By Hays Carlyon The inside track for home-field advantage throughout the playoffs: Gone. The chance to make a definite statement about being a legit contender: Squandered. The opportunity to provide the city with a signature home victory: Blown. The Chiefs owning the Jaguars: Very much alive. The Jaguars still can’t play close to a crisp offensive game when they see the Chiefs. Sunday’s 17-9 disaster was the most galling of […]

Gators are young but Napier looks like the rookie By Hays Carlyon Presented by Woolsey Morcom Florida was certainly relying on several freshmen and first-year players in Thursday night’s opening game at No. 14 Utah.

By Hays Carlyon Hooray, the preseason is over. The Jaguars made it out of the finale without any substantial injuries in a 31-18 win over Miami on Saturday night at EverBank Stadium. The offense found its rhythm immediately, putting together two impressive drives with the starters. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence helped lead the offense to 12 first downs on their first two possessions. You’ve got a problem, Indianapolis. And Houston. And […]
