Jaguars Throttle Lions
The Jaguars 38-14 win over the Lions was a lot of things: convincing, overdue, welcome and maybe, it will turn out to be a catalyst for the rest of the season.
Considering all of the drama around the Jaguars this past week and the changes made by Jack Del Rio, the win over the lowly Lions was a must.
Considering all of the drama around the Jaguars this past week and the changes made by Jack Del Rio, the win over the lowly Lions was a must.
The Jaguars snapped a losing streak, Fred Taylor went over the 11,000 career yard mark and Maurice Jones-Drew scored three touchdowns.
All in all, it was a comfortable day in MoTown.
As for the thing they hadn't done all year, it was the first time all year that the Jaguars were involved in a game that was decided by more than a touchdown. It was a strange feeling, quite honestly. But it was the kind of performance that Jaguars fans, coaches and players hoped would be a common storyline for the past two games against Cleveland and Cincinnati.
But now is not the time to look back. For the Jaguars, now is the time to look forward. After the win in Detroit, the Jaguars can get back to the .500 mark with a win this week. But it won't be easy. The undefeated Titans come to town on Sunday.
