Based on the Jaguars being as bad as they've usually been, there can only be one reason why five ESPN analysts expect them to beat the Panthers. These guys are haters.

NO ONE should ever pick the Jaguars to win their first game of the season. Why would you? Well, when you're playing the Panthers, a team that, because of it's QB, is one ESPN will never expect to take care of its business, that's an opportunity to assume the Jaguars will surprise.

So again, as bad as Jacksonville is year after year, you should just pick them to lose until they win, and all of them would've if they weren't playing the Panthers.

Its going to be a tough game for both teams so i understand why some of these morons like Jaworski are picking the Jags.  But i also know that to a man, every idiot pictured in that chart has not seen more than 10 plays of Panthers football this preseason.  So I attribute their picks to flat ignorance.

When you are picking between two teams that you don't respect, you take the home team almost by default.  I don't think these guys hate the Panthers, they just don't think we're as good as we think we are.

Good point.  I'm not surprised by the lack of confidence towards our team right now.  If I were not a Panthers fan and just going by what I heard in the media re: KB being out for the season and Philly's drops etc., I'd probably vote for the home team too.

Hopefully we'll earn respect as the season goes on as we prove our competence by our wins. 

Sure some DO seem to really love to rag on the Panthers (some of the really nasty comments about JR and our organization of late show that.)  But I think there are a lot of others who respect Ron & G'man and want to see our team do well.  No we're not the flashy media darlings, but I think there are many more analysts & fans than we realize who want to see us succeed because we've got some guys they know make the NFL a better sport and whom people can really respect.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
