Quote:Yes, but what about the close losses? It goes both ways.


I think, for the first time in years, we have a franchise QB and a nucleus of young players to build around. It take time, a long time, to build through the draft. Look at all the players playing yesterday who were in their 5th, 6th, 7th season. Our young core of players are all 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year players.

I agree about close losses. However, that's what the NFL is. The "bad" teams don't get blown out in a regular basis. Most NFL games are close contests (certainly not all of them). The difference between good and bad teams is that the good teams find ways to win the close contests while the bad teams still find themselves with a Loss.


Because of the 2-3 seasons prior to this one,, I think alot of Jags fans are maybe used to frequent blowout losses. In actuality,, teams don't get blown out 7 to 10 times a year. Maybe they will once or twice, but the rest of the time they're losing fairly close games.


The Jags have improved to the "Lose Small" category.


It's just my opinion, but I don't think they're real close. Probably still another season removed from being actual playoff contenders.
