Trevor Lawrence reaches inspiring career milestone in Jaguars' win vs. Patriots

The Jacksonville Jaguars' dominant performance against the New England Patriots revealed a lot about the former's ability to bounce back from a tough loss. While that was great to see, Trevor Lawrence's individual poise and consistency throughout the day were a breath of fresh air.

There was once a time when Lawrence was the quarterback making everyone throw up surrender cobras in the first quarter instead of young bucks like Drake Maye. It took him a while to get over the hump, but The Prince Who Was Promised has turned into the gunslinger who is definitely going to end up holding all of the franchise's records for passing and total touchdowns when it's all said and done.

Huh? What do you mean I need to hold my horses?

Trevor Lawrence broke a Jaguars franchise record vs. the Patriots and inched even closer to another

Dear reader, do you think my impregnable objectivity could be tainted by mere sentimentality and the tears of crestfallen Boston radio hosts? I'm going off the record books as they currently stand!

As of September 27, 2026, Trevor Lawrence has thrown the second-most passing touchdowns in Jaguars history. He took down Blake Bortles (DA BOAT) to get the job done, but that wasn't the only thing he accomplished during his latest performance at Everbank Stadium.

Despite being a great sportsman and stopping himself from scoring his fourth touchdown of the day, Lawrence still found a way to make some history with the three tuddies he lobbed up. Gus Logue, a content creator who frequently covers the Jags in the local area, tweeted out that No. 16 now has the most games with 3 or more passing touchdowns in Jaguars history.

Lawrence finally passing Mark Brunell in this category is a jaw-dropper since Brunell started 117 regular-season games for the franchise and went under center for eight different postseason contests. In contrast, the Jaguars' first No.1 overall pick in team history has only played in 83 matchups combined.

Now, the first counterpoint a skilled historian would offer is that Brunell, a three-time Pro Bowler, played in a completely different era. The defenses were tougher, and it was way harder to find offensive success in the AFC Central than it is in today's AFC South.

With that very strong argument in mind, I'd like to point out that Trevor Lawrence is one of 23 quarterbacks to start a game for the Jacksonville Jaguars since Brunell left the organization in 2003. All of those ready, willing, and not-so-able players tried (and failed) to stake their claim to the team's passing offense and lead the franchise to its next golden era.

So, while you may be a bit apprehensive to accept that the Cartersville High School grad is on his way to becoming the best QB to ever wear a teal jersey, his quest towards one more record should give you enough time to accept things for what they are.

Trevor Lawrence is closing in on becoming the Jaguars' all-time passing leader

In today's NFL, a breakout MVP campaign from a signal caller in the middle of his prime could be enough to usurp the Jaguars' ultimate passing crown.

Through the first three weeks of the 2026 season, Lawrence has passed for seven touchdowns and two interceptions. He did so against the defending AFC Champions, the team that lost to the Patriots in the AFC title game, and a team that's, surprisingly, tied for the lead in the AFC North.

The Jags have a tough slate of opponents coming up, and it's fair to say that Lawrence having a few more explosive days at the office is the only way they'll have a shot to beat them. That alone will get the emerging superstar over the 12 TD barrier for sure; but we also have to think about the opportunities he'll get against his colleagues in the struggling AFC South.

As of now, the Indianapolis Colts are the only other team in the division with a win, and that happened because they played the Houston Texans in a pitiful "The O Must Go" affair. Houston and the Tennessee Titans are a combined 0-6 to start the season, which means there's some unraveling that's due to happen in those locker rooms.

Lawrence and the Jags can take advantage of that bickering and light up the scoreboards while chasing another AFC South title and playing teams like the New York Giants in between.

Obviously, T-Law won't be able to break Brunell's record this season, but Shad Khan should be scheduling the confetti and hors d'oeuvres as soon as the clock hits zero against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 18. Come to think of it, Tony Boselli may want to start figuring out the team's budget for comp tickets and round-trip flights while we're at it.
