Does anyone currently live there or have an opinion of it. Flying there Friday to meet with a company and they will most likely want me to move there. Been in Charlotte for about 10 years now. Never thought I would want to move but money talks.

I was born there & lived there most of my young life. I grew up on the Westside, it's not a place I'd want to move back to and raise my child. I had a difficult childhood living there. Lots of bad things happening.

Some parts of town are nice such as the Southside, Deerwood is especially nice, as is Mandarin, and Baymeadows. There are good things about Jacksonville but I just cant think of any right now.

You might want to consider the surrounding cities. St. Augustine, Callahan, Middleburg, Orange Park, Baldwin, Green Cove Springs, etc...

OK. Thrilled about the possibility now. Thanks.

It's a lot better than it was before the NFL arrived. It's the second biggest city in the country, area wise, but not sure it's even third in Florida, population wise. There are a lot of great golf courses to the south, Orlando's not THAT far away, and you're safe from the hurricanes.

But it's nothing like the other Florida cities, as Zod said.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
