After Saturday night’s 31-30 comeback win over the Chargers in the AFC playoffs, Pederson said he likely had 150 messages, with several along the lines of the Jaguars can’t keep the suspense up like this.
Those games are chiseled into NFL playoff lore and Jacksonville’s is right there, too. Lawrence threw four first-half interceptions. The Jaguars also lost a fumble on a muffed punt. They were minus-five in the turnover battle, yet still found a way to win.
“Being 27 down, you’re scratching your head,” Pederson said. “You’re going, ‘OK, can we do this? There was a lot of belief at halftime, obviously that we could. Guys felt it. It just showed me again how close this group is, how tight this group is and really, no matter what adversity or the challenges that face us, we’re willing to take them on to tackle them and overcome them.”
Lawrence was sensational after his wrong-side-of-history start. Only two other quarterbacks have thrown four first-half picks in an NFL playoff game and both lost. Lawrence engineered scoring five scoring drives in six chances after his start, including four touchdown passes and setting up Riley Patterson’s walk-off field goal.“Talking with [offensive coordinator] Press [Taylor] yesterday, we just don’t have time to enjoy wins.
