Quote:With all the consecutive losing seasons, mediocre coaching staff, poor drafts, relocation rumors, constant Tebow talk, and media hate, it makes me wonder if the Jags will ever be as good as they were in 1995-2000, and 2004-2007. I know that other teams like the 49ers, Colts, Texans, and even the Patriots have all gone through this phase before, but this is just brutal what this team and our fanbase has been going through these last few years.

 

 

I hope that there are some other fans, from other teams out there who can offer words of encouragement to our fanbase.

 

1984 to 1994 was a rough time to be a Colts fan. We went to the playoffs once and the 87 strike had a huge assist in that. 

 

We heard the Colts were relocating to LA and for a while even Cleveland was a hot landing spot. All I know is that the fans have to show up, and that is tough when a team is struggling. We were fortunate that even through our bad years, in a small stadium, that we were selling over 40,000 tickets a game. I believe the ticket sales during the bad years had a huge impact and saved us.

 

I also believe that if it were not for Peyton Manning becoming a Colt; we would already be in LA.
