Doug’s first season:
- Franchise record for Ws in a HC’s first season with the team.
- Won on the West Coast
- Broke 0-162 games of not winning while be down 7+ with >2:00 left.
- Biggest comeback win in Jags history.
- 1st win @ Tenn. since ‘13
- 1st road AFCS win since ‘17.
After the Travis Etienne fumble, Trevor Lawrence attempted ONE pass, an incompletion on 3rd & 5 to Christian Kirk.
Last 3 Drives: 1 pass, 7 rushes, 2 sacks.
“London games help keep Jags viable in Jacksonville”
- Owner on his 5th coach in 10 years, 3rd in 13 months, and has averaged 13 losses/season since taking ownership
Throwing your new DC under the bus Wk 1 after his unit more or less outplayed the one you tend to oversee the most and kept your team from having the doors blown off it, is an interesting move- I’m sure this will only get better.
Doug and Press coach like assholes, and Trevor is clearly running on Toradol and adrenaline but idc those dudes just ran a gauntlet for a month and not a damn one of us would’ve called 5-2 after 1-2 so fuck it, Go Jags.
Someone needs to answer for why they stopped attacking downfield and running Tank between the tackles- and instead went back to the same horizontal bad scheme that killed them last year.
Nah, see, I thought Trevor was playing lights out ball. The problem here is why is this staff constantly treating him like he’s Bortles? Cause that’s what happened here today.
@BCBCouch
He has never been "The Guy" and will never be. He needs everything in place around him to succeed, like in first half. Once adversity hit in the 2nd culminating with the fumble he didn't lead the team out of the funk but joined right in. Look at his body language
Meyers Leonard said he didnt know what that word meant. That would be like imagine you adopt a kid who never heard rap before. And you play him some Drake & he asks "Can you play some Benny the Butcher" and youre like "WHAT?!" and he's like "huh sorry dont know what I just said"
The Jags hired a SB coach who spent every hour allegedly eat, sleep, and breathing football to make their personnel better, and he drafted a RB 4th overall instead of two generational QBs, and ran off a premium edge rusher and the best CB in the NFL.
Are you telling me a Super Bowl coach who spends all day everyday thinking about how he can give his team the best chance of winning, knows more than all the talking heads? Preposterous!

First instinct is to shoot to kill a teenage girl with a kitchen knife at her own home, but they wanna negotiate with teenage boys packing extended-clip AR-15s in public. FOH

135 days ago, 58 people were murdered & close to 1,000 were wounded in the middle of the Vegas strip. The thoughts and prayers thing isnt really working.
Kirk & Scherff sign with the Chargers for whatever unGodly amount it ends up being, and it’s a circle jerk on here amongst NFL Twitter, but since it’s the Jags…🤷🏻♂️
The Jags played as the wild card team 4/7 times they’ve made the playoffs in their history. They had to go on the road with records of 11-5 (2x) and 12-4 (1x) in those games. Ain’t no switching up now cause your squad is going to have to travel.
The NFL must see the absurdity in the Jaguars and Bucs potentially hosting playoff games. Fix it. Fourth-best division winner no longer guaranteed home playoff game. Easy fix.
Minshew played his ass off in the 4th quarter, did something no QB has done for you in I cant even fucking remember, and you do THAT.
In the words of Sen Marks, "That's why you're the fucking Jacksonville Jaguars".
Source tells me that Byron Leftwich is the
#jaguars
pick but the hold up is over who will have control of the roster. Leftwich wants Trent Baalke out and the
#Jaguars
to hire Adrian Wilson who is the Vice President of pro scouting with Cardinals.
The Jags rookie QB who had more wins and Pepsi ROTW awards in league history, and the Jags rookie DE who had double digit sacks, led all rookies in sacks, and was a Pro Bowler..both lost in their respective award categories
The Jags are running it back with the OL that couldn’t get a yard in Nashville with the division on the line on two consecutive plays and the opponent trying to go home.
Every team with joint practices ended up brawling- except the Jags & Falcons who casually enjoyed each others’ company as they embrace the race to 5 win seasons.
- Jags get down two scores early.
- Trevor completes >60% and no TDs
- Urban gives post-game diatribe about expanding the CFP when asked about why Carlos Hyde received 25 carries when down 17.
Saved everyone the three hours.
How Urban handled the only three quality offensive players on his team in 6 months on the job:
- Tell Chark he plays like shit/give him a CFL-level position coach.
- Treat Robinson like he was a walk-on who should be happy he’s on scholarship.
- Turn Lawrence into Tim Couch

We need a Gilbert Arenas twist to the storyline..

Lawrence is a NFL star in the making. He’s a national seller of the product. They have a national brand HC who is working a “miracle”, and looking to finish it off on national tv against Henry in his home town. Can’t see it NOT being SNF tbh.
This isnt the David Garrard Jags.
Once the Browns finalize the reworked Odell Beckham Jr. contract, they will release him and he will go on waivers, where other teams will have the opportunity to claim him.
But the Browns and OBJ’s time together is coming to a rapid end.
