So some of you might recall around a year ago I started a thread noting that the espn NFL team writers had each predicted out their own team's record game by game for that season, and using those predictions I came up with them deciding (indirectly) that the Jaguars would be a 3-13 team. See the thread here: https://jungle.jaguars.com/index.php?/to...m-in-2016/

 

Many of us scoffed at the idea, though we noted that Gus was at the rudder and with him leading the team expectations shouldn't be high, but for any team with talent 3 wins is an exceptionally low win prediction.

 

Well we quickly found out that even though none of us saw it coming, apparently the outside perception was dead on, as the Jaguars went 3-13 and looked every bit the complete losers a 3-13 team is, continually killing themselves with huge mental mistakes and bad decisions. Personal fouls kept opponents drives alive, offensive and special teams turnovers killed drives before they even started, and the running game was once again so bad and so unaccountable that Bortles was made to once again try to carry the offense on his shoulders.

 

This season the espn NFL team writers have once again selected the Jaguars for three wins on the season. http://www.espn.com/blog/jacksonville-ja...he-jaguars

 

Last year I thought it was a bad number to pick just because I thought the team is too talented for coaching to hold them that far down, this season I think 3 is way too low. Even very poorly coached teams usually win more than 3 games, and I don't think the coaching will be nearly as bad this season.
