PLAYERS: Cecil Shorts,  Justin Blackmon,  Jason Babin
TEAMS: Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jaguars (2-12) traveled to Miami to take on the Dolphins (6-8) and their performance did not disappoint, if you expected to see horrendous, practically unwatchable football. It was a boring, ugly and downright tough game to watch. There were obvious mistakes, penalties and a lack of competitiveness throughout the course of the game.

But that is all. What about the moral victories? Not a chance. They scored 3 points in 60 minutes.

Justin Blackmon caught six balls for 93 yards in the Jaguars’ Week 15 loss to the Dolphins. Blackmon would have had an even bigger day if backup OT Guy Whimper didn’t cost Blackmon a 27-yard touchdown when Whimper failed to report as eligible.
