Rams (-10.5), Chargers (+3.5) and Jaguars (+1.5) highlight Nick Wright's Wild Card Picks | First Things First
Nick Wright looks to keep up his hot streak with his Wild Card picks for all six games after ending the regular season as a champion over Danny Parkins.
The Jacksonville Jaguars had a chance to go up seven points in the second quarter against the Buffalo Bills in their AFC wild-card round matchup on Sunday.
Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence took a snap on 4th-and-2 and ran to his left. He tried to reach for the marker and officials initially ruled that he got enough for a first down. But the Bills challenged the spot of the ball and a replay showed that Lawrence was down well short.

Jacksonville ended the drive with zero points. The Bills scored on their following drive to take a 10-7 lead.
Super Bowl champion T.J. Ward took issue with the play-call on fourth down instead of trying to take the points.

"They keep your momentum going! And when you fail the attempt on 4th down, you give the other team a tremendous momentum boost. Football is not rocket science."

Lawrence was 9-of-15 for 88 yards and a touchdown pass to Brian Thomas Jr. He had 29 rushing yards on three carries.
