Myles Jack savagely mocked the Steelers during first half blowout (Video)
By Josh Hill
Jacksonville absolutely mauled Pittsburgh on Sunday, and Myles Jack threw up the best taunt of the afternoon.
On the first defensive touchdown of the game for the Jaguars, Telvin Smith was flagged for taunting the Steelers on his way to the end zone. The best taunt of that entire sequence went unflagged, but was broadcast live and in color thanks to Myles Jack.
As the rest of his team ran to the endzone to celebrate with Smith, Jack threw up the ol’ forehead ‘L’, punctuating what was an absolute domination of the Steelers in the first half.

It might seem juvenile, but the Jaguars essentially pants’d the Steelers on national television during a 28-point first half. Blake Bortles was useless, but a combination of Leonard Fournette and the Jaguars defense helped vault the team out to what felt like an insurmountable lead.
A lot was made about how the Jaguars blowing out the Steelers the last time they played happened a few months ago. It turns out that while the game might have happened a while back, the confidence and swagger that the Jacksonville defense has didn’t go anywhere. If anything, it only grew.
Roethlisberger posted a pair of turnovers, the offense allowed the defense to score points, and nothing went right. They say you don’t have the same dream twice, but the nightmare Pittsburgh lived through again certainly seems to be rearing back into the conscious mind.
