Happy Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I'll bet Tomlin will never win another SB. He's just not a smart coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a first there ends it, while saving the timeouts buys a liiiiitle bit of flexibility in exchange for just a couple seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived In Jax for a while and watched them a lot. Tyrod not good but Bortles is terrible. He had a solid game but let’s not get carried away. Nah, I'm good with what I said. He's not good. He's a better game manager who can step up when needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't have got to the 2 minute warning...average run takes 5 seconds and it was at 2:18...they would have had 2:07 or 2:08 on 3rd down...if they threw incomplete the Steelers would have the ball with one play before the 2 minute warning Edited January 14, 2018 by matter2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livinginthepast Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 You have to give credit to the Jags they have been clutch all day today. Big plays, big responses, they have gone toe to toe in a slug fest with a more experienced team with a 2time SB winner at QB. I disrespected them a lot before the Bills game but they have proved me wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite Poster Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Jags going to AFC championship by making good FA acquisitions, hopefully we do the same. Probably not though. More Zay Jones type guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Still like the onside kick. Terrible kick though. Goes 10 yards and you get an extra shot at a possession and the 10 yards Jax would have needed to kick a fg loses the game on a deep kick anyway.

If I was coaching, I wouldn't call an onside kick there in a million years. Kick it deep and call your time outs before the 2 minute warning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John in Jax Posted January 14, 2018 Author Share Posted January 14, 2018 They showed an interesting stat in the pre-game show...when Ben throws for a lot of yards in Steelers playoff games, they always lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 All of this probably would not have been necessary if Pitt just picked up the 1st down on 4th and 1 earlier this half, rather than going for the big chunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevewin Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) Jacksonville is going to get absolutely raped up in NE - and not just by the refs. Jax D is so elite they gave up 400+ yds passing. Can't stand that NE** basically gets a double bye into the SB.

BillsFan4 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Well, now maybe the Bills defense will get more credit for holding Fournette and Jax's offense in check all game... Also, Doug Marrone definitely deserves his due credit, but I still can't help but think when I watch Jacksonville play that this really looks like a prototypical Tom Coughlin coached team.
