I do not think many people expected the Jaguars to make the playoffs this year. The main goal for this year that the organization and media has pushed is improvement and based off the two games this season we are failing in that aspect. The Jaguars are a rebuilding team and most people in the media and organization have continuously said that 2015 is the year we can expect to see this team make a push for the playoffs and seriously compete. 

 

However based on today's game and the collapse last week we are playing at the same if not worse than last year. The Jaguars as it stands look atleast 3-4 years away from the playoffs and that is the worst part about today. All the excitement and talk about improvement died today. The team in some aspects even looks like it has regressed.

 

This season the Jags still have yet to have one long sustainable drive that ends in a TD. All the TDs this year have been from excellent field position off a turnover (last week) or missed coverage on a play (today).

 

Chad Henne has been sacked more times this season than the Jags have completed 3rd down conversions. Up until half way through the 2nd quarter today the Jags had 1 yard of total offense, and this is against a team that was WORSE than us last year who just lost their starting QB and best WR.

 

I am not saying the Jags are Super Bowl contenders but personally I am tired of being the laughingstock of the NFL. Today was a serious reality check of who we are and where we need to go. Now it is up to the coaching staff to try and take us there. It is time to stop only talking about improvement and actually show it.
