Quote:Do you have any idea how many people have told us Player X would remove the tarps?  Guess what?  The tarps are there because the stadium is too big for the market.  No player is going to make the market larger, including Manziel.  We heard the same nonsense spouted when Tebow was the target.  The only thing that's going to make the tarps go away is downsizing the stadium capacity even further. 

 

Our stadium capacity, even with the tarps installed, is higher than big market teams like Chicago.  Did you know that?

 

The Jags aren't going anywhere, and they've somehow managed to accomplish that without having some magical player who is the fan proclaimed savior.  Despite some awful seasons, there haven't been any blackouts, and millions are being invested in upgrading the facility.  Doesn't sound like a team that's on the verge of moving, does it?  So, how's Manziel going to save what doesn't need saving?

 

Anytime someone comes in with the tarps or keeping the Jags in Jax angle as part of their defense, it's clear they have no idea what they're talking about. Sorry.

I have to agree. JM isn't going to help the Jags stay in Jville, because they aren't going anywhere. I know this is news to anyone who doesn't follow the team or anyone who doesn't do their homework (majority of news analysts). I'm not poking at OP, but your arguments to why we should take him don't equate to taking him. My arguments to taking him equate to on the field play (which you eluded to as well) and how our team is very well made for him. He isn't going to start here. Our offense would be great for him. Our owner and GM are patient to allow him a year or so to learn more of what he needs. Combine that with his talents, and ding ding ding! Winner winner chicken dinner. That's just my opinion on the matter. But he won't remove tarps as FBT has discussed. He will bring more national coverage of the team and if he does well, could allow us to get more national games (MNF, TNF, etc). But winning also does this, so that really doesn't matter. Winning will solve everything. And I believe he can help with that!

 

GO JAGS!!
