Le'Veon Bell appeared pretty confident of victory prior to Sunday's divisional-round game against the Jaguars, but Round 1 ended the same way as Round 2, with Jacksonville beating the Pittsburgh Steelers in a 45-42 thriller.

Jaguars star cornerback Jalen Ramsey wasn't impressed by the Steelers' perceived overconfidence.

"I was wondering why they were so confident. We stung their ass last time," said Ramsey after the game, according to ESPN's Jeff Darlington. "... Were they mad about the disrespect? We don’t give a f--k. We really don't care."

The Jaguars' defense didn't shut down the Steelers' offense like they did in the 30-9 win in Week 5, but they produced key turnovers and stops, allowing Blake Bortles and the offense to build an early lead they never relinquished.
