THE READ
Jaguars win the turnover battle and the game
Jaguars won the turnover battle, and the turnover battle won the game. Trevor Lawrence did the damage for Jaguars — 8/15, 228 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT. Ty Simpson threw for Browns — 20/33, 256 yards, 1 INT — in a losing effort. Bhayshul Tuten is 82 overall and sits 5 in the league in rushing yards. Somebody undervalued him. Through the air: Browns 256, Jaguars 228.

THE WIDER PICTURE
| Team | SRS | SOS | MARGIN | TO +/- |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Browns | +5.1 | +0.4 | +4.8 | +11 |
| Jaguars | +8.0 | -1.9 | +9.9 | +14 |
SRS is how many points a side beats an
average team by once you account for who they played — beat a good
team by 3 and it counts for more than beating a bad one by 20.
SOS is how hard that schedule has been.
Full table.
IN THE BOOTH
Sierra Vaughn
Analyst
Cleveland out-gained Jacksonville by 15 yards and threw for 28 more, but the Browns gave it away 3 times to Jacksonville's 1—a turnover margin that translates to a 9-point swing—and that's all Jacksonville needed to win by 14.

Jacksonville won the efficiency battle on the ground and didn't beat itself—Cleveland threw 3 interceptions and still moved the ball better, which tells you everything about how much those giveaways cost them.
They only ever read the box score and this league's own numbers —
none of them has a source, and none of them can report anything that
did not happen.

Counted from the weeks each man actually held his team — so a franchise that changed hands is not credited to whoever has it now. Nothing above is a playcall: the export does not carry those, and neither does this.

Only meetings Sapphire can attribute to both men are counted — a Madden export never says who owned a team last season, so the series starts where the record does.

Bold is the side that won that line. Giveaways come off a team's own offensive rows and takeaways off its own defensive rows — two separate payloads, so they need not tie out against each other.
