Claiming their first victory under Head Coach Gus Bradley and General
Manager Dave Caldwell, the Jaguars played their best game to date to claim
a 29-27 win in Nashville. A wild fourth quarter featured five scoring plays,
with three by the Titans offense and two by the Jaguars defense. On the day
the Jacksonville defense had four takeaways and a safety, setting up 19
points, and the unit set the tone on Tennessee’s first play when Paul
Posluszny forced and recovered a Chris Johnson fumble at the Titans’ 19-yard
line. Maurice Jones-Drew’s six-yard blast into the end zone gave the Jaguars
an early 7-0 lead, and two Josh Scobee field goals from 32 and 44 yards
made 13-0 early in the second quarter. Titans quarterback Jake Locker left
the game midway through the second quarter with a foot injury, and Ryan
Fitzpatrick directed a touchdown drive on his first series, hitting Taylor
Thompson on Tennessee’s final play of the first half to narrow the lead to
13-7. Both teams scored on their first possession of the second half, with
the Jaguars marching 79 yards in eight plays to set up Jordan Todman’s fiveyard
touchdown run, followed by Tennessee’s 11-play series ending in a
39-yard Rob Bironas field goal to make it a ten-point game at 20-10.
Bironas’ second field goal, which made it 20-13, was set up by a Chad Henne
interception at the Jacksonville 32. After Jacksonville downed a Bryan Anger
punt at the Tennessee one-yard line the Titans were penalized for holding in
their end zone, resulting in a safety and a nine-point Jaguars lead at 22-13.
On their next possession the Titans drove 72 yards in just five plays, with
Fitzpatrick running in from the four to narrow the score to 22-20 with 4:15
left in the game. The next Titans possession resulted in another score from
the Jaguars defense as Will Blackmon stripped Fitzpatrick and ran 21 yards
for a touchdown and a 29-20 lead. Tennessee responded again, this time
covering 82 yards in 12 plays with Fitzpatrick hitting Delanie Walker with a
14-yard touchdown pass with 40 seconds remaining to make it a two-point
game again, 29-27. Jacksonville then recovered the Titans’ onside kick and
ran out the clock. The win snapped a 13-game losing streak for the Jaguars.

A fast start gave the Jaguars an early 14-0 lead after their first two possessions,
but Arizona tied the game in the second quarter before taking over in
the second half en route to a 27-14 win. Each team punted eight times as
they combined for just 46 rushing yards on the day, with 32 by Jacksonville
and 14 by Arizona, but Carson Palmer threw for 419 yards despite three
sacks. On the first series of the game the Jaguars were faced with a fourthand-one
at their own 38-yard line, and their aggressiveness was rewarded
when Chad Henne hit Danny Noble with a short pass that Noble took the
distance for a 62-yard scoring play. The Cardinals answered with a touchdown
drive of their own, marching 80 yards in 10 plays with Palmer throwing
14 yards to Larry Fitzgerald to cap it. The Jacksonville special teams made
the next big play, a 59-yard return of the ensuing kickoff by Jordan Todman
that set the offense up at the Arizona 46. Seven plays later Maurice Jones-
Drew pounded in from one yard out for his 80th career touchdown and a
14-7 lead. From there the teams took turns punting until 1:55 remained in
the first half when Rashard Mendenhall ran five yards for a touchdown to
knot the score at 14-14. On the final play of the half Josh Scobee attempted
a 60-yard field goal, which would have been a franchise record, but the
kick missed wide left. The Cardinals wasted no time in taking control of the
game after halftime, scoring on their first two possessions to take a 24-14
lead. First, a good goal line stand by the Jaguars defense forced a 21-yard
Jay Feely field goal, and on the Cardinals’ next series Palmer connected with
Michael Floyd on a 91-yard touchdown pass. After both teams punted several
more times Henne was intercepted and the Cardinals took over at the
Jacksonville 22, setting up Feely’s 32-yard field goal which made it 27-14
midway through the fourth quarter. The Jaguars failed on a fourth-down play
on their next drive, and then Henne was intercepted to end the Jaguars’ final
possession of the afternoon. Noble’s 62-yard touchdown was the first reception
of his career. Bryan Anger dropped a career-best six of his eight punts
inside the Arizona 20.
