Lots of talk before the game and lots of talk after the game. In big games, the talk is usually just excuses. I remember when squealers would come here for a home game....and Florida being Florida.....tons of squealer fans would show up. They're only surpassed by the tacks fans on my Hate-Meter. Stupid towels.

My pouting 8 year old could have written this article.
I am starting to agree more with the sentiment our players have this week about Pittsburg (a bunch of punks). I even made an account on their fan page this week and tried to engage in some reasonable convo to offer a Jags fan perspective. Both times administrators did not approve my posts and they disappeared lol. Talk about weak!

I'll take a pedestrian passer during the regular season all year if it means he heats up like an Eli Manning or Joe Flacco when the games truly matter. Sure, his numbers weren't gaudy. ![]() ![]() 80% of what I talk about is nonesense.. the other 25% is made up statistics... We show less advertisements to registered users.

The ironic thing and bottom line is this. This team won BECAUSE of the play of Blake Bortles rather than in spite of his play.
There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

It shows lack of respect for our team in whole and our coaches. Blake's mediocrity was more than offset by their prima Donna players and terrible Steeler coaching. Tomlin sucks, and we have a hard nosed TEAM.Simple as that. I'm sure you couldn't.

It makes no sense at all to me when an opposite player or coach disses a player and/ or an overall team.
People can say all they want about the Patriots in terms of Spygate, Deflategate, and whatever else. However, I would be very surprised if any Patriots player disses Blake Bortles and/ or any other Jaguars player before, during, or after the upcoming AFC Championship game. This is one team that I'm anticipating will respect the Jaguars to the nth degree.
I read the whole thing and while there is some disrespect towards Bortles, I thought it was a pretty fair article. To me it really reads more as the writer coming to grips with the fact that Blake Bortles isn't as bad as the meme version everyone makes him out to be.
"For every off-target throw — he went 14 for 26 and put grass-stains on his share of balls — there was an effective checkdown. He didn’t turn the ball over. He didn’t take a sack. He rushed for 35 yards, including a crucial 16-yarder in the fourth quarter on one of Jacksonville’s eight third-down conversions." " 'One thing I learned is when you talk negative about him, he comes out and just proves you wrong over and over again,' cornerback A.J. Bouye said. 'He did it against Seattle. He did it the first time [against the Steelers in October]. He did it today. I got a lot of respect for him.' It’s impossible not to feel the same." Those generally aren't quotes you'd put in a piece to rip on a player. Sure, there are all the meme bits in the article, but he mentions that at the end of the day Bortles did his part to help the Jaguars win and because of that, Pittsburgh's season is over.

Can you imagine how difficult it has to be to be the Steelers with their winning seasons and history and all to get beat at home twice in one season by Blake Bortles, who is Dr Jekyl/Mr Hyde, and the bastard redheaded stepchild team of the NFL, those lowly Jaguars who were 3-13 last year? The Steelers have a lot of pride and a lot of history with the Pats. We were a minor blip on their radar on their way to what they were sure was going to be a sound thumping of the Pats and on to the SB. I totally believe there are shock waves going through the city of Pittsburgh today. Genuine shock among the players and the fans that they lost to us. They're coming to grips with reality and I don't think it's an easy pill to swallow. I love it.
