Really hope this is a trend. A Forbes article on 2010 NFL blackouts and not a single mention of Jacksonville.

Higher Ticket Prices Mean More NFL Blackouts

Last August NFL commissioner Roger Goodell felt up to 20% of the league's games could be blacked out. After only 22 (8.6%) did not sell out at least 72 hours before kickoff Goodell and his bosses must have gotten deliriously drunk. According to USA Today 18 teams are increasing ticket prices for the 2010 season versus 8 the prior season. This means television blackouts will likely be above 10% this season. I doubt Tampa Bay and San Diego will sell out. Miami will have trouble too unless they get off to a fast start. Even fans with personal seat licenses (where turnover is typically around 2%) having been dumping their seats in places like Houston, Chicago and Pittsburgh. The Jets have been unable to unload some 10,000 of them at their new stadium. The economy stinks. Goodell might have been a year early in his prediction.

Jags are now over 80% of the way towards selling enough general bowl tickets to avoid blackouts.
