....If the Texans get Bridgewater, we can pretty much just go to sleep for another ten years....as the division will be Texans/ Colts dominated.

I still don't see anything special about Andrew Luck. Look like a good QB, but nothing great. Maybe I'm wrong.

You are.


He joined a two win team and took them to the playoffs his first two years while throwing for more yards than anyone in the history of the game during that period.

Giants missed field goal!

---

Shock the world

Here comes that throat punch I was talking about!

Too bad for you the colts are the ones doing it.

---

No...I'm comparing losing football teams.

 

JDR and Mel Tucker were fired after that 2011 season, just like the Colts coach.

 

Gene Smith wasn't fired for failing to instill a winning culture.  That last win over Indy was supposed to ensure that winning culture be instilled.

 

He was fired because he failed to bring in winning talent.

 

Actually you could argue that Jeans Myth was fired for failing to instill a winning culture.  When you over-draft and over pay mediocre players, you're instilling a mediocre culture...

How's Sabby Piscatelli looking out there to you?

---

Ahhh, why did MoJo do a 360?

---

20 years?  Were the Jags around in 1993?  

Yes.

---

Yes, yes. We all know your realistic attitude. 

 

fixed

---

Kerry Taylor has been looking well lately.

---

I wonder what the organization has in store for Stanzi and Matt Scott.

Fight to the death for the right to be 3rd string?

---

You are.

Still not impressed....  He's got a long ways to go before he's a HOF'er...  Let's not act like he's Peyton Manning quite yet.  He's beatable.  and the c'lots are beatable...  That's just the lay of the land, as of RIGHT NOW.  Which is what we are talking about

So Anchorman, what you are saying is that there is a correlation between drafting superior talent and having a winning culture?

 

Hmmm.....

---

 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!

Yes.

 

Really?  Not 1995?

---

fixed

You're fixed?

---

Stop telegraphing throws Henne you bum.... batted pass # 1,001.

---

No pain, no gain.

Not so sure about that...  But OK.  I have confidence in the HC and the GM untill they prove otherwise.  In the middle of a rebuild...  This squad will look very different next year in terms of personnel.  Let's at least wait till Week 1 of 2014 before we hand over the next decade to the caveman and the t'horns

 

I have confidence in them too....

 

but when the environment gets too tough for them to really compete for the division title, i.e. Luck/ Bridgewater in the division, thats not really indicative of those 2 doing bad, just circumstance. 

 

The Jags should have lost every game they needed to in 2011 to prevent the Colts from getting Luck, and same thing this year with Bridge/ and the Texans. 

---

Yep that's Henne for ya!

Hmmm.....

 

That's way to simplistic, and you know it.  This isn't the thread to discuss it though...  I see where you are going, and look forward to argueing my point...  But I'm too busy having a drink and trying (very hard but still trying) to enjoy this game....

Really?  Not 1995?

The Jaguars were established on November 30, 1993. So they very much existed 20 years ago. They even got sued by the Jaguar car company, kinda hard to get sued if you don't exist.
