<p>Jaguars linebacker Paul Posluszny was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for his performance against the Titans on Sunday.</p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigcatcountry.com/">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> haven't garnered many, and to be truthful I don't know if they've had any, during their 2013 season, but on Sunday linebacker <span>Paul Posluszny's</span> performance was apparently worthy of being honored.</p>
<p>The league named Posluszny the AFC Defensive Player of the Week for his game against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/">Tennessee Titans</a> on Sunday, in which he picked up eight tackles and forced a fumble, one of the Jaguars four turnovers forced on defense.</p>
<p>Discussion about Poz always seems to go to the extreme one way or the other, though despite being ridiculously overpaid, he's still a solid linebacker in the middle. He suffered a concussion late in Sunday's game and it appears he may not be a go for the Jaguars return home on Sunday against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.revengeofthebirds.com/">Arizona Cardinals</a>.</p>
<p>He's been one of the top dogs for the Jaguars defensively and the coaching staff loves him, so he'd be a big loss on Sunday.</p>

<p>Prior to Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans, Jaguars corner Will Blackmon wrote down that he'd force a fumble and get Gus Bradley his first win. He put the piece of paper in his sock and made both happen.</p> <p><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigcatcountry.com/">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> defensive back <span>Will Blackmon</span> had one of the best plays on Sunday, a strip-sack of quarterback <span>Ryan Fitzpatrick</span> that he recovered and ran back for a touchdown. Not only did he get the sack, strip, recovery AND touchdown, but it also sealed the Jaguars first victory of the season.</p>
<p>Blackmon didn't start for the Jaguars in Sunday's game against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/">Titans</a>, as rookie <span>Dwayne Gratz</span> made his way back in the starting lineup, but Blackmon is familiar with playing in the slot and was ready for whatever the coaching staff needed him to do.</p>
<p>"I was ready for it," Blackmon said after the game. "I love being in the slot-in the nickel and blitzing, that's something I believe I do well at, so I was happy to make that play."</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn3.sbnation.com/imported_assets/1911979/jags.gif" class="photo" alt="Jags_medium"></p>
<p>Not only was Blackmon ready to play the position and in the packages, but he kinda-sorta predicted that he'd not only force a fumble, but get Gus Bradley his first win as an NFL head coach.</p>
<p>"It was cool. I wrote that on a little piece of paper-I said, ‘Get a game ball for Gus.' It was one of my goals today, and it was really cool," Blackmon told reporters after the game, as he pulled a piece of paper out of his sock to show them. "I'll show you one of the other goals on the paper, ‘I will have one caused fumble'-see it right there."</p>
<p>There you have it.</p>
<p>Witchcraft.</p>

<p>Jaguars defensive tackle Sen'Derrick Marks returned to Tennessee to face the team who drafted him and enjoyed one of his better games of the season.</p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigcatcountry.com/">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> saw their defense play more like they did in the start of the season in Sunday's win against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/">Tennessee Titans</a>. They limited the run and frustrated the quarterback despite a lack of pass rush. Former Titans defensive lineman <span>Sen'Derrick Marks</span> had himself a nice return to Tennessee, however.</p>
<p>Marks ended up the Jaguars third highest graded defender on Sunday <a href="https://go.redirectingat.com?id=66960X1516590&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.profootballfocus.com&referrer=sbnation.com&sref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bigcatcountry.com%2F2013%2F11%2F12%2F5095870%2Fsenderrick-marks-jaguars-titans-performance" target="_blank" rel="sponsored nofollow noopener">according to Pro Football Focus</a>, rushing the passer. Marks finished Sunday's game with four pressures on the quarterback, bringing his season total of 14, which is the second most on the team.</p>
<p>One of the reason's Marks was so successful is that he took advantage of rookie offensive lineman Chance Warmack. Warmack struggled on the day in pass protection, picking up a second consecutive poor grade in pass protection in as many weeks.</p>
<p>Marks has been one of the few consistently good players on the Jaguars defense all season and is certainly making his case to be re-signed in the offseason, as he signed a one-year deal this season.</p>

<p>The Jaguars picked up their first win of the season on Sunday against the Titans. Here's what players and coaches had to say after the game.</p> <p>With the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigcatcountry.com/">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> picking up their first win of the season, head coach Gus Bradley and some of the players had a lot to say after the game.</p>
<h5>Gus Bradley on if it was relief or excitement in getting the first win of the season:</h5>
<p>"I think it is more excitement. What I am excited about is that we improved in many areas. On my call sheet I was writing down things that were really good that were happening during the game and they just kept piling up. I said this is how it feels and guys just playing within themselves. I thought Cecil Shorts catch that he made on the sidelines in the first half was just a great illustration. That's how Cecil looks in practice and then he did it again. And I said, that's it, that's all you have got to do. Our guys stayed strong all year on this belief and to see it come to life is great."</p>
<h5>
<span>Chad Henne</span> on doing the small things right:</h5>
<p>"I think we did a good job on first and second down. I still think we need improvement on third down but most of them on first and second down we converted before we got to third down and got it in a playmaker's hand, especially in the backfield. I thought the offensive line did a great job with the running game and staying to our plan with this game."</p>
<h5>
<span>Sen'Derrick Marks</span> on how frustrating 0-8 can be:</h5>
<p>"It depends on what way you look at it. From our team perspective, from Gus' (Bradley) perspective it's all about us getting better. It's a process and he always makes a good point-would you rather win with low effort and not maximizing your effort and we were all like, ‘Wow, that's real deep.' We came out that way today, and it's also great for the fans and great for the organization. For us as a team, we're all just focused on getting better."</p>
<h5>
<span>Will Blackmon</span> on getting Gus Bradley his first win:</h5>
<p>"It was cool. I wrote that on a little piece of paper-I said, ‘Get a game ball for Gus.' It was one of my goals today, and it was really cool. (Blackmon pulled out a piece of paper and showed the goal) I'll show you one of the other goals on the paper, ‘I will have one caused fumble'-see it right there."</p>
<h5>
<span>Marcedes Lewis</span> on how his stiff arm and run set the tone for the game:</h5>
<p>"A little bit. Obviously, this is my eighth year playing against this team and they've always been a team that we said it's going to be a two-chinstrap game, so we just wanted to come out and set the tone, let them know it was going to be a long day. From that point on it just carried on and we made a few more plays than they did to win the game."</p>
<h5>
<span>Maurice Jones-Drew</span> on the bye week helping the team:</h5>
<p>"I think it helped a ton. We were able to get away for a little bit. Coach gave us the whole week off, which I don't think a lot of teams would have gotten that. Guys got a chance to go see their families and get away for a little bit and kind of come back and just rededicate ourselves to the fundamentals of football, and it showed. There was a lot of effort put in today, and guys did a heck of a job."</p>

