In terms of scoring, all nine points for Jacksonville came from field goals with a perfect success rate; their longest field goal was an impressive 49 yards.

Through the air, they completed twenty-three passes on forty-two attempts for two hundred fifteen yards but failed to find the end zone despite seven red zone opportunities.


The Chiefs' defense proved formidable as well by sacking Jacksonville's quarterback four times and limiting them to just twenty-five percent success on third-down conversions. Despite these challenges faced by their offense and special teams units performing admirably without scoring touchdowns or extra points during this matchup.
