Super Bowl champ criticizes Jaguars' decision-making in crucial spot vs Bills

The Jacksonville Jaguars had a chance to go up seven points in the second quarter against the Buffalo Bills in their AFC wild-card round matchup on Sunday.

Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence took a snap on 4th-and-2 and ran to his left. He tried to reach for the marker and officials initially ruled that he got enough for a first down. But the Bills challenged the spot of the ball and a replay showed that Lawrence was down well short.

Jacksonville ended the drive with zero points. The Bills scored on their following drive to take a 10-7 lead.

Super Bowl champion T.J. Ward took issue with the play-call on fourth down instead of trying to take the points.

"I’m so sick of these coaches going for it on 4th down," Ward wrote on X. "Take the points. The points are more than just points.

"They keep your momentum going! And when you fail the attempt on 4th down, you give the other team a tremendous momentum boost. Football is not rocket science."

Jacksonville rushed down the field from its own 1-yard line and was able to get a field-goal attempt from 54 yards out before halftime. Cam Little missed the kick just a bit to his left.

Lawrence was 9-of-15 for 88 yards and a touchdown pass to Brian Thomas Jr. He had 29 rushing yards on three carries.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen entered the locker room with 129 passing yards and 12 rushing yards. He scored for the Bills on the ground.

Kristi Noem fires back at Dems amid impeachment threat over fatal Minneapolis ICE shooting

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem fired back at Democrats on Sunday amid an Illinois lawmaker's push to impeach her following a deadly Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) shooting in Minneapolis last week.

"These law enforcement officers are trained to be in situations that are dangerous, and they rely on that training each and every day to make the right decisions," Noem said during "Sunday Morning Futures."

"That's what I'm so grateful for is that we have professionals that stepped up and took an oath to serve this country. The American people support them in that."

Noem also blasted Democrats for allegedly using the death of Renee Nicole Good — who was fatally shot by an ICE officer after accelerating a vehicle toward him last week — to divide the country and push an agenda she says would undermine freedoms and liberties.

CHAD WOLF, COOPER SMITH: MAYOR FREY, ICE IS NOT 'SOWING CHAOS.' YOU ARE. PLEASE RESIGN

"It's really, really horrific that we have elected officials that are using this as an opportunity to divide, using this to promote an agenda that fundamentally would take away our freedoms and our liberties in this country," she said. 

"And Governor Walz's corruption has been exposed," she continued, referencing the Minnesota fraud scandal that has also dominated recent headlines. 

"He's being held accountable to it, so he's trying to divert the attention away from him and his failed leadership."

Noem added that the Trump administration will continue its work arresting and holding criminals to account.

Rep. Robin Kelly, D-Ill., announced plans to impeach Noem last week, calling the Trump official an "incompetent leader" and a "disgrace to our democracy."

"I am impeaching her for obstruction of justice, violation of public trust, and self-dealing," Kelly said in a Jan. 7 press release.

"Secretary Noem wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area, and now, her rogue ICE agents have unleashed that same destruction in Minneapolis, fatally shooting Renee Nicole Good," Kelly said.

"From Chicago to Charlotte to Los Angeles to Minneapolis, Secretary Noem is violating the Constitution while ruining — and ending — lives, and separating families. It’s one thing to be incompetent and dangerous, but it’s impeachable to break the rule of law. I told my constituents and Chicagoans that I would fight against Secretary Noem’s agenda. This is me fighting back."
