Perspective from a fan who has been here from the start

Agree with the your post, but quite frankly, it's stinging a little too much right now to participate in any discussions without getting warnings or suspensions.

I need some time off.  Was a great, and totally unexpected, season.  Anybody that could possibly be disappointed in this season as a whole has some serious issues.

There is no one individual to blame for our loss.  Any attempt to villify one person on the Jaguars after this past game is a fool's errand.

If you try villifying the playcalling of Marrone/Hackett/Wash, then you have to acknowledge their play calling put us in position to control the game for three quarters in the first place.

Bortles wasn't perfect, but that performance wins most games against most teams.

Though we were close enough for what ifs, we lost to a couple of guys in Brady and Belichick who have had unprecedented levels of success.  These are guys who have already gone to SEVEN (7) Super Bowls in their careers with the Patriots (winning five of them), and are on their way to number eight.  To put this in perspective, there are franchises that have been around for sixty years or more who haven't accomplished that in their entire histories.  The Steelers are widely seen as the preeminent franchise and have won six (6) Super Bowls in eight (8) appearances since 1933.  But three (3) different QBs and three different coaches accomplished that over forty or so years.  Brady and Belicheck have done this together since 2001.  But for these guys, we are on our way to Minneapolis.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
