Quote:Yeah, this is definitely not on purpose, that doesn't happen.  Seems like the physical talent is headed in the right direction but we are our own worst enemy when it comes to stupid mental mistakes.  Coaching is a part of that.  Players inexperience is a part of that.  At some point though, the team has to learn to put that behind them.

ah... I must disagree. Do you really think that the colts didn't tank to get Andrew Luck? No? Tell me, would you be interested in buying some property in Brooklyn?

So here is the conspiracy theory...

*The NFL wants to expand into London, and London seems interested in having an NFL team there.

*London games for the Jags are more profitable for Shad Khan than home games here...(fact!) 

*Khan said he would never move the team unless it became unprofitable to stay in Jacksonville...

*Khan is the newest owner and has family and other business interest in London, including a professional soccer team there.

*The worse the Jags perform, the lower the game attendance and tv marketing value will become, lowering the profitability of staying here.

*Jacksonville is among, if not THE smallest market in the NFL. 

*At least one London sports writer has already come out and said the Jags will be London's team in 4 to 5 years....

*The team inexplicably under-performs at the worst possible times leaving the impression that some players are 'throwing the game'.

*The Jaguars are being promoted more than any other NFL team in London....

hmmmm. sounds like the makings of an Agatha Christy mystery...
