Trevor Lawrence’s words, “That’s a bummer,” perfectly echoed the bitter sting of defeat after the Jaguars’ Super Bowl dreams ended in a tough 27-24 Wild Card loss to the Bills. The Jags fought hard, but the quarterback’s mistakes cost them big time, and Trevor owned up to them right away.

“We had three of those [turnovers], I guess today total,” Trevor told reporters in the post-game presser. “Those add up, and those take points off the board. I talked about the one I had in the first half and got to be better and cleaner there. Some things just happen, and you got to be able to overcome them. But the reality is you take points off the board.”

Jacksonville’s own mistakes quietly shaped the game. The team had a total of three turnovers, including Trevor throwing two costly interceptions that repeatedly handed Buffalo short fields. The first came when Trevor threw a pass intended for wide receiver Parker Washington, but it got intercepted, allowing Buffalo to score a field goal and take an early 3-0 lead.

And it all culminated in the game-sealing interception by Trevor late in the contest. The quarterback knows these mistakes will long be talked about by fans in Jacksonville, especially after coming so close to pulling off the upset.

“These games are going to be one-score games, and you’re going to need them at the end,” he added. “So I wish we played cleaner in certain areas. I wish I made one or two decisions a little bit differently. Threw a better ball here or there. You got to live with it. It’s life. You can’t get do-overs. So, that’s a bummer.”

Trevor wrapped up the night by completing 18 of 30 passes for 207 yards and three touchdowns. This playoff loss now makes Trevor’s postseason record 1-2 as the Jaguars’ starting quarterback. But for Josh Allen and the Bills, this win marked a historical milestone.

Buffalo snapped its 0-5 record on the road in the playoffs under head coach Sean McDermott, a huge breakthrough after years of heartbreak. What’s more interesting is that the losing streak started right there in Jacksonville back in 2017. Allen gave his thoughts about the victory.

“Just trusting everybody on the field,” Allen said postgame. “Great win, great team win. All we’ve got to do is play our game, find a way to win a football game. We’re on to the next.”
