We're the Jaguars; the perennial, small-market, losing team that the media's loved to make fun of for most of our existance. You can't expect that to change overnight. They'll wake up once we make the payoffs. For now, I'm perfectly content fying under the radar.

Its not about the attention, its a direct reply to his comment.

And my response was a direct reply to your comment, explaining why the Rams took top billing over the Jags.  The Rams game was between the two top media markets in the country.  The Jags/Cincy tilt?  Not so much.

Oh, so the punt return was not? Or the TD catch by Lee? Interesting. New trend in 2017... Touchdowns are not REAL highlights.

The point being, small market vs. biggest media markets.  The Jags got plenty of air play following the win, so this whining about media bias is pointless.

Highlight shows aren't so much about highlights anymore. Way, way too much talking and light on the entertainment. Somewhere along the way sports reports started thinking they need to act more like journalists instead of fan service. It is the same problem with most entertainment venues now.

I embrace the under the radar or as some call it, disrespect. If you've been around this team for any length of time, you'll understand that there has ALWAYS been an NFL bias against the Jags. From the early years of success, to the Super Bowl hosting, to London, to now... Any success what-so-ever is a dagger in the eye of the NFL because we are a small market that quite frankly wasn't supposed to exist.

After this year and 2018 when the Jaguars are no longer in the bottom of the NFL pecking order ....it will be other teams "turn in the box" and the Jaguars will be a team others fear.

I like it. But honestly from what I've read and seen on twitter, I'd say that for a 5-3 team we are getting decent love.

Actually, it’s the tacks who ask that. Philip Rivers does too. We’ll shut him up this Sunday.

Walter Foozball is taking the Chargers +4 for 8 units this Sunday. Can't wait to read his rant/excuses for losing that wager on Monday.

man I prefer the under dog feeling.. let them feel disrespected, it fuels them

once they start touting how great we are, thats when we have to worry, players start thinking they are going to win just by walking out there

I hope they disrespect us every week, let our guys come out their with fire
