MUSIC CITY ROMP | The Jaguars ended a dubious streak against the Titans with a 36-22 rout in Nashville on Sunday ... a win that puts Jacksonville right back in the AFC South conversation.
Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Arden Key celebrates after recovering a fumble during the second half of an NFL football game against the Tennessee Titans Sunday, Dec. 11, 2022, in Nashville, Tenn. and a feisty Jaguars defense went into Nashville and did something that hadn’t been done there since 2013. A sterling game from Lawrence and his receivers and a forceful game by an oft-maligned defense delivered a 36-22 beatdown of the Titans on Sunday.
They can’t win on the West Coast , and they can’t beat the Titans in Nashville. Gus Bradley accomplished that feat last in 2013, his first season in Jacksonville, with a 29-27 win.Lawrence, who was questionable with a toe injury entering the game, looked exceptional. He carved up one of the league’s worst pass defenses and the playmakers around him delivered after turning in a clunker last week. Lawrence was 30 of 42 passing for 368 yards and three touchdowns.
With Lawrence and the offense buzzing, the defense put on a clinic. While Yulee High graduate Derrick Henry still got his big yards , the bulk of that came early as the Jaguars slapped the Titans around after the opening quarter. Picked apart for much of the past month and hitting a peak low point in a humiliating 26-point blowout to the Lions last week, Jacksonville finally got something from its defense. The Jaguars cranked up the pass rush and finally put some heat on an opposing quarterback.
