Anyone else actually finds themselves caring more about the games lately. Before when watching the games,
I kind of had this feeling of no hope or expectations and I watched the games just for the sake of watching
them. Big plays, bad or good, wins, loses didn’t really illicit a good or bad emotion. It was more of, cool they
made a good play, or ahh shucks that was a crappy play.
This last stretch of games against average/good teams has changed that. My expectations are starting to
grow for this team. When a bad play occurs, I’m frustrated or angry. When a good play happens, the
excitement is incredible. More and more games are being decided by a couple of plays here and there. This
makes every play or series a must see. Before entire games or halves were just horrible, now we’re seeing
only a handful of moments of ineptness. The saying that most games are decided by a few plays here and
there is finally applicable to the Jaguars.
The record doesn’t show it, but this team has progressed. And after years of hopelessness, I finally expect
the defense to make a stop, the offense to convert that 3<sup>rd</sup> and short, to make a big play when it’s available,
and to be in the game till the end. As the team continues to mature and gain experience, my expectations
will continue to grow. I hope this team continues to meet and eventually exceed this fans expectations.
