Behind Trevor Lawrence's 4 TDs, Jags end Broncos' winning streak

Trevor Lawrence threw three touchdown passes and ran for another as the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars beat Denver 34-20 on Sunday, ending the Broncos' 11-game winning streak.

Lawrence finished 23-for-36 passing for 279 yards for Jacksonville (11-4), which has won six straight. Parker Washington had a career-high 145 yards receiving, including a score, and Brenton Strong and Travis Etienne also caught TD passes for the Jaguars.

Bo Nix was 28-for-47 passing for a career-high 352 yards and a score, RJ Harvey rushed for 50 yards and a touchdown, and Courtland Sutton had 86 yards receiving with a TD catch for Denver (12-3), which lost for the first time since Sept. 21.

Broncos receiver Pat Bryant was taken off the field on a cart after a hard pass breakup with 31 seconds left.

Denver's defense had five sacks and leads the NFL with 63, just nine behind the 1984 Chicago Bears for the most in NFL history.

The Broncos trailed 17-10 at halftime but quickly tied it when Harvey scored on a 38-yard TD run less than two minutes into the third quarter. Jacksonville, which aided Denver's drive with two defensive penalties, went back ahead on Lawrence's 1-yard scoring run with 7:44 left in the third.

The Jaguars then forced a punt and Lawrence threw his third TD pass of the game, this one to Etienne from 10 yards out, to make it 31-17 with 3:56 to play in the third. Cam Little kicked a 26-yard field goal after Emmanuel Ogbah recovered a Nix fumble at Denver's 34. Will Lutz answered with a 21-yarder to make it 34-20 with 10:44 remaining.

Jarrian Jones intercepted a fourth-down pass on the Broncos' next possession.

Lawrence gave the Jaguars a 7-0 lead on a 12-yard TD pass from Lawrence to Washington with seven seconds left in the first quarter. Denver answered on its next possession, going 65 yards on five plays, capped by Nix's 15-yard touchdown strike to Sutton.

Lutz kicked a 54-yard field goal to put the Broncos ahead 10-7 but Lawrence gave Jacksonville the lead with a 3-yard touchdown pass to Strange with 4:33 left in the second quarter. Little's 47-yard field goal as time expired gave the seven-point halftime lead.
