Quote:Jimmy Johnson would get this team up and ready to play and make sure they all knew it was time to extendz the season.
Whether you liked him or not, the man could coach.
Every single Jag's fan really loves the result of his very last game as an NFL HC.
Just like in 1990 when his team fell flat on it's face the last two games of the season and missed the playoffs.
Just like most young teams, they had to learn what it takes to get to the next level the hard way.
Even the magic of Jimmy Johnson couldn't overcome a young roster.
If we get that swaggar that you speak of, can we call ourselves the "Swaguars"?
A few problems are remaining healthy, (injuries have plauged HC Gus Bradley's career in Jacksonville, and the team should look at ways to improve overall health of its players this offseason while remaining very competitive possible suggestions are to take a real close look at the physical trainers qualifications).
The young drafted players are showing an increase in value as time progresses; Rookie RB Tj Yeldon is currently ranked 3rd in yards among the rookies with 740 despite sharing reps, and being injured. He has taken tons of reps, and proven to be good at blocking & catching for the team (not bad for a 2nd rounder)! The 2nd year QB Blake Bortles with his potent Duo combo Allen Hurns & Allen Robinson are starting to scare NFL defenses!
TE Julius Thomas is starting to look more like the player we had all hoped for when he was signed, and as time progresses he'll start to make life easier for Blake Bortles!
If only the Oline could greatly improve in the offseason & Lee get healthy & better this team's offense would be elite.
Quote:The issue we are going to face is salary cap when these guys all come up for their 2nd contract within 2 years. If BB continues to be The Guy you know he's going to get the bulk of what's available. That means we might not be able to afford all the others. Yeah, I know we are xxxxxxxx amount under the cap NOW, but where will we be in 2018?

Fair question. They keep increasing the cap though, the more money the league generates...
It'll take a lot to get us close to cap woes. Caldwell n co seem adept at #s crunching.
I can hear the announcer now,
"With this win the Jaguars stand a chance of advancing into the postseason. The score is tied with two seconds left on the clock. Jason Meyers lines up for the kick..."

It's not an XP so he will make it.

Unless, the TD tied the score.

First we must become Jaggernauts.
We will give Bortles a huge extension, as well as Robinson. Maybe a guy like Telvin Smith can get franchised if money is tight.
But that is a good problem to have.
Saw the article yesterday, that's me in the comments taking on the Steelier fans.

Space them appropriately and continue to front load. That's how you do it and why they keep large amounts of space available right now.

"Wait, Bradley's thrown the challenge flag..."

That's funny right there.
"It's good, Jags win! But wait a minute, Gus Bradley called a timeout. The game winning FG wont count"
I am not sure if the Jags will be the "Next great offense" or not, but they are going to be pretty dang good and it is fun watching this young core come together and bud into some big time NFL players.

In 1990, Aikman got hurt the next to the last game. Babe Freaking Laufenberg QBd the remainder of the Eagles game (2nd to last game), and that Falcons game.
The team didn't really get going until week 12 or so in 1991.

the two he missed in the first dolts game weren't XP's either...

There's no way anyone here can tell the future of what will happen with this offense. Stuff happens that change whole careers. But I'll say this; any improvement is better than watching the dumpster fire we've all endured for years now from this team.
