I would also say the Jags defense played really well for about 3 quarter against the Titans but the offense was anemic.

Have you ever been on a 7.5ish hour flight?  If so, did you do things differently on your next 7.5ish hour flight because of how you felt when you got to your destination?  Now add that you're in a physical competition against some of the best athletes in the world, some of whom have made the same trip 4 times before.  Maybe the Ravens were just as prepared and the Jags were just that much better on the day.

Regardless, your question was already answered in my original post if you would have taken the time to digest what you read.  I didn't excuse anything.  I said the current sample size given the circumstances isn't big enough to assume we're who this board generally thinks we are this week, especially considering where this board was mentally as a whole 7 days ago based on the previous performance.  

We should crush the Jets right?  What happens for you if the game is in question late in the 4th against the team everyone was sure was tanking for the number one overall pick?  If we do crush them, what does that really tell you against a team everyone believes is set up to tank? (we know the players on the field aren't trying to lose)  I need the win this weekend and I need to see how they do against Pittsburgh, a perennial playoff team, in their bulding.  That shouldn't be a controversial take.
