Been incredibly busy! But alas, time off...so here we go!
This game was a nailbiter...Big Ben proved to be a devastating adversary against the Jacksonville secondary as did Le'Veon Bell to the Jacksonville front 7. Despite that, Bortles kept them in the game (a brief injury scare definitely worried me) and, with a few KEY stops, Jacksonville was able to force an overtime, where a punt that pinned Pittsburgh on their own 6 left the door open for a game winning sack from LB Dekoda Watson!
