The two-win Jaguars are still the two-win Jaguars. But they gave the Bills everything they could handle on Sunday.

Buffalo won a game that featured five second-half lead changes, with a 28-21 final score.

The Jaguars had a chance to tie the game late, but their drive petered out in Buffalo territory. The Bills then milked the final 3:25 off the clock to preserve the win.

The home team started slowly, generating only six points in the first half with sputtering offense. Buffalo finished with 304 net yards, more than Jacksonville’s 301.

Running back LeSean McCoy, who dislocated a thumb last week and had surgery, rushed for only five yards in the first half. He added 98 in the second half.

The 6-5 Bills face the Raiders in Oakland before three straight home games against the Steelers, Browns, and Dolphins. Buffalo ends the season with a visit to the Jets.
