Cincinnati Bengals fall short of expectations, lose to JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS in 217.40-215.68 nailbiter

Cincinnati Bengals failed to bring their A game, as JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS eked out a 217.40-215.68 win. It wasn't nearly as close as the final score indicates, as JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS led 217.40-28.10 heading into the late afternoon slate on Sunday. Cincinnati Bengals made them sweat behind Tee Higgins (21.6 points) and Vonn Bell (15). JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS were led by Trevor Lawrence (235 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs, 11 Rush Yds) and Christian Kirk (6 Rec, 78 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs). JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (1-1) will look to maintain their momentum against Vegas Raiders, while Cincinnati Bengals (1-1) take on New England Patriots in an effort to develop some positive momentum.

Coach Talk

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS
Whoa, that Colts secondary didn't stand a chance! 25 connections on 30 attempts... good enough for an 83% completion percentage for Trevor Lawrence. In what wound up being a ridiculously tight matchup, the GM of JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS has gotta be appreciative of the attention to detail.
Cincinnati Bengals
Unless Cincinnati Bengals wants to go diva-mode on us, then "not getting enough opportunities" is not an excuse this time around. Our six pass-catchers (five WR and one TE) were targeted a whopping 38 times in Week 2. With only 22 total catches, this group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
