    Bortles is one of many that this has happened to. We're an opponents backup QB's dream defense and it hurts to watch.

    I shouldn't be this guy, but I'm going to be: the refs were looking the other way on all the holding the Jags offensive line were committing. They were all but tackling the Steelers rushers. And on a few occasions, they actually did tackle the rushers.

    But it is what it is.

    The Jag offs defense at the beginning was just a hyped up as the Steelers. A reverse or flea flicker would have went a long way.

    Steelers linebackers were lost all day.

    Not sure how when Ben was thrown down it wasn't a 15 yarder.

    I still thing the D coaches were thinking and calling plays like the were hoping the offense would bail them out.

    2 4th and 1 call were just bad, whoever was making them. One was a run to the heavy side of the field with all receivers on it. SMH

    I PUT THIS LOSS MORE ON NOT MAKING ADJUSTMENTS ON THE D SIDE OF THE BALL.
