It just feels obvious seeing the way games are officiated .... The NFL WANTS the Jags to break that consecutive loss record.

Back in 2017 when we played the Browns (who went winless 0-16 that season) .... there was not a penalty called against them the entire day, and seemingly any soft call they could give them against us was given, they negated a few turnovers but there were a few that they really couldn't overturn and luckily we escaped that game with a win. I honestly believe that the officiating of that game was designed to prevent the Browns from going winless, and also destroy the Jags chances at making the playoffs/winning the division because they don't want a small market team in the showcase that is the playoffs. It just stings more knowing that later that season in the AFCCG the Patriots got all those ticky tacky calls to flip the field and hand them points; all while not having a penalty called against them on offense or defense (the first time that has happened in any playoff game during the superbowl era; there was a single hold called against the Pats that day on a kick return) and of course the obligatory #MJWD  ... the whistle that came as he had picked up the ball and got 10 yards downfield was way too late, why not blow that before he even gets up with the ball???? I've yet to hear an explanation from the referee who blew the whistle why we were denied a superbowl appearance. I'm very curious to see who the ref that did that was.

I just want to see Darell Bevell have his playcalling duties revoked once we get across the 20 yard line. the 4th and goal from the 1 in back to back weeks has cost us. And the refusal to use James Robinson there screams incompetence.  There is absolutely no reason Carlos Hyde should be getting snaps, in 2 minute, in goalline, in short yardage, in pass blocking. There is nothing that he brings to the table and i'm sick of seeing him play as if it's a pop warner game where the snaps have to be shared across every kid.
