Five years ago, the Jacksonville Jaguars were riding high after a fourth quarter drive ended in a game-winning field goal by Jason Myers. They had vanquished the Miami Dolphins at home. The sun was setting on Blake Bortles’ 16th game — a full season’s worth of action.
It felt good.
At the time.
Over the next five years, the Jaguars would claw and scrape their way to just 28 more wins. We overcame a 21-0 deficit. We lucked into Elvis Dumervil grabbing the quarterback’s face mask.
