In a tight match-up, the Tennessee Titans took a 33-30 home victory against the Jags with what seemed to be a handful of game-defining plays (including Gardner Minshew’s final tipped pass interception to seal the loss).

Jaguars Coach Doug Marrone opened his media session by commenting point-blank about falling short. “You know, we made some mistakes early in this game. We made some mistakes throughout. We did some good things, but at the end of the day we fell short. There’s some things I think that we can improve upon, obviously, and we will, and we don’t have a lot of time because we’ve got this quick turnaround. Credit to Tennessee. They were able to make some plays, and at the end of the day we weren’t able to make a play to get us over the top or stop a play. That’s where we are.”

Another quick, but attention getting topic was commented on by Marrone when rookie backfield presence James Robinson was brought up during the session. The question fixated on Robinson’s sparking impact in the second half. Side note: Robinson accumulated 102 yds on 16 rushes with 1 TD. The Jaguars coach had this to say about his running-backs performance. “Yeah, I thought even in the first half, a couple of those runs, they almost came out. You know, and he was getting positive yardage and he had a really good catch. I think what you guys are seeing now is probably what I’ve been seeing all camp, just a real steady, good football player. If something is there he’s going to find it. He’s not going to make mistakes and lose yardage for you or things of that nature and try to keep the chains going. He’s a tough runner. He’s got a little burst getting through to the second level. I was happy to see him take that one obviously to the end zone.”
