Not many offensive players came to play tonight in Jacksonville. Fortunately for the Jaguars, kicker Josh Scobee did.

Scobee nailed a 54-yard field goal in the first quarter and another 54-yard field goal in the second quarter to give the underdog Jaguars a surprising 6-0 lead.

Although it’s been a miserable season for the Jaguars, they can take solace in the fact that they have one of the league’s best kickers: Scobee is now 12-for-12 on field goals this season, with four kicks of 53 yards or longer.

Scobee has been a bright spot in an otherwise miserable game, with Joe Flacco unable to get anything going on the Ravens’ offense and Maurice Jones-Drew unable to hold onto the football for the Jaguars.
