JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Jaguars have a championship celebration planned for their regular-season finale, and they’re finally willing to talk about it.

Hats. T-shirts. Maybe even a cigar or two.

The streaking Jaguars (12-4) can wrap up the AFC South Division title with a home win against the last-place Tennessee Titans (3-13) on Sunday at EverBank Stadium. Jacksonville, which has won seven consecutive games, is a 13 1/2-point favorite against the Titans.

The Jaguars have an all-time record of 11-0 when favored by 12 or more points, and they didn’t have as much on the line — a division title and a home game in the NFL playoffs — in any of those previous matchups. So after maintaining a “go 1-0 this week” mantra all season, first-year head coach Liam Coen and the Jaguars are embracing the stakes of this matchup.

“The message to the players was going 1-0 this week and, yeah, there’s a hat and a T-shirt that comes along with that,” Coen said.
