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\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n 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)<\/p>\n 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.

(Jaguars 7, Chargers 3)<\/p>\n The Jacksonville defense continued their early dominance with another three-and-out, featuring a Travon Walker, Danny Striggow shared sack on first down to force the punt.

(Jaguars 7, Chargers 6)<\/p>\n Following the field goal, Jacksonville continued to dominate via the ground game, opening the drive with a 15-yard Tuten rush, followed by a 16-yard, beautifully-designed delayed tight end leak out by Johnny Mundt. Travis Etienne wrapped up the drive with a Wildcat direct snap touchdown rush from the two-yard line. (Jaguars 14, Chargers 6)<\/p>\n After driving into Jacksonville territory, Chargers\u2019 head coach Jim Harbaugh decided to go for it on fourth-and-seven, with 34 seconds remaining in the half. However, a terrible penalty on BJ Green for Roughing the Passer resulted in offsetting penalties, allowing Harbaugh to change his mind with his franchise quarterback on the sideline being checked on by the trainers.<\/p>\n Jacksonville then took its eight-point lead into the half.
