I sure hope we dont win meaningless games again we have no chance of doing anything in the playoffs if somehow we manage to get there. Lose out please jags

Ive been a jags fan since the first day followed my man Natrone means from the chargers and have been a fan since. Why on earth would you want us to win any more games this year not trying to be an [BLEEP] just curious?

I hate losing.  I hate the losing mentality. I despise giving up.  I think forfeiting is completely lacking in character and integrity. It's reserved for the weak. 

I also know that the tanking myth is pure fantasy in this league. Far too many coaches, players, scouts and front office personnel have their jobs on the line according to a team's record.  You aren't going to get them to just lay down and lose with their jobs and careers at stake. 

When Natrone Means' Jags started the 1996 season at 3 WINS AND 6 LOSSES - did you just want them to quit?  Do you think he did?  Do you think Coughlin did?  Hell no. 

Screw draft position. There will be good players available when we are on the board - if not - then move up. 

Losing intentionally is for the weak.

Cannot agree more. It seems to be either SB or the #1 pick. I hate 'tanking', I hate the though a team of professional athletes getting paid millions of dollars can agree to just lose games. I think it sends all the wrong messages to the players, coaches, fans and the rest of the league. I've lost count of how many posts I've seen saying 'we shouldn't have taken Bortles or Fournette that high' but now we will pick a future HOF.

I get people are disappointed and somehow we've gone from 3-1 to 3-6. Everyone on this team has had a bad game at some point. No one's hands are clean and I don't think Shad is going to be giving guys season after season to get things right, guys have jobs on the line this last 7 games and while we may not make the playoffs, you still play for individual pride and the fans.

This game comes down to how many DB's we have healthy. Connor is in the concussion protocol so may not play but they have so many weapons in the air that if we keep up with the same mistakes and blown coverage them it's going to be a long Sunday.

But while we have been bad, this team has talent and we are going to put it together one week and give someone a proper beating.

Let's go Jags!
