Quote:Yeah, we should just set aside the drop in production, the lack of burst, and the loss of any big play ability in order for him to retire a Jaguar. The fact that there are former Jags who moved on to other teams in the twilight of their careers like Fred Taylor, Tony Boselli, and Mark Brunell who all retired Jags should be set aside. An MJD in decline was deserving of holding on to because he was good 3 years ago.


There's a reason he got peanuts from Oakland. The tank is pretty much dry. He probably would have gotten more consideration if he maintained his conditioning, and of course if he didn't hold out with 2 years left on a contract that made him one of the highest compensated running backs in the league. He sealed his fate then, and he did nothing to change it afterward. He was injured, and he was out of shape over the past 2 years. The injury was beyond his control. Showing up fat was totally on him.
