With their starter struggling and the score out of reach, the Jaguars pulled quarterback David Garrard and inserted backup quarterback Luke McCown for the fourth quarter.

Two plays from the end of the game, McCown scrambled inside the 5-yard line and fell on his right knee. The Jaguars did not know the extent of McCown's injury, but he wore a sleeve on the leg after the game.

McCown will have an MRI to determine the seriousness of the injury.

"We'll see," McCown said as a Jaguars trainer placed a black brace on his knee. "I'm not a doctor."

He tore the anterior cruciate ligament in that knee in 2006. It's unlikely this injury is the same because McCown was walking on his own power after Sunday's loss to San Diego.

Jacksonville backup quarterback Luke McCown showed his team the way to the end zone and a 19-13 preseason victory over Tampa Bay Saturday night.

Jacksonville moved the ball consistently with starter David Garrard at quarterback. But it settled for field goals on three promising drives and had its best possession of the night turned back by a goal-line interception that linebacker Barrett Ruud returned 80 yards to set up Tampa Bay’s only touchdown.

Garrard played into the third quarter and completed 24 of 31 passes for 211 yards and one interception. He completed 15 of his first 17 passes for 134 yards and was 4 of 4 in marching the Jaguars into scoring position.

McCown gave the Jaguars some relief from their frustration, throwing a 27-yard TD pass to John Matthews on his first attempt of the night to put Jacksonville up 16-13 late in the third quarter. Josh Scobee’s fourth field goal provided the final margin of victory.

The Jaguars played without running back Maurice Jones-Drew, who sat out three days of practice last week and did not make the trip to Tampa. The Pro Bowler’s agent said the fifth-year pro is not injured and that the Jaguars were holding him out of the final two preseason games for "precautionary reasons."

Jacksonville was also without all three starting linebackers — Daryl Smith, Kirk Morrison and Justin Durant. Tight end Marcedes Lewis left in the first half with a sprained ankle and did not return.

Miami Dolphins QB Chad Henne probably wishes he could play every game in Jacksonville.

Eight months after picking apart the Jaguars in the regular season, Henne did it again in a preseason game Saturday night. Henne completed 11 of 14 passes for 151 yards and two touchdowns in the first half, and the Dolphins beat the Jaguars 27-26 in a game delayed 1 hour, 45 minutes by a thunderstorm.

Although Henne was sacked on his first play Saturday - Jaguars newcomers Tyson Alualu and Aaron Kampman combined on the tackle - he rebounded and led the Dolphins (2-0) on three straight scoring drives.

Henne got Miami to the 6-yard line, but Gerald Alexander batted down his third-down pass at the goal line. The Dolphins settled for a field goal, but Henne was just getting started.

He hooked up with Anthony Fasano for a 55-yard TD play on the next possession, then found Fasano again for an 11-yard score. Fasano got a big block from receiver Brandon Marshall on the long reception. Marshall took out two defenders on the play, springing Fasano for an untouched sprint to the end zone.

Marshall finished with four catches for 65 yards. He also dropped one, giving him three in two preseason games.

Backup Chad Pennington kept Miami rolling. He found Marshall down the sideline for a 37-yard gain, then hooked up with Ronnie Brown for a 10-yard score with 37 seconds remaining in the first half. That put Miami ahead 24-12.

Jacksonville quarterback David Garrard completed six of eight passes for 79 yards and a touchdown. He hooked up with Mike Sims-Walker for 35 yards, then again for 22 more. Those helped set up Garrard's 2-yard TD pass to Mike Thomas.

It turned out to be Garrard's lone highlight.

Garrard got the wind knocked out of him on Jacksonville's next possession and didn't return.

The Jaguars scored two touchdowns in the second half. Brock Bolen caught a 3-yard pass from Luke McCown in the third quarter, then scored on a fourth-and-goal play from the 1 with about 5 minutes remaining. Fans booed when Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio called for the extra point instead of a trying a tying 2-point conversion.

Coach Jack Del Rio didn't seem concerned Friday night if the fans started a quarterback controversy.

"I don't think there is anything wrong with that," he said after the game when it was noted that Luke McCown's three-touchdown showing against the Philadelphia Eagles would get the fans focusing on the quarterbacks.

And he added that as the triggerman, David Garrard has the biggest say in whether a team can get things done.

Del Rio seemed to want to dampen that speculation Monday, especially since Garrard appears entrenched in the position as long as he stays healthy. The coach even declined to critique Garrard when he was asked how the quarterback looked on tape.
