Jaguars' Clock Woes Plague Crucial London Game
14 Oct
Summary
- Jaguars struggled with clock management and penalties in London.
- Coach Coen accepted responsibility for delay of game penalties.
- Discipline issues could impact Jaguars if not resolved soon.
The Jacksonville Jaguars narrowly defeated the Philadelphia Eagles in London last Sunday, though their own critical errors hampered their performance. In the fourth quarter, a drive stalled at the Eagles' 1-yard line due to a burned timeout and subsequent delay of game penalties, ultimately resulting in no points. Head coach Liam Coen has claimed responsibility for these delay of game penalties, particularly in loud environments. He plans to simplify play calls to aid the team in managing the clock more effectively. The Jaguars committed 13 penalties in the London game, matching their Week 4 total. This consistent lack of discipline poses a significant concern that Coen must address to prevent future negative impacts on game outcomes.
