Jaguars ground Eagles 13-6
The Jaguars just buttoned up their chin straps and beat up the Eagles. With David Garrard playing QB in place of Byron Leftwich, the offense decided to give the ball to their playmakers and see what happened. David Garrard completed 10 of 17 passes for 87 yards and ran the ball 8 times for 36 yards (4.4 ypc). Fred Taylor was almost unstoppable with 15 carries for 103 yards (6.9 ypc) and a TD. Maurice Drew carried the ball 21 times for 77 yards (3.7 ypc) and caught 3 passes for 20 yards.
The defense shut down the Eagles vaunted offense. The Jags held the Eagles to 85 yards rushing on 20 carries (4.3 ypc). The Eagles passing game never got going against the Jaguars, completing 18 of 34 passes for 142 net yards thru the air.
This was a HUGE win coming off of last weeks disappointing game.
