For the sake of "we're getting closer" perspective:  You know what would have sealed a victory for the Jags today IMO?   

 

A year of NFL experience for Blake and an above average free safety.  Those aren't our only needs, but I think that would have done it.  Those two things take away a pick 6 by Bortles and 3 big plays from the Steelers.  Maybe even adding a pick for the Jags. 

No doubt.

 

To be honest, that game was ours to be had.  Even with how critical I am with the 4-3 we run, we still got pressure on Party Boy when we needed it, even causing a fumble in the red zone.

 

Bortles looked like a rookie today in critical spots.  But honestly, the plays that were called for the most part were really good.  On the pick 6, I'd have liked to see him recognize how many defenders were on that half of the field that he threw it, but I think it's something he'll figure out.

 

I'll have to keep my eye more on our FS situation next week.  I'm not sure if it's what you're saying or whether it's because our CB's give up so much space in certain downs and distances that don't make sense.  I don't know, there's just so many issues going on with the LB's and the Secondary that it's hard to figure out what's wrong, besides just throwing my hands up and saying we just stink on defense.
