That turnover on downs might have cemented the worst five game stretch in franchise history. #Jaguars have lost by 117 total points these 5 games. In 2013, one of the worst rosters ever assembled lost a 5 game stretch by 112. I have a lot of math happening. pic.twitter.com/3ophPCPOXW

This is how bad the Jags are. The offense has no excuses and still has scored 57 points combined in last 5 games. https://t.co/qwRzfNy6o2
