He stepped up at the end. 

TD.

Strip Sack

Big pressure with QB hit.

 

Burns has never done that in crunch time.

You do realize he was 20 yards away from the QB when he fumbled it .. 

Yes, right place , right time. But to imply his defensive positioning was planned is a bit a stretch .  He didn’t know the QB would fumble ..  an interception, I’d give him all the credit..  it wasn’t though

You realize he could have whiffed on the recovery? He could have tripped.

On the next possession he had a strip sack and QB hit.

 

That's the point. I'll go back and look at the two games referenced but I don't think Burns has made 3 huge plays in crunch time in back to back possessions.

A year ago, one of the worst teams in the league...

Today? In the playoffs as a division winner.

Coaching matters

Amazing what hiring a former QB turned Super Bowl level coach (Pederson) did for Jacksonville. Wouldn't it be something if we could hire someone like that? 😉

Back to back plays but he still has like half the sacks Burns does on the year. Consistency is huge for players. Burns is probably wishing he could have a game lined up against Daley the whole time.

Barely limping into the playoffs as the winner of an awful division…I thought we were against that here lol. I do genuinely wonder if Jags fans are upset about getting in or if that’s a uniquely Huddle thing.

    • That's a very incorrect statement right off the bat, coaches get fired for winning ugly all the time.  Every coach of a playoff team that then gets fired, got fired because they won ugly and didn't improve their players enough to win in the postseason. Guys like Andy Reid have been fired for "winning ugly" like you said, because they kept winning in spite of the improvement of their players. Also, "this is a fanbase starved for wins" is a statement I also don't agree with, I'm not "starved for wins", I'm "starved for a winning and contending franchise" which are two VERY different things. If the team and fans just want to win some games, then that's a loser mentality, sorry, but it is.  We should want to contend, not win a handful of games.  Every time this comes up I point back to the Lions the last 5 years or so.  They were losing games but improving every week while doing so a few years back.  THAT is how you improve as a franchise and move the needle towards contending, not winning games ugly.
    • Good lord. I don’t think I have ever seen a hole that open. 
    • this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games that run counter to vast work......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues.
