Usually thhis is the time of year the team is well out of playoff contenders and the fans are arguing who the team is going to pick with it's top 5 pick. This year not only are the jags in the race to take the division, they could be a force if they do get into the playoffs.  Wow feels good this year.
No it's not. In the past we have still been in playoff contention in November or even December. We have had seasons when our playoff chances were between slim and none, but the board had plenty of threads about "how we can make the playoffs" until we were officially eliminated. I am not nearsighted and actually remember the JDR era.
The. Worst.

Think about how bad Gus and company were in September and October. I can’t fond the exact records but boy was it bad.

All early season hype was quickly lost. I hope the Jags take this momentum into the 2nd half of the season and really whoop up on the below average competition.

That does not mean anything if you don't write a full sentence.
It looks like these Jags have a good group of mature players who have a lot of pride in their performance. Even down to the rookies. It maybe because they see Khan finally showing the $$$

It is Coughlin and Marrone.

Gus went 14-48 as head coach. Playoff contention? ugh

Hey, just admit you were totally schooled by the Jdub. Next time you'll remember that being 4-3 and tied for first is exactly the same thing as being 1-6 and needing seven teams to lose five straight while winning five straight.

You're well on your way to a -1000.

This IS different.

Very different.

Jaguars football doesn't resemble the "up at dawn, pride swallowing siege" it did during the last years of Gene Smith and then the entirety of the Gus era.

Now..there is hope...excitement.

Legitimate reason for hope.

I never said anything like that. Because we are 4-3 and tied for the division lead, we obviously do not need to win the rest of our games and help seven teams will lose to get in.

-201 is going the opposite direction.

It is Coughlin and Marrone.

Agreed. Mr. Khan has always been willing to spend in order to win and Win Now. Coughlin is on a mission and while doing so, he's showing Caldwell and Marrone just how it's done.

NH3...

Mathematically in previous seasons? Yes!!! Realistically?  Not a snowballs chance in hell! 

Different feel to it, right now.
