Quote:Is reaction from the fan base down there to kick him off the team or give him another chance? As an outsider, it seems better to give him another chance in 2014. But if its the PR nightmare it could be in Jacksonville, that could change things. That's much harder to read from indianapolis.

 

You hate to have a talent like Blackmon go. But PR might demand it.

 

I think it's more ambivalence.  If they let him go, I think most of us would understand the move.  If they keep him, I get that too.  If I were choosing, I'd take the latter, but only because regardless of what we want, this is his last chance.  May as well see if that sinks in.

 

Quote:based on the reaction of this board I'd say its divided, most are done caring one way or another if he does something great but as far as most are concerned he's just a bum were stuck with

 

Yeah, pretty much.  Even the ones who say to cut him usually say "I'm done with him", which at least to me is a sign that they're done caring about what he does.  But if the Jags keep him, I don't expect big complaints.  Like you said, more "yeah, we're stuck with this guy for the entire trip".
