Talking Jaguars - Stats and Thoughts

The Denver game was an anomaly for him with 225 rush yards with an 80+ yard run. 
 

his other games were 66 47 and 66. Not saying he couldn’t do damage against us but he has not looked good minus the Denver game which skewed his stat line. Go to the jags forum and read up on what they’re saying. 

And actually, in the game before the Denver game, he has something like 20 carries for minus 5 yards before he busted out a 69 yard run at the end of the game.  So he was completely bottled up the entire game, and busted one long run at the end of the game.  Other than that he would have actually had negative yardage for the whole game.

I forget when, I tend to block out bad games from my memory.  But I remember when some "average" RB ended up gashing our defense for big runs consistently and all the sudden it appeared we could not fight our way out of a wet paper bag.  One game can totally change our perspective due to the unexpected, negative or positive.

This week the Carolina Panthers host the Jacksonville Jaguars in a 90s throwback NFL expansion battle. 

Here is how these teams rank across the league.

Notes:

Most concerning here is Sacksonvilles ability to get to the QB. Tied for 6th in the league is no joke. Let us hope Kyle Allen has quickly remedied his fumblitis. 

On the other hand, there should be opportunity for the Panthers to pass the ball especially considering Jalen Ramsey's heart may not be fully in the game.

Both CMC and Fournette are having good years. Well, CMC is having a MVP year. Fournette is no slouch though.

How do you see this game playing out?

Better indicators are Points per Play scored and Points per Play Allowed. The Panthers average offensive output of 23.8 points doesn't align with the other stats indicating that they likely run less plays on offense than the average NFL team, given the rankings in other statistical categories.

The Jaguars aren't a consistently good run team. Before Fournette busted out a 60 yard run two weeks ago his 20 carries or so had negative yards. The other two games he was like under 70 and Minshew's INT came off of Fournette's hands. He went off against Denver. That is it.

Suffocate Fournette and make Minshew beat us with constant pressure. Defensively, don't throw at Jalen Ramsey and try to keep things quick and simple for Allen. CMC needs the ball in space and it's going to be tough sledding simply running between the tackles. Outside of JR their secondary hasn't played particularly well.

If I'm the Jags I'd trade JR and use both first round picks on secondary players.

    • I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan 
    • Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.
    • I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
