Quote:Strategic planning is a long view investment. The knee jerk every week garbage on this board is chock full of terrible business strategy for either the NFL or real life, and that's why most people vent on here; because they aren't capable or qualified to do anything else but whine.

 

I'm trying hard  to not take any of what you're saying personally.  You don't know me. I'm not a venter.

As a small business owner for almost 20 years , the last 6 or 7 which we survived when many others failed, I have endured quite a bit of what "real life" can dish out. I consider myself pretty dang capable and patient.

 

I am anything but a whiner, but I am pretty bummed out about losing our first two games by larger margins  than we did last year.

First two in 2013 were 2-28 to the chiefs ....and 9-19 to the raiders. That's a total of 36 points. Margin on our first two  now stands at 48 points!

 

Now against a team that had not won their last nine in season games we take a thorough, totally dominated 10-41 loss after a 17-34 Jekyl and Hyde performance.

Please tell me what kind of "strategic plan" counts on rolling that far backwards to go forward?

I thought we had pretty much done that last year.

 

Did I expect to win every game this year, nope! But I expected to see some resemblance of a football team.

I had a lot of optimism that the Jags would make a better accounting of themselves this year, especially after the first half of the eagles game.

 

I'll be at the game next week and hope and pray this group finds a way to at least play a watchable game.

No way the plan can be to take a worse beating than we got today.
