The Jacksonville Jaguars came into their Week 5 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts looking to score their first win of the season. Losing has become synonymous with the franchise. After starting this season 0-4 they have lost eight of their last nine games dating back to last season. In addition, their starting quarterback is 0-9 in his last nine starts. Establishing a losing culture can get frustrating, and those emotions boiled over in their matchup with the Colts on Sunday afternoon.

Doug Pederson Responds to Report on Losing Locker Room
If the Jaguars were to drop to 0-5 on the season, their head coach Doug Pederson could officially be on the hot season. But murmurs have already suggested his seat is already lukewarm after a new report surfaced suggesting that Pederson has lost the trust of his locker room.
When asked about the report Pederson vehemently denied that was the case, noting that he talks to his players every day.
"Yeah, I would know. I talk to these guys every day. I see 'em every day and, no, I have not lost the locker room. I think these guys have done everything I've asked," Pederson said to reporters after being asked about the report.
"They continue to play and practice hard and battle, and it's a good group. It's a good group. The right leaders are in there and they know what we need to do and they're not making excuses for it, and I'm not going to make excuses; we just got to go do it."
