Known Thine Enemy

You're definitely not talking about the Jaguars. In this thread you've mentioned Titans, Haynesworth, and the fact that you just watched a sack on Rivers (who plays for San Diego for the record...it is getting a little murky in here).

I know, in between talking about the Jaguars, I got distracted and drifted to the Titans...try managing an 18 month old that is sick and an wired up 7 year old while responding to football posts. It gets convoluted. Regardless, both teams are one gap teams.

The Jags obviously DON'T use their D-linemen to occupy 2 O-linemen to free up their linebackers. If you watched the game yesterday, you saw Jags D-linemen making all the tackles on the Steelers RB's...even on the straight "dive" runs inside the tackles.

Their D-linemen are too good to waste playing a 2-gap. Hell, I often wish we'd stop playing 2-gap since our D-line is comparable with the Jags.

True 2 gap linemen are actually more skilled and rarer than one gap types. The on gappers are smalled and faster (except the one tech).
