    <h3>With division lead in sight, Jaguars host Bills</h3>

    JACKSONVILLE, Florida (Ticker) -- The Jacksonville Jaguarsare back in title contention in the AFC South.


    Buoyed by a pair of back-to-back victories, the Jaguars host theBuffalo Bills on Sunday.


    Jacksonville is within a game of Indianapolis for the divisionlead and last week welcomed back quarterback David Garrard, whoreturned from a three-game absence to direct a 24-17 victoryover the San Diego Chargers.


    Garrard is the only quarterback in the league not to have thrownan interception. He completed 15-of-24 passes for 189 yardsand two touchdowns against San Diego.


    While the Jaguars still have rugged road tests at Indianapolisand Pittsburgh, their remaining home schedule could not beeasier.


    Aside from the Bills, Jacksonville also hosts Carolina andOakland - three opponents with a combined 11-19 record.

    Garrard, who has thrown eight TD passes, has a passer ratinghigher than 100 in five of his seven starts.


    "David played well," Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio said. "He cameoff the three-week break with the ankle very sharp and made someplays down the field and protected the ball."


    Fred Taylor rushed for 85 yards, while Jacksonville's defenselimited 2006 Most Valuable Player LaDainian Tomlinson to 62yards on 16 carries.


    Buffalo, meanwhile, will be looking to bounce back from a 56-10thrashing at the hands of the New England Patriots.

    It was the Bills' worse defeat in team history, surpassing a43-0 defeat to the Baltimore Colts on October 10, 1971.

    "We have to put it behind us to move on," safety Donte Whitnersaid. "We play Jacksonville next week. We're 5-5 right now. Wehave an opportunity to go up to Jacksonville and win a footballgame, now that's our focus.


    "We're going to put this game behind us. We're going to go inand watch this game tomorrow, it's going to be painful."

    The loss also snapped a four-game winning streak for the Bills,who watched the Patriots score touchdowns on their first sevenpossessions.


    Quarterback J.P. Losman finished 15-of-26 for 173 yards with oneTD and one interception. He was sacked four times.

    Buffalo again may be without rookie running back Marshawn Lynch,who sat out last week's game with an ankle injury.
