We just hung a big fat L from one of the worst teams in the league and now we're only hoping for a win against a team we've already shut out.  Even if we do manage to beat them again, it will be a giant 'meh'.

The exhausting Jaguars yo-yo ride continues.

Not sure how you expected this season to go but if you had told me we had 2 wins and a chance to sweep the clots in week 6 I would have taken that all day before the season started lol
Enjoy the ride of the rebuild man. We're probably a .500 team realistically (which could still win this not very good division)

We lost our starting LG, our best Dlineman, and our vet WR that put up over 100 yards last week.  We have a number of key players down as well.

Not sure Bartch is a huge missing piece. Shat should fill in fine. Missing MJJ is a hit to the wr corp but we should have Zay Jones so don't think that's a terrible deal either. Foley being out is tough for our run D.... 

Anyone talking about how a win shouldn't be celebrated should probably just go watch paint dry.

I predicted, and still do, 6-8 wins, but I expected our struggles to come against good teams. The Houston game was a certified goat rope. It's one thing to hone your skills against teams with better talent. It's another to lay a Gus Bradley dookie in the middle of the field against a winless team. 

I'm onboard the improvement train, I just didn't expect it to derail so spectacularly, thus aggravating my Battered Fan Syndrome. 5 games of Doug Pederson coaching isn't going to overcome more than a decade of relentless disappointment. 

Now get off my lawn!

Bartch is still one of our starting lineman, he was getting better each game.  I like Shatley but at Center not guard.  He looked bad in camp and preseason at guard, he was actually our starter early but Bartch beat him out.  It's not good if Bartch is beating you out.  We have Zay but MJJ is our most consistent WR and a go to when we really need a play.  I'd honestly like to see Tim Jones get some action

I would like to see Tim Jones today, too. However, Pederson seems to prefer Agnew over Tim Jones and he's not wrong.
