Lions vs. Jaguars 2012 reaction: More questions as Jacksonville looks outmatched against Detroit

Big Cat Country does not look kindly upon the Jaguars’ latest loss, to the Lions.

After a scoreless first quarter, Mikel Leshoure and the Detroit Lions ran all over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the second quarter and beyond, once again raising concerns in Jacksonville.

Over at Big Cat Country, the bloggers were quick to call like they saw it, “embarrass[ing].”

The Jaguars looked utterly out-matched and were embarrassed for a fourth time, as they lost 31-14 to the Detroit Lions.

Hopes were raised in Jacksonville after the Jaguars' offense came alive against the Green Bay Packers in a loss last weekend, but that hope was undone as the Jaguars suffered their seventh loss in eight games to drop to 1-7. Unable to hold on to the ball for much longer than few plays, the Jaguars were at a severe disadvantage in time of possession right from the get go.

The offense looked anything but strong as they were unable to get a single first down in the first three drives and allowed the Lions to have nearly a quarter’s worth of possession more than them in the first half.

With quarterback Blaine Gabbert unable to connect with his targets, the bloggers knew a comeback was not in the cards on Sunday.

Any semblance of a comeback for the Jaguars was quelled in the third quarter as Blaine Gabbert threw two interceptions. The first was a deep attempt to Justin Blackmon that was overthrown and not fought for by Blackmon, while the second was off the hands of Rashad Jennings.
