I'm not as pessemistic as many of you guys seem to be.

Remember when Blackmon played? Remember the Houston game, where he had a bazillion yards? Remember who the QB was in that game? It was Chad Henne.

Look, in no way is Henne going to be mistaken with his fellow Michigan alum Tom Brady. But the Chad of 2017 has a lot of great WRs. We haven't seen what he can do with Westbrook. I think he can be effective enough to have defenses back off from stacking the line against Fournette.

I also like Brandon Allen. I understand that he's played against scrubs. Still, he's done everything you can ask of him this year. It seems to me that unlike Blake, he can read defenses. I'd like to see what he does against the Panthers' 1's.  I have this fantasy that Allen could be the next Dak Prescott. Wouldn't that be awesome?

The defense played poorly Thursday, but two guys who stood out were Dante Fowler and Patman. It's good to see Fowler's progress. This time last year against the Bucs he disappeared.  With Colvin and Patman, the Jags are now two deep at CB.

The offensive line didn't run block, but to the best of my knowledge, they only gave up one sack. I thought Marone spent WAY too much time playing Ivory and Yeldon. In my view, Grant is the second best RB on the roster - and it's not even close. I love his speed. Don't forget that in the last regular season game against the Colts in Indy, he had over 100 yards. 

I'm not against bringing in a vet QB, but I don't want to overspend, like the Bears did for Glennon. Not trying to get political, but I don't think Kap's signing would go over well in a military town. I don't think we could have gotten a guy like Cutler. He wouldn't come out of retirement to play for the Jags. Mike Vick? Maybe, but isn't he like 100 years old. And would a guy that old play for the Jags? I'm open to other suggestions.
