The Jacksonville Jaguars never really stood in a chance in an embarassing 32-3 loss to the New York Jets.
Quarterback Luke McCown completed just six passes for 59 yards while throwing four to the other team.

Jacksonville obviously never stood a chance because the turnover battle was so lopsided, but they weren’t effective in moving the ball, either. ( Read More…)

The Jacksonville Jaguars pulled one of the surprise moves of the offseason by releasing starting quarterback David Garrard.
Garrard was inside the top 15 when it came to quarterback ratings last year, but his high salary made him expendable.
The team plans to start Luke McCown until rookie quarterback Blaine Gabbert can get his feet under him.
The Jaguars pulled off a similar move a few years ago when they suddenly cut loose Byron Leftwich. ( Read More…)

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback David Garrard will miss the team’s season finale with an injury to his finger.
The loss of Garrard, despite his sometimes erratic play, is a big hit to the Jaguars and their playoff hopes.
A loss to the Houston Texans would mean elimination from playoff contention, though a Colts victory would also knock them out of postseason play.
Without him under center, Jacksonville will be forced to turn to Trent Edwards, who has regressed over the past couple of years. ( Read More…)
