In LA’s first visit back to Jacksonville since the 2022 “27-0” Wildcard comeback matchup, the ghosts of years’ past continue to haunt the Bolts. With Sunday’s win, the Jaguars still control their own playoff destiny, currently holding the seventh (WildCard) playoff spot, were the postseason to begin today.

The following Jacksonville players left Sunday’s game due to injury:
1st Quarter
The Jacksonville defense began the day with a quick three-and-out, courtesy of a Travon Walker forced intentional grounding on first down. However, after the punt, the Jacksonville offense put together a promising 10 play, 47-yard drive before turning the ball over on downs. Instead of attempting the 58-yard field goal attempt – well inside Cam Little’s range, the offense attempted to convert the fourth and three in the air. The ball fell incomplete, with Lawrence hitching at his first read, Parker Washington, who seemed open on the play.
Taking over near midfield, the Jacksonville defense held, forcing a 41-yard field goal after giving up two early first downs. (Jaguars 0, Chargers 3)
The Jacksonville offense picked up on the following drive, answering with a 6-play, 74-yard Bhayshul Tuten touchdown drive, buoyed by a 31-yard defensive pass interference penalty on the Chargers to move Jacksonville into the redzone. Tuten took the final three rushes of the drive for 21-yards, including a 4-yard touchdown to take the early lead. (Jaguars 7, Chargers 3)
