We walked into the stadium expecting another loss, and there were a few times the Jags looked like they were trying to give it away. The fourth quarter was disastrous, but still, the Jags held on.
Trevor played better but he's still not seeing the entire field. That pass to BJT in TRIPLE coverage was simply bad. Just bad. However, his touch seemed to be back and he hit some long and tight shots. Tank is coming into his own. That dude was juking some ankle breakers. The offensive line continues to improve. They did a good job of keeping Trevor protected but their run blocking isn't where it needs to be.
As a bonus, it didn't rain much during the game and even held off until about 20 minutes after the game. Then it came down in buckets.

Twenty [BLEEP] four points in the final quarter alone. 2 of those scoring drives only took a combined 1 minute and 20ish seconds off the clock, resulting in 14 points.
Thankfully the Offense and Special Teams came to play today.
If we managed to lose that there should have been pandemonium afterwards.
It was always the Jaguars.
This team has so much talent in so many areas. The Secondary has holes in it. But the LB corps holds up. And Buster Brown is Johnny on the Spot in key situations to get the D off the field.
Should this have been a blow out? Yeah, it should have been. But this win feels important to me. The entire team gave no [BLEEP]. Mistakes were made throughout the team. But the team held.
That's the type of game you want to see. On to London!!!

Play calls were for the most part communicated in plenty of time. There were a few occurances of them being a bit late, but not many. This allowed the pass protection and blocking assignments to be set up and TL to eyeball the defense. IMPROVED
The pass protection was acceptable and TL should not have much to complain about. He did seem to be more calm in the pocket. As the game went on and he wasn't running for his life he began to go through his progressions. IMPROVED
The one interception TL threw looked to be a planned 50-50 ball. Their was one guy deep who had no chance at the ball and of course one shallow who picked it off. This occurred for 2 reasons. First, the ball was about a foot short and a foot inside. Second our reciever made no attempt to break this up. From where I sat it appeared he had every chance to do this, a year from now he will.
The run blocking was maybe a little better. The defense is still jamming the point of attack, but their penetration was down. I believe there is a "tell" being keyed on by defenses on runs and play actions. It may be as simple as how TL holds the ball when he is going to hand off. If you subtract Tank's big run we averaged less than 3 yards a run. Honorable mention, we executed a QB sneak properly.
Defense an up and down proposition all day. It is useless to complain about why the refs think it is ok for a tackle to put an arm bar across a rushers neck when beaten so I won't. Maybe that is acually legal, someone will correct me.
Special teams played great. A run back, a game winning FG. Heck punter averaged 51 yds a punt.
PS to top it off after a 30 year dry spell I caught a shirt between the 1st and second quarter. What could be better? Well, I caught another one between the 3rd and 4th !!
The main reason was Colt who made the INT jumped the route because he was able to follow Trevor's eyes. He was supposed to be covering Davis.

Let him keep building his confidence. Then in January, when we need 3 to get into the playoffs, he'll dead center a 65 yarder against the clots.

It’s going to be nice when he gets back. Then maybe he and miller could play together. That’s 2 game wrecking missiles right there. It’s great to see a win. I’m about to be in a good mood all week.
So then what do we do with our former 1st and 3rd round pick?

Lloyd is better than Miller he'll be playing.

Play them. Have you seen the way Nielsen substitutes his players? It feels good to finally have great depth at a position. It's like a foreign language around here that some don't understand being It's very rare for the Jags to have such a thing.
I wonder if Myles cole will see anymore snaps
