They say you are only as good as your last game and the last game for the Jaguars was a dud in Denver so they took their show on the road again to The Steel City in search of "get right". They found it. The offense was paced by the play of RB Leonard Fournette as he ran through the curtain for 149yds and a career-tying 5TDs. With the running game working, QB Gardner Minshew didn't have to work as hard but still got the ball to his receivers. WR Michael Thomas topped 100yds again as the lead dog....[ Continue reading ]
