Best path for Jaguars at 1-6 is nine more losses and an elite QB prospect

By: Hays Carlyon The Jaguars showed heart. They played an exciting game. Now, no more scares, fellas. Lose out. Do this city a favor and finish 1-15 so we can draft either Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence (longshot) or Ohio State’s Justin Fields (incredibly likely). The Jaguars rallied from a 16-0 deficit to take a 29-22 lead late in the third quarter before losing at the Los Angeles Chargers 39-29 on Sunday. At 1-6, you’re dead. We all know it. However, our […]

Shad Khan can fix the Jaguars with these firings and hirings

By: Hays Carlyon Fire everybody. This is an easy call for Jaguars owner Shad Khan to make in light of another embarrassing performance. The Jaguars lost to Detroit 34-16 Sunday at TIAA Bank Field. The Jaguars have lost five consecutive games, giving up at least 30 points in each game. You owe it to your loyal customers, Shad. The die-hard few you have left. Your patience has already forced many fans that love the Jaguars to go away. You need […]

Jaguars defense tried, but offense, kicking game failures lead to loss

By: Hays Carlyon Take a bow, Jaguars defense. Yes, I’m serious. There are three phases of the game and the defense “shined” brightest in a 30-14 loss at Houston on Sunday. The special teams were a huge negative thanks to an atrocious performance by kicker Stephen Hauschka, who missed wide from 24 yards and was short from 49. Short! In a Dome! Jaguars coach Doug Marrone said after the game Hauschka had “no pop in his leg.” Thanks for the […]

Jaguars list three key defenders as questionable for Sunday’s game at Houston

By: Hays Carlyon The Jaguars could be without three key defenders on Sunday when they travel to take on AFC South rival Houston. The team listed defensive end Josh Allen, outside linebacker Myles Jack and cornerback CJ Henderson as questionable after Friday’s practice. Allen would seem to be the longest shot, as he recovers from a knee injury. Allen didn’t practice Wednesday or Thursday. Jaguars coach Doug Marrone said Allen will be evaluated again Saturday. Jack (ankle) and Henderson (shoulder) […]

Jaguars horrid defense spoiling potential of great young offense

By: Hays Carlyon The Jaguars are probably dead. They’ve lost their last three games. We were having fun after the Colts win to open the season and the close loss at Tennessee a week later continued to spark enthusiasm. That has all been spoiled by losses to bad teams. The latest came Sunday when the Jaguars lost at Cincinnati 33-25. The Bengals were 2-16-1 in their last 19 games. The Jaguars had a mini-bye after losing to Miami 31-13 in […]

Jaguars defense hopeless and horrible

By: Hays Carlyon The Jaguars aren’t finding a defense this season. Nothing can solve this. Sure, Jaguars defensive coordinator Todd Wash should be fired. I know it. You know it. Dogs know it. But we also know Jaguars coach Doug Marrone won’t do that. He didn’t do it two years ago when the Jaguars lost at Dallas 40-7 in Week 6 of the 2018 season and he isn’t going to do it now. That day, the Jaguars gave up three […]
