1 p.m. EST....Andrew Catalan and James Lofton on CBS...

at the EverBank Field?? in Jacksonville

Low 70s with a chance of rain..over-under at 41

 

What kind of name is 'EverBank' Field ??

Than again, what kind of name is the Los Angeles Chargers?  Nobody wants them there. They might as well be on the road with QB Phillip Rivers 173 of 286, 2028 yards, 13 TDs, 6 INTs)

mixing the pass with RB Melvin Gordon (131 carries, 526 yards).

SD coach Anthony Lynn gave his team the entire bye week off. No practices at all.

 

Jacksonville has held five teams to 10 points or less and free agent tackle Calais Campbell (who so many said was too expensive and not worth it for a team that wasnt going to contend) has 11 quarterback sacks.

  QB Blake Bortles has thrown the ball 130 times (16.3) in eight games so its hard for him to lose the game for the Jaguars/,.

IF RB Leonard Fournette (130 carries, 596 yards) can show up to practice on time he'll play after the bye week

 

With the collapse at the top of the AFC West, this is a big game for the Chargers, who have won 3 of their last 4.

I'm uncomfortable with giving the Jax boys more than 3 points here.

..Take SD with 5 and take the over

How did the Chargers blow this? I watched it and can't even figure out how. It won't get repeated but they played New York Giants last week level football as far as discipline and fundamentals. Rivers knew it to, that's why he tried to Favre it in OT. They were going to give that game away at the end 1 way or another, no matter how bizarre

IMO, after the interception by Boston, instead of running upfield, he decided to showboat, stretched his arms out wide and ran out of bounds around the 11 yard line.  The Chargers ran it 3 times, punted and gave the Jags decent field position.  Not that one play makes or breaks a game, Boston had plenty of room to run, but decided to make it about him.

That was definitely eqaually as stupid as the 90 goofs that followed. I mean I thought it was over then to, but instead they blew it and topped it every time with every goof!

Jax survives 20-17..a partially blocked FG

 

That kick should not have happened. The Jaguars had a chance to win it in the fourth quarter. I expected Jacksonville to score a TD off its fumble recovery. because of field position. Then when Philip Rivers threw his second interception I thought the Jaguars would score a TD off of it. But a win is a win and revenge is sweet.

      Would you be ok with this move?

      By ProblChld32 · Posted

      As it stands the Eagles are pretty loaded with CBs at the moment after picking up Rodgers then drafting both Quinyon and Cooper in the draft. There have been rumblings of them potentially preparing to move Bradberry. They are currently in need of another WR, so the question I pose is would you be ok with trading Alec to Philly in exchange for Bradberry? Or do you think they should let the current CBs on the roster battle it out? Keep in mind Bradberry is approaching 31 years of age.

      Wide Receivers are getting paid!

      By NFLfan · Posted

      Exactly. I wanted the Vikes to trade Jefferson. I think being careful not to overpay is important in football. I guess that is why I like Ballard. He does not jump and pay the shiniest free agent all this money. He believes in rewarding his own players.   The only reason I would pay Jefferson is because he has been in our organization and we know him. I prefer paying players who have been with the team and have been good players and good citizens (stays out of trouble, are team players, etc.)

      It is but as the guys reporting this said Pierce was the only one of the top four WRs working with special teams and not something he’s done in the past.  Like I said it’s early indication,  it can clearly change.

      Tatum is a great player but Doncic is better. Both teams basically will have a week off and should come in healthy so there really can't be any excuses for the losing team. Unless a key player gets injured during the series. I still like Dallas in 6. If I am wrong I will be here and tip my cap to you, and say I was wrong.   Regarding football, if you look my top 5 QBs of all-time, I have Brady #1 and I am a diehard Colts fan. I have Brady 1, Montana 2, Peyton 3, Mahomes 4, Unitas 5. The League MVP is the 2nd best thing a QB can win, only winning the Championship is better. So I put a lot of weight on League MVPs. Peyton is top 5 at worse just because of that alone combined with winning 2 Championships. At the end of the year, if a QB doesn't win the Championship, but wins League MVP, most say, he still at least won MVP and was the best player the whole regular season.
