The Jaguars in one-score games

The Jaguars are 0–1 in one-score games in 2026 so far, after 6–3 in 2025. Replayed with the same day’s form, they win 0.4 of those 1. Since 2019: 21–37 in 58 one-score games, 22.6 wins in replays.

A good record in close games looks like clutch. It rarely lasts: from 2019 to 2025, a team’s win rate in one-score games carried into the next season at a correlation of 0.12, against 0.39 for its overall record. How often a team wins those games in replays says what its play was worth.
