The Detroit Lions and the San Diego Chargers have each received 24-hour extensions of the 72-hour deadline for selling out all non-premium seats to their respective home openers.

In Detroit, 1,700 tickets need to be sold, down from 4,000 on Wednesday.

In a release, the Chargers attribute their extension to the fact that they played at Oakland on Monday night. The two concepts, of course, have no logical connection, especially for the first home game of the regular season.

Meanwhile, the Jaguars did not request more time to sell 17,000 unsold non-premium tickets to the home opener against the Cardinals. As a result, the game will be televised locally.

The Jaguars are sort of the forgotten Florida NFL Franchise, they don't draw from the panhandle nor S Georgia, their fanbase is basically a 5 county area around JVille.

Wayne Weaver has said publically that he would take Tim Tebow in the 2010 draft merely to bump attendance.

Was it that long ago that the Jags were winning playoff games?

i disagree. the jags fanbase is not 5 counties. more like 1 or 2. no one in flagler county, volusia county, or orange county likes the jags.

When most of your fanbase is made up of bandwagon riders what do you expect?
