The Jacksonville Jaguars Won? Against an NFL Team?

Yes, I know; it's hard to believe, but it is true. The Jacksonville Jaguars managed to do something that many (including this guy) never thought would happen--they actually beat someone! What makes the whole thing even crazier was that it was an actual NFL team--and they lead the entire game!

From Bleacher Report
Maurice Jones-Drew got the Jaguars started with this touchdown run barely a minute and a half into the game. Jacksonville actually managed to stretch the lead to 13-0 before the Tennessee Titans were able to get a touchdown late in the first half to cut the gap to 13-7.

You would think that the Jags would have lost it from there with less than a touchdown separating the two, and they almost did before the defense came to the rescue!

From Bleacher Report
Early in the fourth the Titans scored to close the gap to 20-13. They opened the game up a little bit more with a safety to make the score 22-13; a gap that Ryan Fitzpatrick closed to 22-20 on the Titans next possession.

That's where the defense came back into the picture again stripping Fitzpatrick of the ball and returning it for the touchdown (see above)!

The game wasn't over of course; this is the Jacksonville Jaguars we are talking about after all. They let Tennessee score a late touchdown to close the gap to 29-27, but the Titans failed to recover the onside kick.

And Jacksonville actually won! 

So much for the No. 1 pick in the draft.
