JACKSONVILLE – This was dominance, homecoming style.

The Jaguars' impressive, one-sided division victory Sunday had a new fashion flair, too – and further widened their division lead.

Quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw three touchdowns, with running back Bhayshul Tuten breaking out and the defense dominating throughout a 42-7 victory over the Indianapolis Colts on a damp, gray day at EverBank Stadium Sunday.

The Jaguars (5-2), debuting their "Rivalry" uniforms, took a 28-0 halftime lead on a day on which they extended their lead in the AFC South to three games over the idle Houston Texans (2-5).

The Colts (2-6) lost a fourth consecutive game.

Lawrence threw first-half touchdown passes to wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. and tight end Nate Boerkircher, with Tuten breaking away for a long touchdown run late in the first half and safety Rayuan Lane scoring on a length-of-the-field interception return for a touchdown just before halftime.

The Jaguars rushed for a season-best 183 yards, with running back Chris Rodriguez's third-quarter touchdown run pushing the lead to 35-0 early in the third quarter.

Tuten rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries, and also turned a screen pass into a touchdown as the third quarter expired for a 42-7 Jaguars lead.

The Jaguars were playing at EverBank Stadium for the first time since a September 27 victory over the New England Patriots. They will play their next three games on the road before a November 29 home game against the Tennessee Titans.

The Jaguars extended their home winning streak over the Colts to 12, with 11 of those victories in Jacksonville. The Colts last won in Jacksonville in 2014.

They also extended their regular-season winning streak in Jacksonville to seven games, with all seven victories by 17 or more points.

Lawrence, who left the game early in the fourth quarter, completed 10 of 14 passes for 210 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions.

Colts quarterback Daniel Jones completed 19 of 28 passes for 144 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions, with Colts All-Pro running back Jonathan Taylor rushing for 23 yards on eight carries.

The Jaguars registered four sacks Sunday – one by defensive end Travon Walker, a shared one by defensive end Josh Hines-Allen/defensive tackle Arik Armstead, one by safety Jalen Huskey and one by linebacker Foye Oluokun.

They also forced three turnovers – Lane's interception, a fumble recovery by rookie defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr. and a second-half interception by linebacker Branson Combs.

• Boerkircher's 31-yard reception from Lawrence capped a four-play, 50-yard drive for a 14-0 Jaguars lead with 7:14 remaining in the second quarter; defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr. recovered a Colts fumble at the 50-yard line to start the drive. Tuten's 39-yard, tackle-breaking touchdown capped a seven-play, 80-yard drive for a 21-0 lead with 1:50 remaining, with Lane's 92-yard interception return giving the Jaguars a 28-0 lead with :10 remaining in the half.

Tuten's 25-yard pass from Lawrence on the final play of the third quarter made it 42-7.

Notable: Safety Antonio Johnson was among six Jaguars inactive players Sunday. He was ruled out Friday after sustaining an ankle injury in a Week 6 loss to the Houston Texans. Long snapper Ross Matiscik and cornerback Montaric Brown played Sunday, with Matiscik missing the Texans loss with a shoulder injury and Brown missed that game with a hamstring injury. Also inactive for the Jaguars Sunday: rookie wide receiver CJ Williams, rookie defensive tackle Albert Regis, rookie defensive end Wesley Williams, linebacker Jamal Hill and cornerback Alijah Huzzie.
