Garrard gets it done at crunch time
Posted by GameSetMatch on 16th November 2009
They are the drives that define quarterbacks’ careers. David Garrard defined himself with a clutch, 80-yard, game-winning drive that consumed the final five minutes of the game and left the Jets helpless to do anything more than surrender.
“David won the game. That’s what good quarterbacks do. You give them the ball and they make you pay,” coach Jack Del Rio said.
Garrard made the Jets pay in the final minutes of a half in which the Jaguars offense was largely ineffective. When the Jets scored the go-ahead touchdown with 5:04 to play and the Jaguars began their final drive at their 17-yard line, the circumstances looked favorable for the home team.
“Their pressures were getting to us. They were bringing it, plain and simple. We just had to weather the storm. It came down to that last drive. That’s why you play this game,” Garrard said.
