We could have won the super with our exact roster, there was no change needed even at the qb that year. Bortles did everything he was supposed to do throughout the playoffs and our Defense did as well. Our coaching let us down and a couple of bad calls from the ref.
The fact that we can see this and the coaches or front office couldn't blows my mind. I had a issue with pretty much every release that happen except for really Barry Church and would could have kept him and tried to restructure for the chemistry.
The chemistry of the team was unmatched, you could tell, Poz was a real mentor for Telvin Smith and he did not want to retire but our front office would not do right by him forcing him to retire.
Its just bad FO overall and then after the season instead of improving or offense but selecting a former Heisman winner taking a risk, just in case Bortles reverts back to the up and down play, Lamar Jackson fell to us and we let him pass for Taven Bryan????. It made absolutely no sense to take a gamble on a unproven DT when we could have took the gamble on Lamar Jackson or even someone else.
It may be a super reach but now to me it really seems like they did not want to win a Super Bowl or even allow us to get to the super bowl because it wouldn't allow Khan to be able to have the option to move the team because that would have solidifies us for a good amount of years and brought some real pride to the Jaguars. I feel like it was done on purpose because this collective of grown men can't all watch and let all of this happen after having our greatest defense and 2nd best season in team history. It just makes you question everything.
There's so much wrong with this post I don't know where to start. You say there was no change needed at QB and then chide the team for not drafting Jackson? The team forced Poz to retire?
And the notion that the FO gutted the team because they wanted to avoid winning the superbowl so Khan still had the option to move the team is the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. Put the crack pipe down man.
The FO makes more than enough real bad decisions to criticize them for without having to invent a bunch of [BLEEP] to throw on top of it.
I said for that season!! And if we were going to take a risk on a player why not let it be a qb just in case Bortles did not work out. As we all knew he was inconsistent. We took a risk on Taven Bryan an unproven DT and not Lamar Jackson knowing that Bortles was inconsistent but he did what he was supposed to do for that playoff run.
Also, you can think how you want think but I said based on the things that they let happen. Things that fans on a message board could see but men that have experience being paid millions to do their jobs, It makes me believe there had to be something else behind it. I said it was a reach but with the London stuff it makes me question it.
No crack pipe or nothing like that, all critical thinking, you can be a sheep if you want to and not question anything. I understand we can't do anything about it but The NFL is business and they were created to make money so I don't believe its out of the question because there is a bunch of questionable [BLEEP] that has went on throughout the years.
Also Poz did not want to retire but he did not want to go to another team or move this late in his career.
