by The Jacksonville Jaguars fell apart again.
Today’s Jacksonville Jaguars Insiders Podcast focuses on the fallout from the latest Jaguars loss and why things went so sideways.
Jacksonville made its best effort against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sundaybut they suffered their fifth one-score defeat of the season in a crushing 28–23 defeat.
Jacksonville threw everything they could at the Eagles, but self-inflicted mistakes once again doomed the Jaguars.
With a number of self-inflicted mistakes, the Jaguars saw another potential win fall out of their reach. It started with an Austin Trammell fumble on his first punt return attempt of the game, which led directly to points for the Eagles.
However, that was not the only mistake. The Jaguars turned the ball over three times in the loss, with Trammell’s fumble leading to the first score of the game. It wasn’t the only play that led to points, however, with a tipped interception also sparking a scoring drive from the Eagles.
The Eagles tried to give the game back to the Jaguars time and time again, but the Jaguars never pulled the trigger in the upset. The Eagles sidestepped two field goals to go for fourth-down conversions, but the Jaguars denied them twice. The Eagles also tried to go for two on three separate occasions, with the Jaguars stopping them each time.
But despite a Travon Walker recovery for a touchdown and a late touchdown rush from quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the Jaguars were unable to finish the game. They allowed a late scoring drive by the Eagles, but the defense was able to respond by forcing a missed field goal and getting the ball back with just over two minutes remaining.
Despite this, the Jaguars simply couldn’t get out of the way, which was the story of their 2024 season. The Jaguars drove the ball into Eagles territory, but the game ended with an interception to Nakobe Dean after the Jaguars attempted to pass the ball to the to force third-string running back D’Ernest Johnson.
Jacksonville will look to get back on track next week. But for now, they are on a two-game losing streak and own a 2-7 record.
