Jaguars Loss Decided By These Big Plays in Overtime

1. Just not enough. Sunday’s game essentially was decided by two big plays in overtime, with the first coming with the Colts facing third-and-10 at their 30-yard line on the first overtime series. Colts quarterback Joe Flacco threw to wide receiver Alec Pierce, who – with Jaguars cornerback Tyson Campbell in coverage – made a leaping, physical catch for a 17-yard gain. That allowed the Colts to continue driving, with kicker Matt Gay converting a 38-yard field goal eight plays later for a 26-23 lead with 5:23 remaining in overtime. The Jaguars, needing a touchdown to win and a field goal to extend overtime, faced third-and-six on their 34-yard line on the ensuing series when linebacker Zaire Franklin sacked quarterback Mac Jones for a 16-yard loss. On fourth-and-22 from the Jaguars 18, Jones threw 20 yards to rookie wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. to end the game.
