Hey we've watched this crap week after week for what seems like 5 years now. We knew we were in trouble going up against the 49ers who are a top 10 if not top 5 team in the NFL. Most of us fans keep a leveled head and know with a new regime in place and lack of talent that we aren't going to light it up. The nice thing about the NFL though, look at the Kansas City Chiefs, they had the exact same record as us last year and were arguably the only worse team now look at them 8-0. There are just bad teams playing good teams every week in the NFL would you have rather seen a 49-9 game (Bengals/Jets)? It's not like we don't have the opportunity to get better in a short amount of time within the next couple of years.

They weren't worse than us. They were just a circus, like Tampa Bay is this year. We are by far the worst team, but the circus might just beat us out yet again. I am with whoever said that the first tiebreaker after record and head to head should be last years record. It wouldn't be fair at all if Tampa robbed us of Teddy, just cause Schiano's a head case (and they will, of course, bounce right back to wild card birth).
Shad has a plan to capture London. The first year the team is so horrible as to be laughable, firmly cementing their status as the NFL's 44kg weaklings.
2nd year vs "America's Team" (Dallas), the Jags will again get stomped after first throwing a scare into the Cowpokes by leading at halftime.
3rd year the Jags will play a great game and lose in the final seconds.
4th year - By this time the UK fans now feel they've seen "their" Jaguars "grow up". The Jags are one of the top teams in 2016, and their visit to UK is more like a homecoming. They win a big game in London and go deep in the playoffs. Fans in the UK clamor for the Jags to move there.

You know one with a QB who can throw a spiral once in a while? A returner who can catch? A defense that doesnt just block up the middle so as soon as the opposition get outside they are off to the races?
Cmon guys, Im trying to extend the hand of friendship across the Pond here .............. :woot:
Lol You are acting like we wanted this team to be bad...
Im so so sorry you had to watch that mess....
Please continue to love the Jaguars for their....
um...
how about...
ehh..
nevermind... you can hate them. Just buy the Jerseys and Licensed NFL Apparel... Cha Ching!

I know this was your first live game...but you do realize than no one on this board has anything to do with the way the team plays, right?
We know that our team sucks...and are not happy about it in the slightest!!
We know our team sucks, as I'm sure you know your teeth resemble barbed wire.
We have a Jaguar statue outside the stadium. Fulham had Micheal Jackson.
You have hurricane winds. We have hurricane winds.
The Jags want to be your home team pen pal.
We will suffer together, stay calm and carry on.
Cheers.
What's with all this touchiness?? He's stating the bloody obvious, you geezas. Fair play, mate. Fair play.

If its any consolation, I quite like the colour combination of gold, black and teal.
Thats something isnt it?
Why not sign Tim Tebow at least the games will fun to watch for us loyal Jaguars fans even though we will still lose.

You're right. It's far more entertaining to watch lousy QB play.
Oh, wait...
Quote:... and dont get me wrong ...... Im sure you guys are lovely, perfectly fine gentlemen to have a beer with etc etc.
But boy did your team stink up the place!
....and to think we've got 3 more years of this coming to us here in London?
And although it may be the least of your worries but even I can catch a ball thats kicked to me ......... what was your returner doing???
HA !!! We get 7 games per year here. Imagine spending money on that 7x + 2x in the preseason.
Scott Van Pelt: Is 42 - 10 bad???
Ryen Russillo: It's not good!!!
UK Dave you do not have 3 more years of this garbage to watch. Next year a fine young lad by the name of Ted will probably visit Wembley and if not him we will introduce you to another southeastern USA bloke by the name of Jadeveon. We will be getting better every year you see us. Keep waving those teal flags!

I'm going to be kind and assume all UK football fans aren't as ignorant.
Perhaps it's due to the bad teeth.
I am imagining Stewie Griffin everytime I read one of your posts

Theres lots of talk over here (UK) in the press about the Jags moving over to London, but the owner denies this (but then he obviously would).
Nice to know that the UK media is just as clueless as the US national media. It's either that or they just regurgitate anything the national media in the US puts out there.

Honestly its both (but most likely the latter ...... they are quite lazy here in that respect)
Over here Sundays have become a therapy session for anger management.

You guys bring new meaning to the word jaded lol. You sound like boxers who have done 12 rounds with Ali and you just want the pain to stop.

Wild card? Everyone knows I don't play into January.
