Jacksonville Jaguars defeat Kansas City Chiefs: Too Close for Comfort



The above picture is an actual image of a Jacksonville Jaguar, in this case defensive end Julius Williams, actually sacking an opposing quarterback.  Let that sit for a second.

Ok, the Jaguars beat the Kansas City Chiefs 24-21 in what was the windiest game I've seen in awhile.  The Jaguars won, of course, but it came just a little too close at the end.  There's something about teams from Missouri and giving me a little bit of a heart attack at the end.  That the game came down to the Jaguars needing to stop an onside kick attempt was a little unnerving.

But a win is a win is a win, the Jaguars are sitting at 4-4 and are back on track.  David Garrard looked sharp, though Kansas City had him on his back too much for comfort.  Mike Sims-Walker had a great day, his 61 yard touchdown against "hole in zone" was huge, though we owe the Kansas City defense for that one.

I'm not going to be upset though, I'm just happy that we beat a team that we're supposed to beat and that we're officially in the muddled middle of average NFL teams.  Considering all the things we need, being merely average is a good building point for next season.

Here's to a win!


GO JAGS!

That's the right attitude Chris enjoy the win

We won

And we got a few things right that we’ve struggled with. Some sacks, we forced at least five 3 and outs on the Chiefs. MSW had a 147 yard receiving game, with Garrard correctly reading holes in the D twice for big gains.

Some progress. I will take it :)

And by the was

If the Jags switch back to that 4-3 in the rest of the season that alone is making this game a good one!!!

If the O-line finds a way to open a seam for MJD

I see a few more wins coming our way. Teams are still able to load the box against the run and it has been effective at keeping Garrard pressured. Somehow the war in the trenches must be won in a more decided fashion.

Yay average!

I’m not even kidding. That’s better than last season.

I’m definitely with you, Zoltan. The return of the 4-3 is the most positive thing about this game…I don’t want to see Harvey with his hands off the ground the rest of the year.

In Gene We Trust.

It wasn't really

a 4-3 it was more like bear front the whole game. There was a LB coming up the middle on almost every play.

by Ewdtrey on Nov 8, 2009 5:10 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I think this team is a 4-3 team

And other then the last 5 minutes they showed much more life then in the 3-4
I know the Chiefs offense is not the strongest; but this is something we ca n build up in the future

I wouldn't

get too excited. Most of the pressure still didn’t come from the edges, which worries me. All future OL’s have to do is pinch and we would be screwed.

by Ewdtrey on Nov 9, 2009 2:48 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I feel bad for saying this but...

that was not a sack. Cassel got past the line of scrimmage. The only players to get at least partial sack is Daryl Smith and John Henderson.

Knighton

Gets credit for half a sack.

Vae Victis!

by viator on Nov 8, 2009 6:50 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah

came back here to fix that.

3 sacks, we did well

Reggie Nelson appears to be the weakest link on Defense, and on offense the weakest link is the blocking. A good job by all the Jaguars, and we’ll celebrate the win.

Just one question:

There’s something about teams from Missouri and giving me a little bit of a heart attack at the end.

Isn’t the Chiefs from KC, which is not from Missouri?

Yes and no

Yes because I hate the Colts so much

No because Battle Red Blog after a close loss is easily the most entertaining thing to read on the net

anything to derail their soul train.

I don’t think the Jaguars are in the wildcard race, so I hope they beat up on each other

By the way Chris Johnson just ran a 81 yard TD

He is 163 yards and a TD… WOW he is MR Titans too.

At least the Jags aren't the only ones who can't tackle...

I hope the 3-4 is done. It’s just the wrong scheme to run with these players

Good game

Im glad I played MJD and Walker on my FF team

by WarWolf on Nov 9, 2009 12:11 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

I wish I drafted

high enough to get MJD. The RB position this year was pretty weak this year in the lower rounds. Last year I had Thomas Jones, DeAngelo Williams, Steve Slaton, and Chris Johnson. This year they were all drafted much higher and not performing as well.

Word

I got Garrard and Walker
