The Jaguars took advantage of a Colts teams on that Sunday that just finished sending two of their cornerstone players elsewhere. Jacksonville won 42-7 and may have just forced the Colts to continue selling off their best remaining pieces on the roster to fully embrace the upcoming rebuild.
For their efforts, CBS Sports’ John Breech gave them a shining “A” grade in his weekly report card series.
‘‘It took eight weeks, but Bayshul Tuten finally had his breakout game, and it was impressive: The Jaguars
running back topped 100 yards on the ground with a TD, and he added another 55 receiving yards with another TD. This was exactly what the Jags were hoping to see from Tuten when they let Travis Etienne leave in free agency. Tuten has been good this year and it looks like he might be ready to make the jump to great. Defensively, the Jags came out of their bye on fire: They harassed Daniel Jones to the tune of three sacks and Rayuan Lane III added a 92-yard pick-six that essentially iced the game in the second quarter (Yes, this game was over in the second quarter). The blowout win meant the Jags could bench several starters in the fourth quarter, a huge perk for a Jacksonville team that has to turn around and play on Thursday night.”
Do you think this was the correct grade? Should they have received a “+” to go with their A? Let us know below!
