Not good for Jaguars until shown or proven to be otherwise.
At least Trevor Lawrence will be playing so hopefully the team plays up and beyond their talent level!
Urban Meyer and F.O and Co. better not self-sabotage....

One guy i always forget Houston have now is David Johnson. He had a great rookie year in Arizona but not done much since
And they gave up Hopkins for him!!?

Blind faith? It's true with any coach at that level. It's true with coaches at the collegiate level. You do know they're watching at every single practice, right? People here are basing their ideas of players on what reporters write. Reporters are at the same practices but don't see nearly as much as the coaches. Unlike reporters the coaches also know the players' assignments so know who did what they're supposed to or not.
We are basing our opinion on watching Dewey play in the NFL and his performance thus far this year is not better than it was pre-Urbz. He bad and you suckered.

You probably don't even know who he is. Dude has a good slot WR pretty much his whole career.

Tell me how he got to have the best talent available? He could recruit mostly anyone he wanted so he got the best ones available. You see, it's not like he recruited scrubs because he knew who the best ones were. Why do you think he wouldn't be able to identify talent at the NFL level?
Anyway, it's funny how this triggers people.
Suitcases of cash to high school kids' grandmas always got the job done in college. I'm sure he was shocked to find the NFL was so different.

Didn’t Amendola sit last season for concussion protocol? Regardless, he’s getting a little long in the tooth.

I’m giving Meyer every ounce of the benefit of the doubt I can. I just wonder how much the team will give him when his salesman coaching style doesn’t produce results right away. It’s going to be an interesting season to watch how everyone learns and evolves.

He is getting older but his production hasn't fell off and he is still a veteran dangerous slot guy

I think Meyer is just playing the same games as he did with Lawrence.
If he doesn't then the explanation is this:
Wingard > Cisco. At this time.
I know Wingard is disliked by most here but if he's starting it's because he's better than Cisco.
There's no way internet posters can judge this better than a coach like Meyer. No way. I'm sorry if slowflakes don't like that but it's the truth. Some people here think way too highly of themselves.
it's not the ONLY reason possible, Meyer may also favor starting vets and working the rooks in gradually. I'm not going to call the season a waste because of who gets the nod in week 1.
Winger isn't the future and everyone knows it, coaching staff included. Give it time, it will work itself out. Pretty confident in saying that if we lose Sunday, that the loss won't be something that can be pinned squarely on Winger's back, we got holes all over.
Dangerous? A guy whose career high in receiving yardage is 678 yards is considered 'dangerous'?

If he gives up 3 TDs to Danny Amendola we'll look back at this and laugh.

Just more signs of Urbs not having a [BLEEP] clue about what he is doing as he continues to think he's the smartest man in the room.
It's the same dumb crap he did with the QBs. The same dumb crap as the -OR- between Robinson and Hyde. etc etc
They better keep him in the box the whole game because he has no business trying to play deep, or cover anybody.
Do you say the same of Joe Cullen? Our DB coaches? Do you think that if Winger was such a liability they wouldn't speak up? Or that they would willingly allow their livelihood to appear subpar?
I get that the HC has final say, but denying that anyone else isn't speaking to the matter is ignorance. Cripes, it's not like we cut the dude, we just said he won't be first on the field.
whoop. dee. farts.

It all starts Sunday. Hopefully Meyer proves you are wrong, like he has at every step of the road until this point. That’s what Jaguars fans want and deserve. Time will tell.
'every step' may be stretching things a bit.
He's proved his humanity along the way.

Yes, If your slot guy is getting you over 600 yrds that's very productive for slot WR

The Danny Amendola who went to TTU, is 35 years old, and has never cracked 700 yards in a season even though he had the luxury of playing with Brady and Stafford?
Why do you always say this when I make a counterpoint? As if I haven't been watching football for 30 years.
The point is that Amendola shouldn't strike fear in anyone. He's average and becomes below average when he has a bad QB. If the Jags can't stop Tyrod Taylor and Amendola, they are in for a very long season.

I'll start with he got a team that was already built to win (UF).
I'll follow with he took jobs at places that are historically easy to recruit for (UF/anOSU)
It's not like he was taking jobs at Wake or Kansas.

So 'very productive' is now considered 'dangerous'. Got it.
To call a guy who averaged 45 yards a game in his best year 'very productive' is a bit of a stretch.

without looking, where did he play last season?
fun stat, in the past three seasons (all post-Tawmy), dude has two TD. Yeah, I know who he is.

Lol, makes sense coming from the casual fan thinking 600 yards coming from your slot WR is like getting 600 yards from one of your starting outside WRs
