Reply to comment by HitmanClark in The Jaguars score from a turnover to go ahead against the Titans, they will make the playoffs after starting 4-8 and being 4 games behind in the division by PodOfManyTides

This is a good assessment.

The clock isn't low enough to justify running it into a defense that is loaded up to stop the run, even if you have Henry running it.

The move is to have the qb make a quick throw that ideally will give a reciever open room to make someone miss, and maybe even a big gain. Short of that, to surprise the defense and pick up a first down so you can keep milking the clock.

Dobbs should have thrown sooner or just run it himself, or throw it away if necessary.

This isn’t a fair instance to demonstrate it, since he’s a third string QB, but the Titans have a serious QB problem heading into next year. Tannehill is extremely limited (always has been, as I’m a dolphins fan), and they don’t have the weapons to mask poor play from Willis or Dobbs.

Time to use free agency, trades, or the draft to help the qb situation.
