A game that looked like the Kansas City Chiefs would dominate early on turned into a nightmare before their eyes.
Trevor Lawrence led a strong comeback over the three-time AFC champions to give the Jacksonville Jaguars a 31-28 win.
It looked like it was all Kansas City early, as the Chiefs got out to a 14-0 lead with touchdowns by Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes. However, Trevor Lawrence was able to find Parker Washington before the end of the first half, and Lawrence ran one in on Jacksonville’s first drive of the second to tie it up.
The Chiefs had three timeouts, but with the ball inside their own 20, not even they could get anything going, and a Hail Mary fell well short to give the Jags the victory.
It was the first win for Jacksonville over Kansas City since 2009.
Lawrence threw for only 221 yards on 18-for-25 passing, but his two rushing touchdowns helped. He was also the team’s leading rusher with 10 carries for 54 yards. Mahomes went 29-for-41 for 318 yards.
Lawrence, who was also celebrating his 26th birthday, admitted there was “sheer panic” on his fall, as the Jags didn’t have any timeouts.
“Got stepped on coming out and I was like, ‘I gotta get up.’ And I was gonna throw it out of bounds to stop the clock and there was really no one around me. So went and made a play,” Lawrence said.
Surely, they are not panicking at their 4-1 record, though. Meanwhile, Kansas City fell to 2-3.
The Jaguars host the Seattle Seahawks next week, while the Chiefs will host the Detroit Lions.
