Jax Jaguars outgunned: At 4-8, season done?

in Sports/Top Headlines by

The 4-7 Jacksonville Jaguars needed a win against last place Tennessee on Sunday. And so did Coach Gus Bradley. According to a chart put out by fivethirtyeight.com, Coach Bradley is (barring a turnaround) the second most likely coach in the NFL to get axed at the end of the year. After Sunday’s shootout, a 42 to 39 loss to a last place team that hadn’t won at home in over a year, Genial Gus might be in what Ludacris would…

Jacksonville Jaguars must win in Tennessee Sunday

in Sports/Top Headlines by

It’s been a good run for the Jacksonville Jaguars, but here’s the reality. At 4-7, they’ve lost too many winnable games, and now have nothing but must wins stretched before them through the rest of the season. This includes Sunday’s tilt at Tennessee. The offensive players, specifically Blake Bortles and his targets, have catalyzed many fantasy football teams toward playoff runs. Which is great; there have been years where that couldn’t have been said. The Jaguars, however, are two games off…

in Sports/Top Headlines by

On “Salute to Service” Day at EverBank Field, it was appropriate that the Jacksonville Jaguars hosted the San Diego Chargers.

in Sports/Top Headlines by

The Jacksonville Jaguars looked to break their streak of thirteen straight road losses in a trip to a fellow 2-6 team in Baltimore. And they pulled it off. There was reason to hope they would do just that going into the game. The Ravens were without Steve Smith, and the Ravens pass defense had been one of the worst in the league going into Sunday. Of course, the Jaguars’ defense had been exploitable also. The Ravens, in going for it…

Jacksonville Jaguars, strafed by NY Jets, tumble to 2-6

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Through twenty nine minutes of the first half, the Jacksonville Jaguars’ offense looked flat. That changed when the Jags got the ball just before halftime, and Allen Hurns ate Antonio Cromartie‘s lunch with two deep catches on one of those two minute drill drives, in which the Jaguars’ offense shines. This put them back in the game; 14-10 deficit, and that touchdown getting some boos from the Jets’ faithful. The first half was mixed. Eric Decker won matchup after matchup, driving…

Gus Bradley: ‘We could have been more consistent’

in Sports by

The Jacksonville Jaguars are a team struggling for respect even in their own backyard, as they enter the third year of Head Coach Gus Bradley and his three-year plan to bring the team to respectability. It’s one thing to go to a Steelers game and see road jerseys. You expect that. But to go to a game against the Carolina Panthers and see old Muhsin Muhammad and Jake Delhomme gear indicates that there isn’t as much engagement as there could be.…
