"It was just one throw," Coen said as per SI. "I was pissed. That's emotion- it's not personal ever. That's just kind of me getting worked up. He threw a dime in the back of the end zone to make a play. I was very pleased with his competitive nature and the way he stayed calm on the sideline. He's pretty even-keeled, which is good for me. I needed that."

The Jaguars next face the Houston Texans at EverBank Stadium on Sept. 21.
