Three first half trips to the red zone yielded just nine points and the Jaguars never managed to see the red zone in the second half.
A relatively strong showing by the Jacksonville Jaguars defense held Cam Newton to just 175 passing yards and kept the Carolina Panthers offense to just 13 points, but a pick-six thrown by Blake Bortles in the third quarter gave the visiting team a lead that the Jaguars were never able to erase in a 20-9 loss.
Bortles led the Jaguars on a few drives early in the game, but three first half drives into the redzone yielded just nine points thanks to an Allen Hurns fumble and a missed extra point by Jason Myers.
