Why are they even a team? I’m pretty confident if you did a count they would have the least amount of fans in the NFL.

And those fans are broke. My company has 50 branches across the country and the one that struggles by far the most despite having an excellent GM is the Jacksonville branch. The median household income there is one of the lowest in the country for any major media market and Jax has to compete for team loyalty with 2 other FL franchises, one of which is defending SB champs.

Don't get me wrong, I thought hiring Meyer was a dumb move on the part of Jacksonville.  I am not a fan of hiring college coaches for NFL teams, especially when they come from big programs where he main path to success is recruiting well. 

But they had a bad team last year, and added a rookie qb this year.  They would likely be 0-4 regardless of who the coach is.  

Ya the two things the NFL seem to have in short supply these days is good coaches and kickers.

Long story short, I was adopted & knew it since I can remember.

My mom's dad (a member of the 761st in WWII btw) had a friend/neighbor who was a member of the 332nd in WWII. Yes the Tuskegee Airmen.

I started randomly "adopting" people when I was about 5 & granddad died a year later. Mr./Cpt. J took over granddad duties whenever I was up there, he didn't have to, but did out if love & respect, so its in honor of him.

 

That's cool.  I was in the 332nd Air Expeditionary Group while deployed in Iraq with the A10s from the 23rd Fighter Group before Pope AFB closed.

This. I always wondered why Jacksonville. It's literally like giving Fayetteville a football team.

My company sells a product I almost guarantee you'd recognize. I've mentioned my role in the company before in other posts so for reasons of privacy I won't get more specific than that, but it's something you'd put on your home.

So you're not the guy who keeps trying to get in touch with me about my car's extended warranty? 🤔

      Evero?!?! Should he be on the Hot Seat

      By CRA · Posted

      Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.

      I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.

      give some props to Andy Dalton

      By NorthTryon · Posted

      I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
