The special wideouts of the Jaguars were supposed to be the key to happiness for Jaguars fans this season but unfortunately they have underperformed at times. Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns, and Marqise Lee have had some head scratching moments this season but in Week 10, they all flashed some great ability.

Allen Robinson finally looked like he was in a groove with young quarterback Blake Bortles. Robinson hauled in a season-high nine receptions for 107 yards and an extremely impressive touchdown grab. A-Rob would have probably finished the game with more yards if he Bortles could fix some timing issues. Their connection has been far from perfect this season – and I mean really far – but it is still great to see him crack 100 yards for the first time this year.

Both Allen Hurns and Marqise Lee flashed big play ability yesterday as well, they both had chances to haul in touchdowns on deep balls but unfortunately the accuracy was not there from Bortles. It’s exciting to see their ability to run crisp routes that fake out defenders and create big play opportunities for an offense that desperately needs it.

Next: Could a Roster overhaul be in the future?

I hope after reading my Three Positives from yesterday’s loss you can find a way to look on the bright side. In no way am I condoning the poor play of this team, it’s clear that changes need to be made but if you can’t find a reason to be happy about this team then why would you watch them?
