TL blows chunks.  Deadset below average.  The issues he had on day one as a rookie, he still has.  And now he's a $255 million albatross around Khan's neck.  You don't have to wear him, however.  You can chose to cut him lose emotionally.

The second sentence I bolded is grammatically incorrect.  What you wrote there is a sentence fragment and is frowned upon. 

Those in glass houses should not throw any stones.  

Besides, who cares about grammar?  We're all just talking football.  I agree that pejoratives and other logic fallacies should not be part of the discourse.  But this grammar enforcement or pedantic arguments are tiresome.  It drags down the discussion and results in these types of unhelpful back and forth drivel.

(And don't think I'm oblivious to the irony of pointing this out.  In fact, I recognize I'm perpetuating it.  I just wanted to call you out for your arrogance.  Just make your argument.  Call out the logic fallacies when you see them.  But this back and forth about grammar or minutia of detail hurts the overall discussion, on both sides of the debate)

You're calling someone out on arrogance?  That's like Brutus complaining all the knives are too sharp.


The knots TL defenders must twist themselves in to in order to avoid admitting TL is deadset below average is one of the more humourous things going around in NFL forums.  I predict that the number of coaching careers that TL ends will be exceeded only by the number of die-hard TL supporter heads exploding as JAX struggles to win two games this year.  The team isn't a favourite in a single game the rest of the season and only get near even odds in two games, when they host Tennesee and Texas.  But there is a lot of water to flow under the bridge before those match-ups so who knows how far in the hole the Jags will be by the time those games roll around?
