Gamble from Washington, DC:
While many fellow Jaguars fans still have their pitchforks and torches ready, isn't 2015 a success because the Jaguars found their quarterback? Barring injury, Blake Bortles will set the team's passing touchdowns record – and he's doing it with two (and maybe three) second-year receivers who are lighting it up. It's not perfect, but shouldn't we be stoked to have found a quarterback?

I am pretty happy about it.  I would be a lot happier about it if his offensive line was playing better.  Having found your franchise quarterback is equivalent to having the entire border of a puzzle put together, there is still much to do but the framework is there.

<div>Stephen from Jacksonville:
Is too much blame for the lack of pass rush placed on the Jaguars' current LEOs? The team has clearly shown Sen'Derrick Marks makes the pass rush better. Why is it generally thought that a pass rush must be built from the outside to inside? Do the Jaguars need another dominant interior pass rusher more than they need a dominant LEO?
 
The reality is this team has not had its starting Defensive line all year long.  They stop the run well and not much else, I wish they would be a bit better at eating up screens and containing quarterbacks.  Unfortunately I think we sacrifice those traits in order to focus on getting up the field which we still fail to do regularly.  As far as inside out or outside in I prefer both, I prefer teams that can win one on ones throughout the line.
 

<div>Kyle from Ohio:
Do you think we will get to a point where free agency is virtually gone? What I mean is the salary cap will continue to rise and rise as revenue does. I wonder if we will get to a point where teams can pretty much always keep their own free agents each year.
 
As the salary cap rises so do the player contracts that are signed.  Any team can keep their own players if they are smart with their cap, the problem is most teams are not smart with their cap or they sign silly contracts.

<div>Wayne from Orlando, FL:
Hey John, do you think it's a crazy idea that the Jags should trade away some draft picks to get some immediate impact players on defense? I think it would be a good move being that we already have core receivers, a running back and a quarterback for the future. Your thoughts, sir.

<b>I like when Caldwell has a full complement of draft picks If a team is willing to part with a player for a pick they probably consider that pick more valuable.  In the case of Randy Moss a few years ago for a late round pick I am all for it but any early round pick for a player is something I would not endorse.</b>
 

<div>Kevin from Jacksonville:
My heart tells me Marqise Lee would beat Denard Robinson in a 40-yard dash. But their combine says Marqise was at 4.44 (first attempt was 4.5!) and Denard at 4.32. These stats aside, what say you Sir O of Zone?
 
I could care less who would win in a footrace, I would like to see them outrun the other team for explosive plays.  The speed those two players have should be opening up this offense.
 

<div>Kyle from Palm Harbor, FL:
imitation Zone, I thought this was it, this was the season. Turns out it's just soup and sandwich at a coffee shop.
 
I went into the season expecting 7-9 and that is still my expectation.  They are fun and aggravating to watch which is much better than the embarrassingly aggravating that we got the last few years.  Enjoy the ride this team is obviously on the way up.
 
Dwayne from Jacksonville:
You said Fred Taylor's talent was rare. When he finished his career, I said, “Well Done.” P.S., It's rough when people expect an imitation senior writer to be able to predict the quality of the draft class we've not picked yet.

I can give it a try, I predict the team will make a couple quality picks and a couple bad picks and a pick or two that don't make the opening day roster.  It would pretty cool to have Kelvin, although I would hate it if he turned out to not be that good.  Might be borderline impossible to please this fanbase and their outer-worldly expectations for him.
