Agree, but being in a garbage division doesn't hurt our chances - particularly when the best QB couldn't make the playoffs, the next team has a broken QB, and the division champion has no QB.

 

I'm sure that's a big factor in his reasoning.

"Well the O is going to really good next season. The Defense is the big question"

This team is like my golf swing.  Fix one thing, and something else goes wrong.

Was just about to post this.
Quote:W/o saying,  the start of the 2017 regular seasons is eons away.   But as a read,  here's GIl Brandt's take at present about the chances of the eight 4th place teams from the 2016 season to win their respective divisions in the 2017 season:

2) Jacksonville Jaguars (AFC South)
Jacksonville has young talent, especially on its sixth-ranked defense, and the fourth overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. The Jags are also in the eminently winnable AFC South. Will they hire a coach who can pull the right strings with Blake Bortles? I feel optimistic about the young quarterback heading into next season, despite his struggles in 2016, because of my knowledge of him personally. While he obviously has to cut down on picks, he's a guy who works and has ability, arm strength and smarts. The Jaguars would be well-served to bring back offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett in some capacity.

thats a very bad sign. that means jags will hire a loser as the next HC,and have another loseing season. Jags are better team without presure of high expectations.
Hearing this the last couple years is very frustrating! ! However Raiders fans probably thought the same thing last year ( not including their last 2 games, for obvious reasons).
