MNF Titans vs Jags thread..go JAGS!!!!!!!!!
38 replies
padre31luxury_boxOPWell, on the surface this is a "nothing" game, but it really is not.
Here is why:
Titans are tied with the Jags at 3-2, tied for third in the AFCS, but we play the Titans this year, and chances are good the AFC South will be in the mix for the second wildcard slot behind the loser between the patriots and the jets for the AFCE crown.
MikeHonchosubscriberThe Heat are playing.
Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.

Monday night in Jacksonville? yikes
What else is there to do in J-Ville on a Monday Night?
Seriously..:D
right now:
Texans 4-2
Colts 4-2
Ravens 4-2
Titans 3-2
Jags 3-2
Dolphins 3-2
As for the Heat...bro the season runs until June..2011...
Desidesforum_veteranI’m going to alternate between this game, the Yankees game, and Fallout 3. The Jags have a real shot to pull this one out. Should be interesting.

padre31luxury_boxAnd Vince Young is down, grabbing his knee with Fisher out on the field.
If VY avoided at least a MCL he should build a widow a home..sheesh
Desidesforum_veteranDavid Garrard is “shaken up”, Trent Edwards is coming in.

Not like they have much to lose by playing him, the Titans defense looks really strong.
Desidesforum_veteranEdwards is leading a semi-nice 2 minute drive here. Jaguars know how to get out of bounds. Maybe we should have traded Ted Ginn to them.

Desidesforum_veteranSo much for that. The Jags just turned over the ball. Marcedes Lewis can’t hold on.

Jags are atrocious...They should have taken Tebow.
Tebow needs 2-3 years on the bench. Jacksonville would have potentially let him start week 1. Would have been a completely wasted draft pick.

Pandarillaforum_veteranSo are they activating the suspension rule effective immediately or the suspensions themselves?
padre31luxury_boxWell, what has come home for me is how important the next 3 games are, all are AFC games, all are against teams we figure to compete with for a WC playoff slot.
And 4-2 with a win against the Steelers would put us in the drivers seat heading up to Baltimore.

Don’t count on that Steelers win.
Wow, Edwards with the pick. The Jags might get shut out at home. Sad.

Why not? Do you really think there will be 3 ST scores in a qtr by the Steelers?

It's Trent Edwards, what would you expect?

No, but I think the Steelers will be able to score in tight situations on us, and I think their defense will give the offense fits.

A better question is, what did the Jaguars expect?

And I think Nolan handled them for 3 qtrs last yr with a much less talented D, and our offense is built to challenge teams like the steelers.

Gives a good perspective on how great it was that Chad Pennington signed with Miami after his release by the Jets..Qb's who can play are rarely cut in the NFL.

I see no one on our offense besides Brandon Marshall who can seriously challenge the Steelers. Conversely, Troy Polamalu isn’t losing sleep over the prospect of Chad Henne embarrassing him.
Is Sims-Walker still on the Jaguars roster? Guy hasn’t even been thrown to tonight as far as I can tell. Edit: There he is. Incomplete low pass to Sims-Walker.

Hmm, we run the ball remember? Ricky, Ronnie all that?

He had maybe 1 catch earlier in the game, the Jags Qb's are so crappy he is kind of wasted on them.
texanphinaticforum_veteranJags feeling Buffalo's pain tonight, classic Edwards lol. How in the name of God did Nix/Gailey rest with him at their QB spot and no tackles?

The Steelers rush defense leads the NFL, yielding only 64 yards per game and a 2.7 yards per rush average.

They suck anyway. Who'd they take? Tyson Alualu...
He would have taken his lumps early, allowing them to beef up their line in the draft next year.
I just can't discount him having lit up the SEC like he did his whole career. It could be a case of talent (ala Matt Leinardt) and coaching/system (ala Timmy Chang) but I doubt it. The game will slow down for him when he gets enough experience. I think a lot of teams will regret not taking him.
I felt the same way about Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees when he first came out of Purdue.

I’m saying that Tebow would never have developed into a quarterback worthy of the pick if they had drafted him.

Exactly, this idea "..don't take Tebow, he is not ready, take Tyson Alualu instead!!!"
Is yet another example of how the NFL does things, at times, is dysfunctional.
every sack Cam Wake notches, every first down DBess picks up, is more evidence for that fact.
