Please. The season is over. False hope is worse than no hope. We are ranked lower than the freaking PANTHERS, for God's sake. Accept and embrace the role of spoiler. Its fun to frustrate other teams ambitions.

Don't think we are the worst team in the league but I truly believe that we will be picking in the top 5 NFL draft next season.

I get that viewpoint. I'd only counter by saying this team has taken on it but for whatever reason  isn't playing to it at the moment. We're closer to a good team than a bad team and I'd like to see what a couple of wins in a row could do to us.

I'm not saying everything will suddenly look amazing, just want to see what this team can do when it's pointed in the right direction again.

This is what a team looks like when the coach has lost the team.

Yes it does. And we've seen it before with Marrone and Meyer. How much of the locker room has turned and how many looker room leaders no one of us really know but that positive atmosphere and happy that Doug built when he took over doesn't feel there right now. And even from Doug.

We need Pug Dederson back.

I hate to say it but it looks like that ship has sailed.  I'd love for the Jags to be the 2nd team in NFL history to make the playoffs after starting 0-4 but I haven't seen anything in the first 4 weeks to think we can.  Hopefully Doug can prove me wrong.

I said it last week and I know I'm overdosing on the hopium and relying on the good stuff we've seen this team do on the past and ignoring the last 9 games to see us have any chance of turning this season into something.

My biggest worry is Dougs attitude at the moment. Guy looks defeated, out of ideas and out of fight. I'd love to see him be the guy to turn it around and the next 3 games are the kind of games you'd want when your on a run this bad.

But like you say, and I fear your right, that ship may have already sailed.

4 wins or 3-1 dramatically changes the complexion of the season. Gotta get the first one though to rattle off others.

My son said he heard that Kansas City is interested in Christian Kirk since Rasheed Rice was injured. 

I would hate to see him go but what a big break for Kirk if this happens.

There were a couple throws to Kirk on Sunday where it looked like he gave up on the ball...

We are 1-9 in our last 10 regular season games. We shouldn’t expect to beat anybody except maybe the Patriots. We suck until we don’t.

The Jags have lost 9 out of the last 10 games. Why do people think that this team/coaching staff/GM is going to somehow turn it around and start playing winning football? Peterson has lost the locker room and clearly doesn't care. Baalke should have been fired two years ago. There is no real reason for optimism at this point.

Shad Khan just plain doesn't care about the wins or losses. The Jags are pulling in a huge amount of revenue, he's gotten the taxpayers to fund the stadium, and the Jags team itself has gone up dramatically in value.

100% horse [BLEEP]

Why the hell would he address the players and coaches and tell them he expects wins and he expects them now??

He's tired of this garbage.

If Shad truly cared, he wouldn't have kept Baalke after last season.  Shad only cares about $$$, so why would he fire a GM and pay him the rest of the contract when he has to hire another one and pay more $$$? 

The saying is "Actions speak louder than words" and that's what everyone should be looking at.  Words are empty.  The lack of action is telling.

Lack of action, my [BLEEP]

Just because you think Baalke is the problem doesn't mean he agrees and it doesn't mean he hasn't acted

he's given Baalke and Pederson free rein to spend HUGE money to improve the roster and they've bungled the opportunity to get the right talent and develop the talent they've acquired

Just wait - accountability is coming

Sitting here like you are and saying Kahn thinks differently than the words coming out of his mouth over and over again doesn't make you right 

I personally don't think he's lying and I think he's seriously pissed

Shad Khan has the worst record of any owner in NFL history.  Accountability? Are you [BLEEP] kidding me?  

If I was the worst at my job, I would fully expect to get fired.  No, take that back - I would have the decency to resign.  These bozos are laughing their way to the bank.  If idiots like you can't see that, then you're just as stupid as they are.
