MNF Recaps: The Jaguars get dismantled, while the Bengals defense continues to get gashed
Josh Allen marinates the Jaguars so bad the Bills even let him throw some passes, Kliff Kingsbury gets off MemeWatch by actually letting Terry McLaurin catch a football.
Jaguars 10 at Bills 47
The Bengals and Jaguars are not really in very different places. They both are once-promising AFC Dynasty Entrants with Franchise Quarterbacks. They both are 0-3. They both have institutional rot (Baalke for the Jags, Mike Brown’s cheapness for the Bengals) that keeps them from becoming better. They both have coaches that seem like they should be kind of sharp based on their achievements but that also haven’t really elevated them anywhere.
But the Jaguars were the ones who were completely non-competitive on Monday, getting stormed off the field by Buffalo so quickly that even though they were 4-for-5 on fourth-down conversions at one point, the Jaguars trailed by nearly 30 at halftime. Trevor Lawrence got decked several times, and started looking so unaware of where he was in the pocket that the Jaguars benched him for Mac Jones. Yes, that Mac Jones. Yes, he immediately fumbled. Yes, it was pretty funny.
