Quarterback

For the fourth consecutive game, Brian Hoyer threw for over 300 yards (302), and managed to keep his number of interceptions on the season at zero. Hoyer became the first quarterback to throw for over 300 yards against the Jags’ seventh-ranked pass defense this season. The eight-year veteran showed good pocket awareness, and did a good job at spreading the ball to multiple receivers. However, Hoyer did overthrow Alshon Jeffery in the end zone late in the first quarter, and missed him again in the back of the end zone later in the third quarter. A couple of touchdowns would have made that 300-yard game (and the scoreboard) look much better.
