All This.  We are living in the modern stone age from the town of J-ville.  Our coaching is a page right out of history.

I really love Marrone's retro-approach that flies in the face of everything the league is pushing. I like going against the grain of the status quo and the wussification of football. The direction of the league sucks. 

Unfortunately it will require the Jags to have more horses than currently reside in their stable. And it will mean playing with a disadvantage to other offenses as the league continues to reward pass attacks with rule after rule -  and the offensive holding call in the NFL becomes akin to traveling in the NBA. 

The league doesn't want a smash-mouth football team anymore. I'd absolutely love to see the Jags pull off doing it anyway, but the apparent disadvantages seem to be too much to overcome. 

Hopefully the process of finding a new QB, a TE, and adding a lineman or two will allow them to simply hybridize their approach to lean just a bit more on the pass  -  taking a little heat off the run game and the defense. Not a 180 degree turn. Just a minor shift in focus and balance.

Agree with all this, I like being the contrarian team.

We should have been aggressive and shopped for a WR. Poked at a backup LT. And kicked tires on some TEs and CBs.

No QB comes in and helps at this point. Get some pieces to help the QB you already have here.

Jags should sign bradford but he gets hurt way too much

You've seen our line, right?  Bradford isn't a viable option for this team if he can't protect himself with his legs.

The only fix for this team over the next 8 weeks is for them to get healthy and to start playing the way they're expected to play.  There's no magic bullet sitting out there on the street that's going to fix what ails this team.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Right now, unless some totally overlooked QB falls into their lap a la Warner, Romo, or Brady, the Jag's are not going to find an above average QB.

Why don’t we use our TEs more?

Why don’t we use our TEs more?

Well, for starters the top three TEs on the depth chart are on IR. 

The two scrubs that were active in London actually got a decent number of targets and a couple first downs considering. 

They also use them to block a solid amount due to the O-Line being in such a sad state. 

Sefferian-Jenkins was getting around 5 targets a game before he was hurt.

Perhaps I was being hopefully optimistic, but Grinnage looked a little promising. 

(sigh) I'm reverting to the old Jags fan.

He did. I hope Grinnage and Bell show enough this week in practice to be part of the gameplan in Indy.
