First quarter

For a second straight week, Mac Jones and the Jaguars started hot and scored on their opening drive. Jones completed 4 of 4 passes for 15 yards and 2 first downs to get in position for a 59-yard (!) Cam Little field goal.

Jaguars 3, Lions 0

Detroit answered right back by driving 70 yards in 9 plays to set up a 2-yard David Montgomery touchdown.

Jaguars 3, Lions 7

Second quarter

At least the first 10 minutes were close! Jacksonville went three-and-out on its second possession before Detroit travelled 93 yards in 13 plays to set up a 1-yard Jahmyr Gibbs touchdown.

Jaguars 3, Lions 14

Another Jaguars three-and-out, another Lions rushing touchdown. Montgomery cashed in again, this time from 6 yards out.

Jaguars 3, Lions 21

The Jags picked up a first down! But then punted three plays later. Gibbs caught a swing pass and ran 54 yards to set up a walk-in 27-yard touchdown for Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Jaguars 3, Lions 28

The first half ended the same way it started, as Jacksonville was able to scrap together a few first downs to get in position for a 35-yard field goal by Little.

Jaguars 6, Lions 28

Third quarter

Rather than chewing clock, the Lions scored quickly to open the second half thanks to a 64-yard touchdown from Jameson Williams.

Jaguars 6, Lions 35

The Jaguars went three-and-out on its first possession of the second half — classic — and the Lions came back with a 14-play, 83-yard drive that took almost eight minutes off the clock and ended with a Brock Wright spike.

Jaguars 6, Lions 42

Fourth quarter

Jacksonville picked up a first down — huzzah — on a 21-yard Brian Thomas Jr. catch, but shortly after, Gabe Davis limped off the field with what looked to be a serious knee injury and Jones threw an interception. St. Brown recorded his second score of the day as Goff surpassed 400 yards passing. For the first time since the NFL merger, Detroit has scored a touchdown on each of its first seven offensive possessions.

Jaguars 6, Lions 49

The Lions officially made it a 50-burger with a 54-yard field goal by Jake Bates. This is the most points allowed in Jaguars history.

Jaguars 6, Lions 52
