Jacksonville Jaguars Fan Forums

Awesome move by the organization. 

https://www.firstcoastnews.com/mobile/ar.../581261212

As an out of market fan in Nashville, I'm extremely appreciative even though it's only preseason. Awesome move, thank you to the organization!

EDIT: Actually I might have to retract my statement, lol. After reading the article it says, "The live stream will be accessible to fans in the UK, Mexico and affiliate markets in Jacksonville, Orlando, Daytona, Savannah and Gainesville."

So I guess that means I won't be able to take advantage of the games? Unfortunate if true.

Great move for out of state or traveling fans.

(Shameless plug) If in the area and want to see in person I have two seats in section 114 I can’t use.

Yeah I didn't see that either. That kind of sucks for us out of state guys

Does  "For the first time in franchise history, Jaguars fans in select markets can ditch their TVs" sound a lot like somebody wants to torpedo his own television market size figures?

Moving game(s) to London has done NOTHING to help Jacksonville. In fact, stealing home games away from Jacksonville robs Jacksonville of positive economic impact. Such positive impact was ALWAYS the FULL expectation of ANY potential NFL franchise owner. An NFL owner in Jacksonville MUST acknowledge he is part of a business deal - the same kind of economic boon OTHER NFL cities don't seem to have a problem sustaining without sacrificing most of their downtown real estate.

Is there ANYBODY in town that doubts the sustained GROWTH Jacksonville has made since 1995? Jacksonville is NOW ---- THE 12th largest city in the United States of America. How on earth can we still be considered to be the lowest television market?

The present Jacksonville Jaguars owner would be much wiser to buy 700,000 flat screen televisions and distribute them around town. 

Obviously, telling Jacksonville citizens to ditch their televisions relates to driving television market share DOWN DOWN DOWN.

London Jaguars is just a step or two away.

Oh, I pretty much wrote the Jaguars off when Wayne Weaver sold them to Khan. 

You can see how terrific the team is WITHOUT Khan and Co. running the football side. Imagine how much BETTER it will be for Jacksonville WITHOUT Khan and Co. constantly tearing away the Jaguars at the franchise roots.

Yup, ready for a new owner. Khan is a laughingstock. Pretty much.

Okay.

Meth is a terrible thing.

Wow. A perfect example of 1 + 1 = 7

1+1 = acute psychosis ?

As per usual. Statistics are being twisted. 

Jacksonville is the 12th largest “city” because it’s a consolidated city county. However it’s total market is therefore not as big as you would be led to believe due to  the overall metropolitan area being smaller because of said consolidation. 

Tampa, while only having a few hundred thousand people in city limits (small compared to Jax) it’s overall market is quite larger because of surrounding suburbs, cities, etc. for example, there’s thousands of people in Brandon, which is ten minutes from downtown on a good day, and even colloquially referred to as Tampa, but is technically not counted as Tampa city population. 

Stop your rambling. It’s almost comical at this point

yea I got real excited for a second and then nope. Guess I still wont be able to see any preseason games this year.

The federal OMB determines population. They also draw the lines placing limitations upon what is a "metropolitan statistical area" and/or "Combined Statistical Area" (CSA).

Palm Coast is 61 miles from Jacksonville. Palm Coast is 81 miles from Orlando. Yet Palm Coast (85K pop) nor Flagler County (110K) are a part of the "Jacksonville metropolitan statistical area". 

Alachua county has 263K and is NOT part of Jacksonville's MSA. Try to tell me that Gainesville is not rightly a part of Jacksonville's MSA or CSA.

Lake City is NOT allowed in our area. (69K)


Our CSA should be well over 2M.

Well this is a thread that got away from me....

Sign up for NFL Gamepass free trial, cancel after 6 days, re-sign up with different email/credit card, repeat. 

Our game at Minnesota is the NFLN game.

You have to purchase NFL Sunday Ticket Max in order to sign up for a free trial of NFL Gamepass. NFL Gamepass won’t broadcast the two home exhibition games, so essentially, you’re paying $100 to watch 2 pre-season games. I plan to just listen to the games, then watch the replays on the NFL Channel.

I just went on the game pass website and signed up for the trial for free. Didn't even mention the ST Max

Everybody like myself are doing away with cable and internet. Cable TV is a thing of the past.

Won't be long and you'll have to pay 4.99 to watch a game.
