team. 52. I entered this season with high hopes for the Jacksonville Jaguars that have yet to be fulfilled. With Blake Bortles another year in the NFL and dynamic playmakers such as Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns, T.J. Yeldon, and Julius Thomas around him, I expected Jacksonville to come out of the gates with a high scoring offense. Throw in young talent on defense such as Jalen Ramsey, Dante Fowler, Myles Jack, and Malik Jackson and Jacksonville looked as if this was their year to compete for a wild card spot.
<p>But alas the Jaguars are winless in their first two games, and were shut down by the San Diego Chargers on the road. Blake Bortles made too many mistakes, tossing two interceptions and taking two sacks.</p>
<p>The offense was shutout the first three quarters, while San Diego scored 35 points. While Marcedes Lewis and Corey Grant scored touchdowns for the Jaguars in garbage time, the early deficit was unsurmountable.</p>
<p>Allen Hurns and Robinson combined for eight catches over 118 yards in the loss.</p>
<p>Even worse for Jacksonville were the 14 penalties, forcing them to lose 93 yards.</p>
<p>Blake Bortles acknowledged the offense got out of sync and the penalties and turnovers were a big reason why.</p>
<p>The Jaguars have now started four of their last five seasons with an 0-2 record. This could ultimately be the end for Gus Bradley in Jacksonville with so much talent and so few results.</p>
<p>Jacksonville hosts the Baltimore Ravens next week, followed by the Indianapolis Colts in week four.</p>. 0-2. Previous: . Jacksonville Jaguars. 23
