The Jaguars are looking for their first win today, so they’re not too proud to take a gift.

After Titans running back Chris Johnson fumbled on the first play of the game, the Jaguars took advantage of the short field for a quick touchdown drive and a rare lead.

Maurice Jones-Drew capped the three-play drive with a touchdown run, putting the Jaguars up 7-0 on the road.

It was the first touchdown on their opening possession all year, which helps explain why they’re 0-8.
