The Jacksonville Jaguars got the last word over the Pittsburgh Steelers, and they made no secret of that after their 45-42 playoff win.
Cornerback Jalen Ramsey made clear that he thought the margin of victory ultimately flattered Pittsburgh, and that they should have been on the receiving end of a much bigger beating.

Ramsey has a point. Jacksonville spent much of the game up by at least two scores, and a good number of Pittsburgh’s fourth quarter points came late on as they tried to recover the deficit and make things interesting. Jacksonville probably should have been up 28-7 at halftime, but gave up a long fourth down touchdown that gave Pittsburgh some momentum.
It is abundantly clear that the Jaguars didn’t think much of the talk coming from Pittsburgh during the week. They’re really reveling in this one.
