The Jags have two home preseason games. Why not play one of them in a rotating series of cities within driving distance of Jacksonville. Options include:

* Orlando
* Daytona Beach
* Gainesville
* Tallahassee 
* St Augustine

Jags could do some marketing and would get a lot of free publicity from those towns local sports media.   This could help TV ratings, merchandise sales and in the areas within 90 minute drives could drive sales of regular season games. 

I feel like Jags should be embraced more by the region and this could help.

Never going to happen.  The Jaguars have a "revenue problem" due to market size as well as team performance.  Your proposal is in the "market" for the Jaguars for the most part (St Augustine, Gainesville, Daytona Beach).

This was addressed by professionals by doing the London games.

Perhaps you should take your "show" down to some of those areas and try to promote it.  I'll bet that they would love you and your show.