<p>The Jaguars picked up their first win of the season over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, leaving Titans tight end Delanie Walker "disgusted and embarrassed".</p> <p>The <a href="https://www.bigcatcountry.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> defeated the <a href="https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Tennessee Titans</a> on Sunday 29-27, their first victory of the season. While there was much celebration and relief from Jaguars fans, some Titans players were upset at the loss, even disgusted by it.</p>
<p> </p>
<div class="pullquote">"We just got whooped by the Jaguars,"<span>-Titans TE <span>Delanie Walker</span></span>
</div>
<p>"It's disgusting. I'm disappointed. I'm embarrassed. A team that's 0-8 comes in here and beats us? Beats us on our home field, that's 0-8, the Jaguars? Come on," Titans tight end Delanie Walker <a target="_blank" href="http://ten.247sports.com/Article/Embarrassment-Titans-hand-0-8-Jaguars-first-win-of-the-season-159820">told the media after Sunday's game</a>.</p>
<p>Most teams likely view the Jaguars as an easy game, which isn't surprising considering they've been uncompetitive in the majority of their first eight losses, but clearly Walker seems to indicate that the Titans looked past the Jaguars to their Thursday Night Football match up with the <a href="https://www.stampedeblue.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Indianapolis Colts</a>.</p>
<p>"Talking about first place? Talking about first place? We just got whooped by the Jaguars," Walker continued. "We ain't talking first place no more. It's out the window. We've got to come back and play the Colts. I don't know how everybody's gonna handle it. I mean, we lost to the Jaguars."</p>
<p>The Jaguars have now beaten the Titans in two of their last three meetings, including picking up their second win last season at EverBank Field. No only are the Titans 2-1 against the Jaguars in the last three meetings, but they also gave the Indianapolis Colts their first win back in 2012.</p>
<p>It's kind of become a thing for them.</p>

<p>The Jaguars defense forced four turnovers and a safety in an upset victory over the Titans.</p> <p>With four forced turnovers and a fourth quarter safety, the defense of the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigcatcountry.com/">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> led the team to their first win of the season, upsetting their division rival-<a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/">Tennessee Titans</a> 29-27.</p>
<p>The Jaguars earned an early 13-0 lead after a fumble forced of running back Chris Johnson set the team up in the red zone which was promptly turned into a six-yard touchdown for Maurice Jones-Drew. Two more first half turnovers helped the Jaguars to keep the Titans off the scoreboard until late in the second quarter.</p>
<p>While the Jaguars had their greatest point total of the season, the offense struggled most of the game, including two interceptions thrown by <span>Chad Henne</span>, who finished with a 49.2 passer rating after completing 14-of-23 passes for 180 yards.</p>
<p>Instead it was the defense that was responsible for nine points in the fourth quarter to preserve the victory. A holding penalty forced by <span>Sen'Derrick Marks</span> gave the team a safety, while a sack, forced fumble returned for a touchdown by cornerback <span>Will Blackmon</span> ended any remaining Tennessee hopes for a victory.</p>
<p>The Jaguars will next travel back home where they will host the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.revengeofthebirds.com/">Arizona Cardinals</a> and attempt to win back-to-back games for the first time since December 2010.</p>

<p>The Jaguars earned a 13-7 lead after forcing the Titans into three first half turnovers.</p> <p>The winless <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigcatcountry.com/">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> have a halftime lead for the first time this season after a strong first half against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.musiccitymiracles.com/">Tennessee Titans</a> that ended with the visiting Jaguars leading 13-7.</p>
<p>For the Jaguars, the early lead was spurred by a strong defensive performance and three forced turnovers. The team recovered two fumbles from Titans running back Chris Johnson and rookie cornerback <span>Dwayne Gratz</span> hauled in an interception from <span>Jake Locker</span>.</p>
<p>Offensively, the Jaguars didn't do much after a six-yard touchdown from <span>Maurice Jones-Drew</span> put the team on the board early. Despite receiving solid field position multiple times thanks to the defense, the Jaguars offense settled for two field goals from <span>Josh Scobee</span> and <span>Chad Henne</span> finished the half with a 54.2 passer rating.</p>
<p>The Jaguars will be the recipients of the kickoff in the second half.</p>
