As the Jacksonville Jaguars headed out to Indianapolis for one of their biggest regular-season games in franchise history, an impressive number of fans showed up to see them off.

According to the folks at Big Cat Country, more than 2,000 came to Everbank Field as the team started on their trek to Indiana.

The Jaguars will capture an unlikely AFC South crown with a win on Sunday. Not bad for a team that was stuck in the basement when the Colts, Titans, and Texans each were 5-2, with the Jags winning only three of their first seven games.
