Quote:You think the jaguars have more talent on defense than Seattle?
 

Quote:Can someone please compile an offensive comparison with the Broncos to illustrate our offense is better because we have better TEs, better RBs (assuming Yeldon is the real deal), and a better interior line.
Once again, who said anything about our defense being better?? You people have reading comprehension problems.
Quote:I honestly think we have the better d-line, but they far and away have the better back 7.


Agreed
If the offense can get some semblance of a run game going and keep the defense off of the field a bit longer this season - the new additions and additional experience for the young guys could push this Jags D up in the rankings pretty significantly. 

 

I can envision them going from 26th overall to somewhere around 16-18th.  For comparison - the Texans were 16th in points allowed last year. 

 

Just my opinion - but that's what I see happening. 
Quote:2014 Seahawks defense: 1st in allowed yards per game, 1st in allowed points per game


2014 Jaguars defense: 26th in allowed yards per game, 26th in allowed points per game


Magical Dante Fowler Jr. and the 2015 FAs aren't 25 spots good.
I'd like to see where we'd rank without the atrocious Henne games/not final personnel on the field, run the averages from after the Chargers game where we made our last major defensive changes and I bet we'd rank much higher

Post Chargers game:

 

343.92 YPG (13th in NFL)

21.67 PPG (13th in NFL)

 

Keep in mind on the PPG number, Bortles threw several pick sixes in his first couple games.

I fully expect this to continue or improve. To me, these numbers put the defense into real perspective. We got destroyed before we found our optimal starters and that killed the average.


Defense at least stays there and offense improves to even average and we're looking much better
Quote:Lol! I love this board after every draft! May is the ultimate month to frequently visit here.

November, ,,,, not so much.
Yeah......everybody seems to forget the other teams drafted players too.
