I know that the defense was missing some players and that had an impact on things. But I hope to see the Jags dominate offensively in real games against other teams. I am interested in seeing some footage from the scrimmage.

This is the time of year, every year, when we have to wonder- is our offense that good, or is our defense that bad.  And, of course, sometimes the other way around.  

Our offense completed 12 touchdown passes!  Yippee!
Our defense gave up 12 touchdown passes!  Oh, NO!

I'm going with a little of column A and a lot of column B. I think our offense will be significantly better than most outsiders expect (which isn't saying much because national expectations are super low), but our defense will be absolutely terrible. It's kind of refreshing to have it that way round for once tbh, could lead to some exciting games at least.

Of course with the Jags any rational observations are usually completely turned on their head by about week 4 of the season, so who knows what to expect.
