To make it even funnier, the guy who kept bringing up was talking about Jackson telling his OC that at HALFTIME. Not from the sideline, after running a few snaps, or even a few series, and seeing what the Texans were doing.
Yeah, that's a sign of advanced processing and dissecting of the defense!

Kind of what I was saying earlier. He's definitely improved between the ears, but to say he's a savant? That's going way too far. And there's little about his advanced metrics to indicate that he's made a big leap with his efficiency.
