Jaguars Notebook: Who is to blame for McCoy 75-yard TD run?

Not including a 1-2 record against the Los Angeles-based Raiders, the Bills have lost their past eight games at Oakland. He outlined how the Jaguars could have won the game, what their game plan was, and what they emphasized this week in practice. If not for poor coaching down the stretch from Gus Bradley and a few friendly calls from the officials, Rex may have spent even more time praying as the clock ticked down. It is a message that has been unheard all season, especially by the offense.

Ivory’s touchdown capped an 11-play, 75-yard drive spanning 6:45.

Watkins admitted that he was still trying to get rid of the butterflies early-he didn’t make his first catch until Buffalo’s fourth drive-but that he was also being worked into the offense. Then again, the Bills do tend to struggle in games like these – historically making them much closer than they need to be.

Dareus got a six-year, ,574,118 contract extension that included $60 million in guaranteed money from the Bills last year.

The Jaguars are out of the playoff race but the Bills can turn their destiny around in a win. The 62-yard bomb he caught in the middle of the third quarter was the same kind of play that the Bills’ offense thrived on previous year, and it’s one that nobody was entirely sure they’d see from Sammy so soon. Going into the game, McCoy had rushed for 716 yards. The Jags defense also held the Bills passing attack to just 38 yards. The Jaguars are bad in both of those areas, which leads me to believe that the Bills should have no problems with this game.

Bortles threw to Marqise Lee, who was stopped five yards short of the first down. The score was Ivory’s second of the season and he would go on to lead all Jaguars running backs in yards in this one.

With time running out in the first half, the Jaguars defense forced a 4th and 1 situation at the 13 yard line. Dan Carpenter missed the extra point.

Then came the second half and a different defense came out of the locker room.

“You can just hear the crowd yelling”, McCoy said, recalling his 75-yard touchdown run on the first play from scrimmage in the second half. “It helps in the run game and it helps get everybody else open”. “Anytime you have an explosive play like that it’s big for the offense”.

Tyrod Taylor connected with Watkins on a 62-yard play down the sideline in the third quarter.

So, if the Bills can have success running out of the two tight end set, than hopefully they can get the Jaguars to bite on some play action and try to hit Hunter on a long pass.

Green Bay will be without four players – linebackers Kyler Fackrell (hamstring) and Blake Martinez (knee), guard T.J. Lang (foot) and cornerback Demetri Goodson (knee). “It was a real big play for us”.

MARRONE’S RETURN: Jaguars assistant head coach Doug Marrone returns to Buffalo for the first time since opting out of his contract as Bills head coach following the 2014 season, which led to Ryan being hired.

Buffalo’s Triplets, together for the first time in nine weeks after Watkins came off injured reserve, put on the kind of show in Sunday’s 28-21 comeback win over Jacksonville that was reminiscent of a bygone era.
