Smallest crowd of Khan Era sees Jaguars lose to Rams

The smallest announced crowd in the Shad Khan Era witnessed another big step back for the Jaguars today.
Their special teams a debacle, their defense unable to force a fourth-quarter stop and their p

Boycott in full effect.

Because the local crowd has been burned too many times. The cost of the ticket is bad enough, but if you actually attend the game you will spend an extra $50 minimum...and still get burned.

I guess no one looked at the shots from Pittsburg last week. Even at the start of the game the place had empty seats everywhere.

I think the jags empty seats is deceiving. People buy cheap nosebleeds to go hang out at the budzone and fanduel to get wasted and look to get some.

this team doesnt deserve to sell out home games or even have close to full capacity to be honest

time and time again the jags have a chance to truly take hold of the division and to show that this isnt the jaguars of the past decade

and time and time again they come out flat and not ready to go... special teams was an absolute joke today, our run D was once again a joke today, a clear sign we didnt come ready to play

I guess 1 win and the team thinks they are too good to come out and play hard

Crowd wasn't bad. Basically it was what you get for games like this.

The rams had almost no bisiting fans which also contributed to it.

I think they mean the smallest crowd of Khan's era at Everbank..

There are no excuses for special teams mistakes, but they would not have been so deadly if officials were smart.

I understand that.  Keep in mind they bought up fan protest in the article.  I'm saying that attendance is down in even the hardcore towns aka Pittsburg last week.

You have a team that hasn't won the division in 18 years, the worst home record in the NFL over the last 6 or 7 years, an owner/players who irritated a large portion of a military city recently, a visiting team from 2,000 miles away that brought very few fans, and it's a late game. Not much more to be said about attendance.

Have to say that while sad, this is true. Neither LA team has a real fan base at this point, and some of the crowd usually comes from the away. For the size of the market LA just isn't what its hyped up to be.

I get your point, but NFL teams should't need a large number of visiting team fans to sell out, especially in a reduced capacity stadium.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!

Yup. For a team tied for 1st place with a defense full of stars and a running back who could possibly win OROTY, the crowd size was a bit worrisome. I hope that when there’s a QB here that can lead this team to some wins, the fans come back.

This will ultimately kill attendance in sports

How do you negatively impact attendance? Easy, have 2 winning seasons in the last 17, have players criticize the fan base (A-Rob and some others prior to this year) and (without getting political) have players take a stand that alienates a certain percentage of the fan base. After years, the fan support may finally be starting to erode.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.
