  1. Some of you people are unbelievable! Hey pacolts - nothing in writing to keep the Jags in Jax? How about a lease that runs through 2029 & a $100 million penalty for breaking it...Until this season, you guys were so spoiled. How quickly you all forget that before Manning came along, the Colts couldn't give tickets away & were in the conversation for moving to L.A. too. I'm glad that GM Gene Smith got an extension. Bill Polian thinks highly of him, if that means anything. We've gone from 28th total defense last year to 4th right now. The Jags just need some guys who don't drop half the balls thrown their way & we'd have 3 more wins right now. This is my 5th year with season tickets & I'm excited for the future.

  2. There is no way we lose this game. Too much pride in our locker room, too much freeney and mathis, sprinkle in some Painter and you have keys to a victory. Jags hate Freeney / Mathis (always play them tough). So anyway, yea, Colts win this one pretty easily.......Vinatieri with 4 to 5 field goals.

    More like too much Poz and Pot Roast, sprinkle in some Gabbert and you have keys to a victory...Scobee with 4 or 5 field goals might be more accurate. Jaguars defense is playoff caliber. Ranked #5 in the league right now. In the past 5 weeks, the Jags have played the top 4 ranked defenses in the league. The Jags are not gonna blow up in the 2nd half of the season, but they should win this game.

  3. I'm talking about McCown getting lucky. He made some okay passes, but MJD ran the offense, and if the defense played badly they would have lost. Don't compare McCown's one game to Garrard many. Garrard had a game with 4 TDs, I do compare Luke to that no. He had an okay game, but they need a real stater.

    Garrard had a game with 4 INT's too! That's my point. He'd have a game with a passer rating over 120 & then have a game with a passer rating of 68. He averaged out into the 80's or 90's, but Garrard was always either really good or really bad. The "real starter" they need is Gabbert. And like I said before, if there had been mini-camp & OTA's, he'd probably be the starter now. He'll have a Pro Bowl RB, a Pro Bowl TE & Mike Thomas is a good receiver, but they need more weapons. That's why I said I thought they were a year away from really challenging. But the Jags ought to be competitive. Curious to see what our defense can do against the Jets. Two of our new defensive players were Jets last year. But there's just no way that the Jags are going to be one of the worst teams. They are an improving team. Even if they hover around .500 again, this is an improving roster. Only 10 players on our 53 man roster were on this squad 4 years ago. GM Gene Smith has totally turned the roster over.

  4. Don't go gaga over one game. He made quick short passes, and your offense was pretty much run by MJD. David Garrard is better than McCown, and like you said CJ was held to 24 yards. Lucky win...

    Lucky win, my foot. There is no luck in holding CJ2K to only 24 yards. That's solid defense. McCown also made some nice middle throws for 15-20 yards as well. I'm not going gaga, but McCown played well. Like I said the other day, I'm not saying McCown is a world-beater, but he put up the same stats that Garrard often did. You said we lost something in cutting Garrard. I'm saying that they're pretty much the same guy.

  5. Your starting QB is Luke McCown, you lost your starting receiver. You coach sucks, your defense is and will always be bad, and your O-line is mediocre at best. 4-12

    McCown played well today. Did what he had to do to get the win. Passer rating over 90, 17 of 24 for 175. Our defense held Chris Johnson to 24 yards. We might end up 4-12, but right now we're 1-0.

  6. Sims-Walker's stats for 29 games? Great, but he was on the team for 3 or 4 seasons - that's at least 48 games. And he played in 29. The best ability is AVAILABILITY. Monroe was benched for a couple of games when he was a rookie - that was 2 seasons ago. Meester is old? So is Jeff Saturday. The Jags' O-line is better than the Colts. Only Manning's quick release covered it up. And I'm not saying McCown is a world-beater. I'm saying that replacing one average QB for another doesn't make the Jags a worse team. Because of the 3 post per day rule, this is my last post for the day. I will be at the Jags game tomorrow & if McCown stinks up the joint tomorrow, I will be back to say he stunk up the joint. If he plays well, come back & admit that. He's just keeping the seat warm until the coaches think Gabbert is ready anyway. If there had been an offseason, we'd be talking about the rookie starting. My honest opinion is that the Jags are really a year away from being able to really challenge, that being the 4th year since Gene Smith tore up the roster. But we were competitive last year with a bad defense and there's no reason to think we can't be competitive this year with a revamped D...

    Good luck to the Colts tomorrow. You're gonna need it.

  7. Your starting QB is Luke McCown, you lost your starting receiver. You coach sucks, your defense is and will always be bad, and your O-line is mediocre at best. 4-12

    I only have 2 more posts until tomorrow, so I can't go back & forth with you, unfortunately. If McCown hadn't gotten hurt last year, he very well could have taken Garrard's job. Week 2 against the Chargers, Garrard threw 4 picks & got benched. McCown came in, moved the ball, scored some points & then blew out his knee so Garrard had to come back in. Mike Sims-Walker wasn't that great. "your defense is and will always be bad" just goes to show that you don't know what you're talking about. 4 or 5 years ago, the Jags had a top defense. They're gonna build it back up. They got old & slow, now they're younger & faster. Will always be bad, huh? We'll see. We had the 3rd best rushing attack in the NFL last season, but our O-line is mediocre? Get back to me when you get a clue.

  8. So a Jaguars team that challenged for the division until the last month of the season last year is suddenly one of the worse teams in the league? Sorry, just don't see it. We had one of the worse defenses in the league last season & still won 8 games. Then we added Pozlusny (can't spell his name)& Sessions at LB to go with Darryl Smith, added Matt Roth at DE, added Landry from the Ravens at safety, added Coleman from the Jets at nickelback...Geez, don't you think the Jags might be a LITTLE better on defense now? For years on this board, Colts fans said Garrard just wasn't that good. Now he's gone & we're gonna get worse? If I'm wrong, I'll be back to say I was wrong, but until we're out of the running, I think the Jags are going to be an improving team.

  9. :jags:

    Not surprised by the move, but I'm shocked by the timing. We'll see how McCown plays...If he hadn't blown out his knee last season, he very well could have taken Garrard's job last year. Garrard was benched against the Chargers after throwing 4 picks. Garrard had to go back in after McCown tore his ACL after leading the Jags to a score & moved the ball well.
