Rashad Greene's big return latest example of importance of punting game

The Jaguars have been conducting a clinic on the importance of the punting game.

A fourth-quarter punt has played a critical role in deciding the team’s last three games.

Two muffs led to touchdowns — one muff by the Jaguars in the loss to the New Jets and the one they recovered against the Baltimore Ravens — and then rookie Rashad Greene returned a punt 63 yards to set up the game-winning touchdown Thursday night in the 19-13 victory over the Tennessee Titans.

In the Jets game, Nick Marshall’s muff was recovered by New York’s Kellen Davis on the Jaguars’ 25 with 3:37 left in the game.
