Week 6 didn't go the way the Jacksonville Jaguars expected or hoped. They failed to keep their win streak going against the Seattle Seahawks, losing 20-12 for the first time after three straight victories to drop to 4-2 in the 2025 NFL season. It was also their first defeat at home this year.

Not only were they defeated, but this was an uncharacteristic game in a variety of ways for the Jaguars under Head Coach Liam Coen. The offensive line was dominated by Seattle after a very encouraging first four weeks. As a result, Jacksonville was unable to run the ball at all, tallying just 59 total yards on 19 carries, including a putrid 2.3 average per attempt from Travis Etienne Jr.

The Jaguars got another discouraging first in this one, with their defense coming up with zero takeaways on the Seahawks. Coen's squad didn't play like themselves in Week 6, and it led to a highly disappointing loss.

Jaguars just couldn't come up with big plays

Quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw 42 times in this game, but only finished with 258 yards. He had a few chunk connections with Brian Thomas Jr., including one for a score, and another 26-yard touchdown strike to Tim Patrick, but most of his completions were for small gains.

The Seattle Seahawks, on the other hand, got almost all of their offense on big plays. Sam Darnold had two different passes go for 61 yards each, one to Jaxon Smith-Njigba and one to tight end AJ Barner. The other key difference-maker in this loss for the Jacksonville Jaguars was the separation between each team's ability to get after the quarterback.
