I am in the business world now brother.  Been for 10+ years and I am no football expert.  But I know enough of what defensive schemes have a higher probability to work against different situations and play-calling tendencies.  It is clear you do not.  But I will try to add some remedial knowledge for you occasionally.  

The play was called because the Titans knew what defense the Jags would be in. They know the defense sucks and it was designed to attack Jack's zone. Taven was just there so Jack didn't have to try to cover 4 players.

Go watch the all 22 shots and see there was no chance of stopping it unless Jack guess correctly to who the ball will be thrown. Any action made leaves at least 1 other player open in the end zone.

Dude.... you obviously have no idea about the tactical aspects of Cover 2 red zone defense.  You need to watch it again. Jack is not supposed to "guess", he is supposed to read his keys and do his job... Football 101.  The safety was all over the WR breaking in. The corner has flat responsibility (the back). Jack's responsibility clearly was the hook-curl zone.  The ball was caught in the hook-curl zone.  It was Jack's play to make and he didn't make it.  End of story.  Even the idiot announcer in the clip says this.  Taven is just a disrupter on this play... it makes no difference to the other 7 guys responsibilities in coverage whether he drops or rushes. If the Titans knew the defense the Jags would be in, a draw would have been a better call than a pass against a 3 man rush with 8 man coverage in the red zone.  The defensive call was solid, the execution was not.  To say otherwise shows your ignorance for the tactical aspects of the game. Its really embarrassing how little you guys know about red zone Cover 2 D and yet, still try to argue about it. I mean, I even gave you a link to a remedial article to go read.
