Jonathan Taylor powered the Indianapolis Colts to a thrilling 26-23 overtime victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars, rushing for 177 yards and a crucial touchdown. His performance included a remarkable segment of six consecutive carries totaling 33 yards, which set up Matt Gay's decisive 38-yard field goal. This win marked a positive close to the Colts' season, allowing Taylor to finish on a high with four consecutive 100-yard games and six rushing touchdowns overall.
Joe Flacco, in what might be his final game of a prestigious 17-year career, completed 23 of 40 passes for 263 yards, including a touchdown to Alec Pierce. The Colts finished the season at 8-9, winning their last two home games but ultimately missing the playoffs for the fourth straight year. In contrast, the Jaguars ended their season with a disappointing 4-13 record, indicating possible changes ahead in management and coaching for the offseason.
