BOUYE RULES HIMSELF OUT

 

The Jaguars have pinned many of their recent defensive lapses on problems with communication.

 

Apparently, that’s an issue that extends off the field, too.

 

Approached by three reporters in the locker room Wednesday, cornerback A.J. Bouye politely declined to answer questions, explaining that he is not going to play Sunday at Indianapolis because of the calf injury that kept him out against Philadelphia prior to the team’s bye week.

 

Roughly 45 minutes later, coach Doug Marrone described Bouye’s status as uncertain and was surprised to be told by a reporter that the team’s Pro Bowl cornerback had already ruled himself out for the game.

 

“Did he? That’s news to me,” Marrone said. “I guess I’ll have to talk to him about that. That’s not what the trainer told me.”...

Hey Bouye, 

[Dark Superman]

I won't complain.

[Nesjan3]

Funny how much their secondary talks when they are winning. Start losing games and they start ruling themselves out!

[RollerColt]

Could be a misdirection too. Make the Colts feel comfortable that he'll be gone, and then surprise! He's on the field. 

 

Or I'm completely wrong (most likely) and the Jags are indeed falling from their one season of grace.

This game is going to let us know if our offense is legit. Hang 30 plus on

This defense and we are going places.

This defense is tough, and talented to be sure.  I think the colts have proven themselves against top defenses already.... Buffalo, Washington, and Philly are all very solid Defenses in, or around the top 10..... Will be a great test of our O, and our D is the wild-card

[CR91]

im no football expert, but im pretty sure that is the coach's call. regardless that is not something you announce if you want to keep the other team guessing

Good post. Our D needs a lot of attention in the offseason. A 43 defense needs talent on top of talent

to be effective.

He must be skeered

Yeah...but they scored a combined 37 points against WAS and PHI. The BUF game was an outlier.

 

This offense isn't close to what it could be. But I do think they will be able to hang a few TDs on the board.

that is true, but the Colts starting offensive lineup has changed a bit since those games...especially the OL.

Hey Bouye, 

He knows Luck is about to put a whipping on them, he is scared. I can't wait to see Ramsey get lit up. This is a huge game, I have faith in Andrew to get it done.

Both games were on the road, & there were some starters out. Now that the Colts are healthy  & at home, I feel like this game is very winnable.

Exactly I feel like if anything those two roadies were outliers it anything. It was early season Luck too. He seems to finding his groove. They’ve averaged 34 points per game their last 4 games, 3 being on the road.

I'd really love to see the Jags defense sucking wind on Sunday while Luck carves them up threw the air & Mack legs out 100+ yards, especially after all the trash they talked going into the season. That'd be a real treat.

Ya im not buying it either.

[NewEra]

They're imploding.fun sight to see. They have no problem bumping their guns while winning but do t seem to know how to bounce back from adversity. 

[John Waylon]

Ramsay is good enough to handle it all on his own. He’ll be the first to tell you so. 

[ColtsBlitz]

Corners this year have been something else

Yeah but the player doesn't have to play if they don't want to either he might get fined if nothing is wrong with him

[WoolMagnet]

Its a shame for their owner.  He seems like he has done everything HE could to build a winning organization out of a dumpster fire.  Not unlike what Irsay did.  They should have learned from us and started with the QB tho.

  And what is happening in Jax reaffirms my belief that Ballard is building the right way.  The locker room and chemistry matters.  Character and heart matter.  Jax has some divas, like Ramsey, that can kill a locker room fast.  It appears that Jax is crumbling from the locker room out.  They have issues, and unless they figure it out fast, their almost cinderella season last year may be a one hit wonder.

Good point.  Someone should remind him.

[Lawrence Owen]

That's so sweet of him.  And to show that i'm a good sport, i'll even things up and declare myself unavailable to be called up for a 1 game signing to play against the Jags.  There, what's more fair than that?

[WoolMagnet]

not true !!!!!

 

NOTE:  this is NOT what i typed.  I'm rather surprised you cant type  "ake-fe ews-ne"

what a world.
