NASHVILLE, Tennessee (Ticker) -- Steve McNair already has taught Byron Leftwich one lesson this season. On Sunday, he will look to give the rookie another when the Tennessee Titans battle the Jacksonville Jaguars.
McNair had his way with the Jaguars in the Titans' 27-21 victory at Jacksonville on October 26. He outplayed Leftwich, completing 21-of-27 passes for 187 yards and a touchdown.
Tennessee extended its winning streak over Jacksonville to four games and has won nine of the last 11 meetings between the teams, including the 1999 AFC Championship game.
McNair is a big part of that success, completing 64.4 percent of his passes for 2,633 yards and 16 touchdowns in 12 career games against the Jaguars.
Enjoying an MVP-type season, McNair leads the NFL with a 105.1 quarterback rating. He has completed 65.1 percent (151-of-232) of his passes for 1,978 yards and 13 touchdowns with three interceptions.
Eddie George also was a big part of the Titans' win in Jacksonville, rushing for 88 yards and two touchdowns.
Meanwhile, Leftwich struggled in the first contest. He went 15-of-27 for 158 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions and lost a fumble being pulled in the fourth quarter.
Last week, McNair continued his big season by completing 17-of-23 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns in a 31-7 dismantling of Miami.
Tennessee has won four straight and scored at least 30 points in six straight games, tying Indianapolis atop the AFC South.
The Titans are 4-0 at home, and have won nine straight at the Coliseum, dating to last season.
Last week, the Jaguars did the Titans a favor with a surprising 28-23 win over the Colts. Fred Taylor rushed for 152 yards and two touchdowns. His second TD was a 32-yard run with just over a minute remaining.
Leftwich also had an effective game, passing for 179 yards and a touchdown as the Jaguars stopped a three-game losing streak.
