I think that you should line up your five best guys & go tell him personally - then, let us all know how it went.

Really, I mean really? Everyone seems to have their panties in a bunch over the crying thing. SOme make fun, others take offense to it, it's over and done with, let it go.

The team is fighting for a playoff spot, has one of the premier running backs in the league and a bunch of rookies making big plays on both sides of the ball.  If you can't get excited about that, you don't belong at the stadium.

They havnt played like they Want or even deserve to be in the playoffs.

Sport this mentallity is what's wrong in Jacksonville. The team is winning, in the 6th place in the conference and in control of a playoff birth.

There are no Charleston Southerns or division II teams in the NFL.

Complaining about a winning team is just ignorant. 
And though I long to embrace, I will not replace my priorities: humour, opinion, a sense of compassion, creativity and a distaste for fashion.

Iv watched every game and expect more out of them. They are playing sloppy ball.
Don't like my oppion? Tough I'm going to have it and you are nobody to tell me its right or wrong.

Yep. There is no such thing as a bad win in the NFL.

Just like my opinion of so called 'fans' that hold back support because they think a winning team isn't good enough.

Sloppy or not they are winning and that's all that matters. The talk around the league is what surprise the Jags have been. Playing meaningful games in December is exciting... and almost shocking during a rebuilding year.

I've just been browsing the league standings, and this weekend is CRUCIAL.  We're 1 game ahead of 4 TEAMS in the conference.  We need to blow this one open to give us some cushion going into the Colts-Pats stretch. 

One thing that is upsetting is that our point differential is -48 while Houston has +11. It's due to those losses to Seattle and San Fran, but we've only had one convincing win this year (37-17 against TN)

All the wins have been against teams with losing records, which is not a promising sign, IMO.

You guys will get your reality check this Sunday and it won't involve legos. ;D

Miami is definitely a dangerous team right now. I'm hoping our strong home performance will continue this weekend... and next Thursday.

If they beat Miami and Cleveland, they will be 9-7 and still have no wins over teams with winning records. It will also be likely good enough for a wild card spot based on conference record.

Do you realize the 99 Jaguars went 14-2 with no wins over teams with winning records?

I didn't know that. Also we have only played 2 teams this season with winning records both losses.

It caught up with them when they played Tennessee and lost 33-14 at home.  They set a NFL record that year by becoming the only 3 loss them to lose all 3 games to the same opponent.  That's one that may last just as long as the 72' Dolphins streak.

Lake, you're really surprising me with those anti Jags comments.  I'll steal a statement from earlier and say I hope the Jags get Japanese on the Dolphins on Sunday.
