Damn. Feel bad for the guy. And us.
This is a results-oriented business.  There are no trophies or titles given for "moral victories" or for "winning the draft".  Our record with DC is 37-86.  6-10 is our 2nd best season in 8 years of Caldwell leadership.  These are the FACTS.

Heal up young man and come back even better.
Marsh will take his spot. Interested to see what the team does with the roster spot.
Respect the game.  Play with a sense of urgency. 


1.)  Take care of the ball.  Win the turnover battle.

2.)  It's all about 3rd down.  Win on 3rd down to win the game.

3.) Playmakers make plays.  The only reason that you put your uniform on is to make plays. In order to EARN your paycheck, you must make plays.  

Learn from the great collapse of 2023.

IIRC he went on IR because of a core muscle injury (that required surgery). He is a WILL backer though so he wouldn't be playing Jacob's SAM position regardless.

Bad for him, but the Jags are better without him on the field. They need speed to make up for the zone, so going away from a 3rd LB is better.

Lol you couldn't be more wrong. 

Jacobs played mainly in base defense.. He's the SAM.. Now Marsh is taking his spot and it's going to be even worse on those early downs. Jacobs was solid and a decent blitzer. This team is going to run 3 LBs in base regardless of who's out there.. They just got even worse without Jacobs.

They are better without the SAM on the field. Jacobs was bad on Thursday missing gaps and being slow/getting blocked. Yes the backup is worse. I'm not saying the backup should play, they should be in nickel if they want to play zone. They need speed to make up for the scheme playing off and having to come up to tackle in space.

Jacobs barely played in that game... He got hurt on literally the 7th play of the game.. You're confusing him with somebody else, likely the rookie Chaisson.

They run plenty (they're in it most of the game) of nickel Defense with only 2 LBs, but this team is going to run 3 LBs on early downs regardless. It's their base 4-3 and they're going to continue to do it.

Wouldn't chaisson be the ideal choice to move to sam on early downs as he was a OLB at LSU?

7th round draft pick. Kind of a shame we are relying on so many late round picks and non-drafted players to begin with.

I would put Chaisson at the Sam

I'm pretty happy with our 6th round QB and undrafted RB.

Yeah and Jacobs has been playing well since arriving. 
I think hitting on late round gems is a good thing.

I don't think we rely on too many of them either. Probably have 3-4 late round or UDFA starters total. I'm willing to bet that's about normal for most teams.

Murray has shown the same up-and-downs, and everyone has crowned him the next great QB.

Others have already said it, but no one would be doubting him if he was drafted in the first round. Every QB makes mistakes, especially new ones, but to hold a couple bad games against him is absurd considering that he has several accomplishments in his short career (accuracy % in a game, 4 comeback wins, etc.).
