There's no quit yet in Urban Meyer's Jags — just a lot of mistakes

It was fourth down on the 4-inch line, the Jacksonville Jaguars about as close to a touchdown as physically possible. They trailed Tennessee by 12 with 10:28 in the fourth quarter.

This was part of the good news for the embattled Urban Meyer. His team clearly hadn’t quit on him.

After a series of coach-created “distractions,” as Meyer dubbed it, the professional football players in Jacksonville were acting like professionals. They continued to battle. They still had a chance. Bang it in here and it’s a one-score game.
