Clear Media Bias against the Jags

#1

I don't want to be negative after such a huge win for our franchise, but I've got to tell you....the blatant media bias against the Jags has absolutely chapped my rear end. I wake up so excited Monday and the first thing I do is go to the Power Rankings, fully expecting the Jags to be anywhere between 1-3 and what do I see:

- 23rd on USA Today
- 21st ESPN 

So let me get this straight, after the most dominating win on NFL Sunday the Jags stay behind two super bowl teams we beat during the preseason in highly, highly emotional games, several teams who didn't play and another team who drew 29 fans to their home opener.... What a joke!!!


And it gets worse....

EVERY single newspaper I have researched early this week have the Jags as an Underdog in the point spread section for this weeks game?  So not one newspaper picks us to win??? Is the media trying to keep us down???  We win by 22, The Titans lose by ten to a phenomenally well coached but severely outmanned Oakland team and we are an underdog - a rationale person just can't explain this.  This is clearly another case of Goodell screwing the Jags by controlling all of the media. It has to be.

What should have happened is the national media should be picking up on this fascinating story.  A story where mismanagement (Del Rio, Garrard, Scobee) over the last decade has set our team back but through shrewd moves, strategic coaching hires and outstanding work by Kirsten Grohs, Contract Research and Salary Cap Analyst, have turned the Jags from a laughingstock into a super bowl contender. Or another story where the Jags overcome having the worst kicker in the league, and dominate the home opener, defeating the highly favorite Texans. Or...."Marrone and the Miracles" - the story of how Coach Marrone deprogrammed himself through extensive psychotherapy from everything he learned from Gus Bradley and after just one short preseason has the Jags in first place in ALL of the NFL!!!

It is time for the media to accept the fact that the "Teal Curtain" is here to stay and Roger Goodell needs to accept the fact that we are REALLY good.
