This tack victory wasn't as much about your O-line as you like to believe. This loss was on the Jags inability to put together an offense with the craptastic Blake Bortles. Defense can only play so hard, for so long before getting gassed. If the offense can't keep the D off the field, it will catch up to ya later in the game. That is what you witnessed second half.

This is being missed a bit in all the hooplah of back and forth banter.

Sure the tacks OL is better than the tinhorns. We still got a sack and got pressure multiple times. And while they busted some big runs toward the end, for the majority of the game neither offense was moving.

Jags inept offense was the story of the day. Not some big bad showing from the tacks OL.

Yeah OK......I love smack but this OL owned that DL. The front four did not sniff Mariota. Baldinger's Twitter and the Shaun O'Hara's column on NFL.com laugh at your opinion. TN OL is why this team has turned around. Our OT's are STUDS.

I'm not one of the folks diminishing the tack's O-Line here, but Mariota did throw that pick to Telvin Smith with Malik Jackson right in his face.  I'd say that's "sniffing."  They also chased him out of the pocket 4 or 5 times.  

Nonetheless - the Jags D didn't pressure the QB enough and the tack's line protected and blocked well overall.

It was. He looked better in the third quarter when your OC started scheming some mismatches and getting Walker involved. 

And looking back -- I'm mis-remembering Jackson's pressure.  It was on a third down incompletion.  Not that INT play.

Does anybody think Derrick Henry runs like a linebacker?

I like the other run better where Henry comes off the corner and throws his shoulder into Ramsey.

We learned in the Sunday School who made the sun shine through.  I know who made the moonshine too, back where I come from.

I read parts of the Shaun O'Hara article. Did you notice the Tacks are not #1 in his OL rankings? Not to take anything away from them, but they aren't better than two other lines.

Yes, I also like to talk smack - if the other person knows what he is talking about.
