Jaguars...36 Bills...14
- Share via
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Fred Taylor ran for a season-high 104 yards and a touchdown, Josh Scobee kicked five field goals and the Jacksonville Jaguars beat the Buffalo Bills, 36-14, in a game that was more lopsided than even the final score indicated.
It was Jacksonville’s third consecutive victory and kept the team in the thick of the AFC playoff picture.
The Jaguars (8-3) probably need to beat Indianapolis next week to have a shot at the AFC South title.
The Bills (5-6) were hoping to rebound from a 56-10 drubbing against New England.
Instead, they got another beating.
This one helped the Patriots clinch the AFC East.
David Garrard hooked up with Reggie Williams for a 59-yard score that put Jacksonville ahead 29-14 with 2:39 remaining, then Maurice Jones-Drew added a 17-yard scoring run with 1:43 to play.
Quoteworthy: “We’re ready for the Colts now.” -- Clint Ingram, Jaguars linebacker
