The Jacksonville Jaguars cruised to a 28-3 victory over the New England Patriots in Week 3.
With the clock now at triple-zero, we have our instant takeaways from the Jaguars' performance.
- A terrific response from the Jaguars after letting last week's game slip away. Over and over, Liam Coen's team has showcased their resiliency.
- The Jaguars didn't run the ball a ton, but they were again effective on the ground. Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez averaged nearly 5.0 yards per carryas a duo.
- The Jacksonville offensive line had a better outing in pass protection as well, with Lawrence having more time. According to PFF's early tracking data, Lawrence was under pressure on just 31% of his dropbacks.
- Nine different Jaguars players had at least
one target in the passing game. Five of those pass-catchers had multiple receptions.
- The Jacksonville defense was excellent. The Patriots had nowhere to go in the run game, while moving the ball through the air was inconsistent.
- The Jaguars' pass rush was more disruptive this week than last as well. Parker Washington continues to create chunk plays in the pass game.
- Rookie WR Josh Cameron just continues to make plays when his number is called.
- Red zone performance was a defining factor in this game. The Jaguars' offense was perfect, going 5-for-5, while the Patriots' offense was 0-for-3.
- It feels like it's just a matter of time before Cam Little hits a 70-yarder. He was so close on Sunday.
- Travis Hunter had his first interception and played a season-high snaps on defense as well. Coen mentioned earlier in the week that he could see more opportunities.
- The Jaguars' offense was an impressive 8-for-12 on third downs. You're going to win a lot of games when operating that efficiently on third downs.
