Jaguars insider: “I remember everything…”

Lawrence, who threw for a career-high 368 yards and three touchdowns with a rushing touchdown while playing through a toe injury in a 36-22 victory at AFC South-leading Tennessee Sunday, has thrown for 10 touchdowns with no interceptions since the Denver loss.

And yes, he said, he remembers the criticism that preceded the last five weeks.

“Honestly, I have a little bit more of a chip on my shoulder now just because of the last year and a half,” Lawrence said. “I don’t really forget what’s been said and what people have written. Now, you see people change their mind after a couple weeks. I don’t use that necessarily as my only fuel, but I definitely use that.

“I think that’s something this team’s done. We kind of remember what people were saying when we lost five in a row, and we’ve won some big games now, and people kind of change their minds quick, so we just have that same mentality that we want to prove how good we can be every week, and I think that’s been the cool thing about this team.”

Lawrence also on Wednesday discussed the last play of Sunday’s victory over Tennessee when he confronted Titans defensive lineman Kevin Strong after he kneeled to run out the clock. Titans players aggressively hit center Luke Fortner on the snap, after which Lawrence and Strong met and had words. After the players were separated, Lawrence pointed at the scoreboard before leaving the field.

“I just have a blast out there,” Lawrence said. “I love playing with those guys, especially the group up front. [We] just have a great relationship, take care of each other. That’s where some of that comes in. I think there have been times when we’ve needed a spark. Things like that – myself along with the other guys – have been able to give us that.

“We have a lot of guys that are able to find that, and I think guys kind of get behind that as well.”
