The Jacksonville Jaguars did the Pittsburgh Steelers a big favor on Sunday, and Pittsburgh said thank you in the most 2020s way possible: with a meme.
The Jags beat the Indianapolis Colts 26-11 in a Week 18 stunner, preventing the 9-8 Colts from making the playoffs. Pittsburgh beat Baltimore 16-13 in overtime on the road to improve to 9-7-1, which is good enough to be alive to reach the postseason.
The Steelers’ Twitter account thanked the Jags afterwards. They used the Jags’ “#DUUUVAL” hashtag. Then they used a meme from “Thor: Ragnarok” where Hela was replaced by the Colts logo.
Thank you, @Jaguars!! #DUUUVAL pic.twitter.com/2WAKX0YdOx

If the Steelers indeed qualify for the postseason (so long as the Raiders-Chargers game doesn’t end in a tie), they wouldn’t have been able to do it without the help of Jacksonville. The best part is the win didn’t even prevent the Jags from locking up the No. 1 draft pick. It was a win-win for everyone. Well, everyone except the Colts.
