Trevor Lawrence’s playoff debut couldn’t have started any worse.

On Lawrence’s very first bypass he threw an interception. On the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 2nd possession, Lawrence tossed every other select. The Jaguars quarterback threw 4 interceptions inside the first half, along with 3 within the first region. The Jaguars had been down 27-zero late in the 2nd region and trailed 27-7 at halftime after committing 5 overall turnovers in the first two quarters.

But it changed into a tale of two halves.

Lawrence and the Jaguars showed terrific resilience within the second half. Lawrence tallied 211 passing yards and 3 touchdowns after halftime, and the Jaguars protection held the Chargers to just 3 factors in the 2nd half as Jacksonville bowled over Los Angeles 31-30 to boost to the divisional round of the playoffs.

Jacksonville’s 27-point comeback became the 1/3 biggest in NFL postseason records. Consequently, it was also the Chargers’ biggest blown lead.
