This column was neglected last week for a lot of reasons. I was tired, the Jacksonville Jaguars didn’t do much on offense in terms of sustained drives, and more.
But not this week. This week we had Blake Bortles and THE DRIVE to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers.
It was the middle of the fourth quarter, the Steelers had just scored, and the Jaguars led 35-28. In a shootout, Bortles & Co. needed points. They needed to answer. And boy did they.
Leonard Fournette isn’t getting much. The Steelers are playing the run and they’re making zero excuses about it.
