Some of them actually seemed pretty well informed about our team. I guess you can excuse their arrogance a little bit considering their history over the last 15 years.
Confidence is often mistaken for arrogance. When a team wins 12-14 games each season, of course fans will be confident. 18 years of confidence can easily be confused with arrogance. We never expect the Pats to lose because when your team wins 80% of the time, you expect to win. Jordan's Bulls and today's GS Warriors for example.

Those of us who have been through the (so many) 2-5 win seasons know the difference. If the Jags go on to win the SB this year, you guys can brag, be as obnoxious, and arrogant as you want and no one can say %$#@ about it.

If the Jags win, I'll be back to take my medicine.

I hear you. I differentiate arrogance from confidence by looking to see if they're saying "we should win because we're a better team" compared to "we should win because we're the Patriots".

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.
