I know you have this absurd man crush for Derek Cox, but he walked away from the Jags. They tried to extend his deal and he passed. So, please, either root for the Chargers or grab a clue. This team had to be blown up to move forward. It's way too soon to know if their approach is right or not.


Based on your own personal history, you should know well enough that sometimes it takes time to turn things around. Get out of the microwave oven mentality and allow actual time for this to develop. This team is 3 games into a rebuild, and faced one of the top teams in the league today on their turf. This game was destined to be ugly when you look at all of he Jags NOT on the field, and the overall youth of those who are. It'll take time and patience.

 

I have no problem with taking the patience approach, I took it for 3 of Gene's 4 years, what I'm not ok with is blindly rubber stamping every move this new regime makes.

 

My issue isn't with what happend today alone, it's with the approach we've gone about this third rebuild in the last decade. I have issue with getting worse to get better, I bring up Derek Cox because it's a prime example of getting worse at a position forcing us to spend 2 draft picks in the secondary and ignoring obvious problems elsewhere on the roster.

 

You can joke about it being man crushes cause sarcasm is your thing, fine, but the point stands, this new regime made SEVERAL big changes I'm not ready to rubber stamp them as the right direction.
