Quote:Let's look at this from a Win/Loss perspective.  We'd probably lose to the Pack anyway so why not ship that game over and keep a more competitve game here at home where the fans can help make a difference in the outcome.  In other words, I see us in 2016 as having a chance to beat the Bears, Lions, or VIkes at home so keeping that NFC North game at home is probably better strategically in attempt to win the division.

I disagree with this line of thinking. 

 

While we certainly would be considered the underdog in the match-up, I think that point is completely irrelevant.  If you're a fan of the NFL, you want the opportunity to see the best the NFL has to offer, even if you're likely to come out of the game on the losing end.  And suppose the Jags defy odd maker expectation and pull out a win.  Those are always the sweetest victories to celebrate at the end of the day.  I'm not paying for season tickets to only see games we have a chance to win.  I'm paying to see the games where we have an opportunity to face off against the best, and possibly walk out with a win despite the odds.
