Quote:Well thank you for the compliment.  I actually said it is too early in YOUR estimation to call for people's heads.  I won't be confusing your for a genius, but I appreciate you recognizing one.

 

I just thought it was weird to say 5 year rebuild is unacceptable when it is 1st game of a year 2 in the rebuild.  You say they should get 3 years and than say how frustrated you are and not expecting to win is unacceptable.  Talking from both ends...

 

I was making the point that by listening to the media covering the Jags, as well as Gus and Dave - it almost appears that they're on a 5 year rebuild.

 

By year 3, we need to be in the playoffs.

 

By year 2 (this year) we need significant improvement over year 1 which was an embarrassment even for low Jaguars standards.  To me, that is at least 6 wins.  

 

Year 2 is under way, and we blew a 17 point lead and allowed 34 unanswered points.

 

Instead of more criticism, all we've heard is how "we're still far away from being able to hang with the best teams" etc etc.  When exactly will we hang with them?  When is winning going to be expected? 

 

The way it's going, and the way they're talking, this year won't be it.  I can just picture next year starting and suddenly we're "competing for 2nd in our division"....
