A month after the start of the 102nd NFL season, the league has just two teams that have lost 20 games in a row. A team is two losses from matching this accomplishment. If that can be called an accomplishment.
After sort of beating the Colts in Week 1 of the 2020 season, the Jaguars are yet to win. The streak reached 18. It drops to 19 tonight, if the Jaguars lose to the Bengals on Thursday night football.
The Bengals, unsurprisingly, are favored by a touchdown. If the Bengals are successful, the Jaguars will have to beat the Titans next Sunday to avoid joining the 1942-45 Chicago Cardinals and 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers with 20 straight losses.
The Cardinals ultimately lost 29 straight games. The Bucs went 0-26 to start their existence. The Jaguars likely won’t be favored until Week 12 against the Falcons, if at all. It would be the loss that matches the team known not affectionately as the Yuccaneers.
