Grading the Jaguars: Week 5 vs. Tampa Bay

Jaguars report card

Times-Union sports columnist Gene Frenette grades the Jaguars’ performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers based on production, effort and game circumstances.

Offense – B

Blake Bortles (23 of 33, 303 yards, 4 TDs) recovered nicely from a ghastly second-quarter interception to lead three scoring drives, using all of his weapons to bring Jaguars back from 13-point deficit. But Corey Grant’s brutal fumble on a simple pitch and subsequent Bucs’ TD was turning point of game, killing all the momentum Jaguars built up. This team still can’t get out of its own way.
