Kansas City Chiefs 19, Jacksonville Jaguars 14
Here are the highest-graded players and top takeaways from the Chiefs’ Week 9 victory over the Jaguars.
Quarterback grade: Blake Bortles, 45.5
Bortles struggles to find rhythm against Chiefs’ defense
While Bortles did not get a lot of help from his teammates, including a crucial dropped pass on fourth down early in the game, the Jaguars’ signal-caller was a key reason why Jacksonville’s offense struggled today. Not only was Bortles unable to hit open targets on some occasions, he also misread the coverage at times, which led to three horrible passes that went straight into the hands of Kansas City defenders.
