as Gardner Minshew II would come into the game and throw a pick of his own after throwing a pass that bounced off of Dede Westbrook’s hands and was snagged by Buccaneers cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting. The turnover would be the third total turnover in Bucs territory.
This was a completely sloppy game from the offense whose turnovers prevented the Jags from potentially putting 21 points on the board.
