Everything has turned out okay, thanks, Bullseye.

Great to hear.
I'm going to panic now and get it out of the way.

Move on to apathy it makes good things look like great things. Just drink in that one draft pick.
Bright side: Pass block OLINE is actually good.

It's going to be hilarious when Lawrence sucks and Jags fans blame the oline.

No I'm not. 
I'm placing many years of watching preseason football and being duped by it above freaking out right now.

LOL

Yeah man, all those preseasons where we use vanilla schemes and get our butts kicked.

LOL

Then magically the season starts and we gameplan and come out guns blazing.

LOL

Happens every year.

LOL

...

LOL

Exactly what I was thinking.  What are these guys watching.

It would be one thing if the Jags had a history of playing bad in the preseason and then come out guns blazing.  They usually suck from the start of the preseason til the end of the regular season. Where do they get this crazy implication that "it's only preseason" from?

Those cases are the exception more the rule.  I bet if you looked at past superbowl winners most had atleast a decent preseason.  I don't see teams in bad shape like the Jaguars magically get better starting week 1.  It does happen but very rare.  The Ravens have won something like 24 preseason games in the row.  Stats can be swung both ways but most of the time bad teams play poorly in the preseason.

Yea pass protection was awesome last night.  He watched the same game and agrees with you...

I think in the grand scheme of things randomness will revert back to average/.500, but I consider the Ravens to be an anomaly. Purely anectdotal, but we tend to hear more about the 4-0 Loins that then went unwinfeated or the Kelly-era Bills teams and Manning Colts going 0-fer because either they weren't playing their established roster, or were in a position to roll the dice on guys other teams wouldn't take a look at, even if they didn't pan out. When the games mattered, though, they were never a pushover.
