The climax of the match came when Lawrence, after being knocked down, got up and, instead of throwing the ball, found the space to run towards the end zone. This action, described as “goofy” by coach Liam Coen, sealed the Jaguars’ victory with only 23 seconds remaining on the clock.
It was a crazy ending, but it was a crucial moment for him, showing that he wasn’t going to give up.

Lawrence, who had a complicated start to the season, demonstrated his ability to lead the team and turn the Jaguars into a contender in the AFC. The quarterback completed 18 of 25 passes for 221 yards, a touchdown, and an interception.“It was a funny ending, but what a tough moment for him to be able to say he wasn’t going to lose”, said Jaguars coach Liam Coen, about Trevor Lawrence’s touchdown.
Lawrence himself admitted to having “panicked” during the play, but his instinct led him to the touchdown that secured the victory.
In addition to his outstanding aerial performance, Lawrence led the team in rushing yards with 54 yards on 10 carries, including a 10-yard touchdown. His two rushing touchdowns against the Chiefs equaled his total in the first four seasons.
Receiver Travis Hunter praised Lawrence’s mentality, highlighting his ability to overcome adversity and keep the team focused.
With this victory, the Jaguars are at the top of the AFC, sharing the record with the Buffalo Bills and Indianapolis Colts, and proving that they are a team to be reckoned with in the fight for the championship.“We have to go week by week and obviously we believe we are a good team, so we believe in that”, said Lawrence.
