The Jaguars’ remarkable and memorable season ended in Kansas City with a 27-20 loss to the Chiefs. Here are my four takeaways from this huge turnaround campaign:
The Jaguars had the third-biggest comeback in NFL playoff history last week against the Chargers. Their reward is a second-round game against the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium, one of the toughest stadiums in all sports to play in.
News4JAX has reporters up in Kansas City for the game and also back here as Jacksonville cheers on its Jaguars. There’s a watch party at Daily’s Place and sports bars and restaurants across town will be going strong before, during and after the game.
It’s unfamiliar territory for most Jaguars players. The bright glare of the NFL postseason and everything that comes along with it can disrupt the normal NFL flow. Doug Pederson knows all about it.
The Jaguars won the AFC South in a prime-time showdown last week and are back at it on Saturday night in their first playoff game since the 2017 season.
