Closing out the home portion of their schedule in what would be the final
home game of veteran center Brad Meester’s 14-year career, the Jaguars built
a 16-6 lead before consecutive touchdown drives by Tennessee in the second
half led to a 20-16 loss to the Titans. Tennessee ran for 182 yards, with
Shonn Greene pounding out 91 and Chris Johnson 90, and Ryan Fitzpatrick
threw for 181. The Titans scored on their second possession, a 64-yard drive
that set up Rob Bironas’ 45-yard field goal, but the Jaguars answered on the
ensuing series going 80 yards in nine plays to take a 7-3 lead on Marcedes
Lewis’ four-yard catch. Tennessee got within 7-6 on Bironas’ 52-yard field
goal with 1:55 left in the second quarter, and once again the Jaguars
responded on their next drive when Chad Henne’s second touchdown pass
was complete for seven yards to Mike Brown. The Titans’ Bernard Pollard
blocked the extra point try, costing the Jaguars a valuable point and leaving
them with a 13-6 halftime lead. Josh Scobee capped their first possession
of the second half with a 36-yard field goal to give the Jaguars their largest
lead of the day at 16-6. Tennessee, however, then took control of the game
with back-to-back touchdowns drives. An 11-play, 80-yard series was capped
by Green’s one-yard plunge, and after forcing a Jaguars punt the Titans drove
73 yards and took a 20-16 lead on Nate Washington’s 30-yard scoring reception.
The Jaguars’ remaining possessions ended in a punt, a failed fourthdown
attempt and an interception. They began their final series with 1:08
remaining and no timeouts and needing to drive 80 yards because of the
four-point deficit. The teams combined for a total of just seven punts along
with seven fourth-down conversion attempts, with Tennessee converting
three of four and the Jaguars making one of three, and each team converted
only three third-down plays on the day. Lewis posted his fourth straight
game with a TD reception to tie the franchise record, while Henne turned in
his fourth consecutive game with multiple touchdown passes. Andre Branch
got one of the Jaguars’ three sacks, marking his third straight game with a
sack. Maurice Jones-Drew ran for 45 yards and became the 46th player in
NFL history to rush for 8,000 yards.

Closing the season on the road against the AFC South Champion Colts, the
Jaguars fell behind quickly and were unable to find the end zone until their
final play of the game in a 30-10 loss. A rare Maurice Jones-Drew lost fumble,
his first in 525 carries dating to 2011, on the third play of the game set
up the Colts at the Jacksonville 42-yard line and led to a Donald Brown
one-yard scoring run. After forcing a three-and-out the Colts marched again,
going 54 yards for a two-yard touchdown run by Trent Richardson which
made it 14-0 just 7:30 into the game. Another Jacksonville three-and-out
gave the Colts the ball at their own 22, from where they drove 74 yards to
the Jacksonville four-yard line before having to settle for an Adam Vinatieri
field goal for a 17-0 lead late in the first quarter. The Jaguars finally scored
three minutes into the second period on Josh Scobee’s 37-yard field goal.
Near the end of the first half Chad Henne was intercepted by Antoine Bethea
at the Colts’ 15 and his 46-yard return set up the Colts at the Jacksonville
39. On the final play of the half Indianapolis took a 20-3 lead on Vinatieri’s
26-yard field goal. The Colts extended their lead to 27-3 on their first possession
of the second half on Andrew Luck’s seven-yard pass to Griff Whalen,
capping an 80-yard drive. Midway through the fourth quarter Vinatieri kicked
his third field goal of the day for a 30-3 advantage. The Jaguars’ final possession
of the season began at their own nine-yard line with 1:52 remaining
in the game, and Henne marched the offense 91 yards in nine plays, connecting
with Kerry Taylor for a 14-yard touchdown on the final snap. T.Y.
Hilton finished with 11 receptions for 155 yards for the Colts, while Vinatieri
became the fifth-leading scorer in NFL history and Robert Mathis took over
the NFL lead with his two sacks giving him a league-best 19.5 for the year.
The Jaguars finished at 4-12, turning in a 4-4 second half after an 0-8 start.
