The Jaguars elected to go for two and the win, but Leonard Fournette came up inches short of crossing the goal line. This followed Gardner Minshew's admirable first NFL career start skillfully orchestrating what would have been a game-tying drive with minutes to play.
In just under an hour on a First Coast News Facebook poll, over 1,000 fans chimed in with 69 percent agreeing with teams decision to go for it all on the road. The rest liked the message the team was sending to the rest of the league.
- "Heck no Minchew had a momentum going it should have been put in his hands if that was the plan to go for the 2 point conversion." - Shirley Dedmon
- "Great job by Minshew!! Not a fan of the call rather the tie and overtime!" - Tammy Bowen
- "The call took the heat off Minshew. Now everybody call yell at Fournette for the week." - Paul Mcauthor
- "I do. Reason why I agree. We need to start showing to these other teams that we are not afraid to go after it. Yes we lost but we have to show The Jags that we are true fans. Win or lose let's fight till the end. 💙🖤💙🖤 ." - Paula Pope
