Halfway through the preseason and the board is almost dead.

You guys can't seriously be working for a living  while you should be posting, right?

So hard to read ask the negativity over two games with guys who will be cut in two weeks.

Looking forward to Thursday, see if the chemistry we seen on the practises shows up.

Just the way foles is throwing the football in practice, I think we have no reason but to be excited.

Pretty much the same way I feel. Lets just get through Thursday's game, get the starters a couple of decent series and then bubble wrap them all for the next 2 weeks until week 1.

Yeah, I don't know... I still don't feel comfortable with Foles playing this Thursday with Wester and Ogbuehi as the starting tackles. Just seems to be asking for trouble, but we got nothing else to roll out.

To me, at this point, why would either guy be the starting?

Unless Cam and Taylor are somehow not healthy enough to get even limited reps in a preseason game, I don't see the point.

Meanwhile, speaking of rookies starting, Marrone had this to say...


Quote:*Jaguars Head Coach Marrone said he would be willing to start drafted rookies such as linebacker Quincy Williams and tight end Josh Oliver in the regular-season opener even if they have played no preseason games. Williams (knee) and Oliver (hamstring) have missed both games. The two third-round selections were projected to play key roles, with Williams working with the starters throughout the on-field portion of the offseason program and early in camp, and Oliver also working with the first-team often during that time. “I think you’re going to put them in there if they give you the best chance to win,” Marrone said. “If they don’t perform well, then you go to Plan B and get someone else in there right away and move on from there.” Marrone added that wouldn’t be the ideal scenario. “I don’t think anyone’s OK with a guy that’s never really played before,” he said. “I think you’re always going to question what’s going to happen, what’s it going to be like … but sometimes you have to put what you feel are the best players put there.” Marrone said both players are on schedule in their rehabilitation.

Go jags

The negativity has been a constant through 4 iterations of this board.  It's never going to change.  There were people who complained as we were in the midst of our early playoff runs because not every game was a blowout.  

The sky is falling if the team loses meaningless games.  

Looking forward to getting a brief glimpse of our starters on Thursday.  Get them in, get them out quickly, and they wrap them back in bubble wrap for a couple of weeks.
Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I am interested in seeing if they load the box if Foles can strike deep. I also can't wait to see the defense. Miami's offensive line has not been looking too good so far and with our pass rush, It may be a tough night for them. We should be able to get pressure without blitzing.

See I was actually thinking the opposite, gone are the days of Blkyn and TMD, that’s why it’s so quite around here

I don't necessarily object to negative analysis if it is well reasoned and reflective of fact.

Contriving an argument just to be negative is annoying as hell, just as being Stepford fans.

One thing that mystifies me is how so much can be made out of preseason games.

I seems like Marrone is extremely conseritive when he says players are on schedule.  It looked like Jawaan and Cam had no chance for the Miami game and he was hoping for opening day.The next day they are praticing and it looks like they will play in Thursdays game.  So I hope it turns out that Oliver and Williams will be playing in the opener.

Yikes!

Jarrod Wilson played a little bit in the 2nd preseason game. He wasn't going to play at first (since he's a starter), but Marrone said that Wilson came to him personally and said he wanted to play. That he felt he needed the reps. I remember them talking about it right before kick off.

He wasn't out there for very long. Two series maybe? But he did get a little action.
