Jaguars Dominate Jets 48-20, Prompting Coaching Changes

The Jacksonville Jaguars dominated the New York Jets with a 48-20 victory, showcasing their offensive prowess and solidifying their playoff aspirations. Trevor Lawrence had a standout performance, throwing for six total touchdowns and over 300 yards, marking a historic achievement in NFL history, as noted by Big Cat Country.

The Jaguars scored on eight of their first nine possessions, highlighting the Jets' defensive struggles as they allowed a season-high 438 yards and 48 points. This disappointing performance led to the firing of Jets defensive coordinator Steve Wilks by head coach Aaron Glenn, who stated the decision was necessary for the organization after the team's poor defensive showing.

Wilks, in his first year with the Jets, had struggled throughout the season, with the team ranking 30th in scoring defense, allowing an average of 28.4 points per game. Chris Harris, the defensive backs coach, has been named the interim defensive coordinator as the Jets look to evaluate their roster and coaching staff in the final three games of the season.

The Jaguars, now at 10-4, are positioned well for a playoff run, with their next challenge against the Denver Broncos looming.
