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.
I totally agree and Orlando is the obvious and only choice.  That is a market that needs to be weened away from the Dolphins.  Of coarse winning would go a long way to help there but I degress.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.
