So they try to manufacture rushing yards with the bottom half of the playbook because absolutely none of the basic plays in the first half can work. The team is entirely one dimensional and every defense they play knows it. It's a fatal flaw for this year and we've achieved about all we can with this group for the season.

When you understand that this coach is going to be aggressive in every situation you'll understand why you don't grasp what they are doing.

Agree with you on the first point.

With regards to point #2, I'm fully aware that this coaching staff is going to be ultra-aggressive as they have shown since taking up the reigns of this franchise. And that's where my issue partly lies with them, there are times where we are way too aggressive for our own good and it comes back to bite us later in the game. I get that the narrative would be different if we convert on those playcalls - but my main issue is something like what we witnessed today with that reverse play.

I don't think it's an "aggressive" play call per se, I just think that play was not the right call to make there period given how the game was playing out. Like you said in your first point, I think that reverse was more so a matter of the coaches trying to manufacture a semblance of a run play there but a reverse on 2nd and long right on the fringe of scoring territory didn't make sense to me.

But that's just me explaining my thoughts viewing the play as it occurred as a Jaguars fan and not a coach on the sidelines I guess.
