    Big Bens first game was in Baltimore and will finish there.

    You bet your butt hair ball wants to end bens career on a L and also will do anything to prevent Watt getting a sack. Forget draft, I want a W and sack record bad lol


    This is a playoff game to me now

    Who knows.

    I heard Trevor Lawrence has been watching a lot of Cobra Kai lately. A shirtless Trevor Lawrence was spotted on TMZ, sprinting down a beach in Jacksonville, while singing Eye of the Tiger.

    I like the Jaguars in this one 19-16 over the Colts.

    The Steelers beat the Ravens and make the actual playoffs.

    I think you meant "single-elimination tournament."

    It’s crazy, but something tells me Hairball wants to win more than any single achievements.

    I never counted that as his first game but you are right. He came in the second half if I recall. His real first game to me was in a hurricane delayed game in Miami. That was his first start.

    I think the Steelers beat the Ravens but the Colts are going to destroy the Jags.

    Taylor may run for 800 yards in this one.

    The sad thing is, I doubt the Jags even make the game interesting enough to give us hope.

    So, some want to get rid of the head coach, blow up the coaching staff, fire the GM and lose a bunch of games so you can get better draft picks?
    Careful what you wish for,

    They missed their window because they didn’t have a QB. For a while they were having great drafts, their time was when Myles Jack was on the team, that was a good squad.

    It’s why I don’t agree with passing on drafting a QB, that has to be the first piece, not the last, because of how long it can take to find one.

    The other way, you put the talent in place before getting the QB, then you lose that talent to FA, retirement or injury while searching for the QB.

    A franchise QB is for 15 years, better window of putting the talent around him.

    1st if Your window is only one year ....it's not a window it's a lucky season. 2nd Jacksonvilles problems was everyone wanted out. If that team Hadn't imploded, and most left they could Have got a good Qb.
    Respectfully ...Your way You don't know if the kid is any good, and by the time You get a team around Him ....his confidence is shot, and it's time 2 pay Him.
    Kind of Like Jacksonville is right now.

    The Browns thought they drafted a franchise QB in Tim Couch. However, without a line to protect him, he became jittery in the pocket and heard footsteps in his sleep. Same thing happened in Houston with David Carr. We have to sure up that O-line before drafting a QB. Let alone a upgraded O-line will keep Najee healthy.

    I hope it's not his last game. I hope his last game is in February. ;)

    Yeah. Not realistic. But I can hope.

    Those guys just weren’t any good.

    They can draft a QB (or bring in a vet) while working on the line at the same time.

    In the 15-17 range I’m not sure what QB would even be left to draft by then so it may be moot.

    It wasnt a one year window but that’s my point. You want to build the perfect team then go find a QB and hope all those moving parts are still in place by the time you get the right guy under center. Sure, may work if you get lucky and hit on the first one but what if they don’t.

    Doesn’t it make more sense to only have to keep 1 guy in place then the rest of the team? Plus as I said, a franchise QB will be there for 15 years. It’s the better plan.

    I'm not sure how playoffs would shakeout, but it would be nice to get another crack at the Bengals.

    That would be crushing for them if we ended their season early.

    I disagree. The worst-case scenario has the Steelers and Colts both winning. In that instance, the Steelers miss the playoffs and get the worst possible draft pick.

    That Viking loss and Detroit tie are going to show their face like Medusa just like I knew they would.
