When Trevor Lawrence steps on the field this weekend, he will be doing so knowing that he has never experienced a sinking feeling on any team he has ever played on.
Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has a career 37-0 record on Saturdays. This includes his time at Clemson and Cartersville High School. His record was in danger of being broken after the Chargers held a 27-0 lead on the Jags this past weekend. As we saw, Lawrence led his team all the way back. Lawrence finished his NFL playoff debut with 288 passing yards, four touchdowns and four interceptions.
His incredible streak began with back-to-back state championships at Cartersville High School in 2015 and 2016.
During the regular season, Kansas City defeated Jacksonville by a final score of 27-17 back in November. Lawrence completed 29-of-40 pass attempts for 259 yards with two touchdowns. On the other side, Patrick Mahomes had 331 passing yards with four touchdowns and an interception. He also had 39 rushing yards on seven attempts.
The Jags will no doubt take what they learned from that game and do something differently.
Lawrence will now look to improve to 38-0 on Saturdays with a win at Kansas City, which is currently 8.5-point favorites over Jacksonville.
