Something I forgot to comment on:
There were, of course, a lot of comments about the Jags defense being physical, and rightfully so.
But I also saw a lot of chickenshit stuff like laying on our guys with their full weight after a tackle and digging with their hands/arms/elbows (i.e., "giving them the business").
That was the reason Daktari came to defend Jones and for all the 'chippyness' after the plays ended.
I love clean, legit physical contact. And that's the way I want to see our guys play.
But that other bush league crap doesn't belong in the game.
According to pff, total pressures vs. Jax
Gary: 7
Z: 5
P.Smith: 4
MVS running thru the tackler and gaining 4 extra yards was very nice to see
I have complained about Gary, but he gives extraordinary effort
In a league of terrible officiating, that crew stood out as extra awful, fortunately it helped us in many ways-phantom holds and downfield blocks

I thought that was Irvin gettin the business. He also left the game for good shortly after that, not sure if that play was the reason.
