If the Jags and Dolphins both win out, Miami would win the AFC East outright.

Although it felt and looked like a Dolphins home game in my section

how...did you see a bunch of empty orange seats after halftime?

A few, but not enough to keep them off local tv or stimulate rumors of a move to LA.

I take it back Steve....apparently the Jags are still #2 although it makes no sense to me why.

Because we have a better conference record.

Lake, lets be fair...Miami-Ft. Lauderdale is a metro area of about 5 million people and they still struggle to fill their stadium....and don't even get me started on attendance for Marlins games in that stadium...it is quite possibly the worst sports town in the country!

Lol, you started it.  The worst would probably be Atlanta.

I do seem to recall some sort of avatar bet going on.

Congrats on your fins winning, Lake! The Jags are just not up to playoff caliber, even if we still lead the fins for the final wildcard spot.

I still love me some Jaguars Football!

Don't worry, that lead will only last till Thursday.  In any event, if they both win out, they'll both be in because Jax would have to beat New England, who would then lose the tiebreaker with Miami for the AFC East.

Anyway, the Jags really aren't good (especially offensively), considering the Dolphins are average.  Outside of the saftey blowing the coverage on that Holt pass, it never felt like the Jags were going to drive across the field to score.  Instead it was suprising when the offense did not go three and out.  

After watching them yesterday, I'm still not a Del Rio fan, but have to admit he's done a great job this year of squeezing blood out of a turnip.

Maybe if we try to bunch up and run it up the middle one more time on third down it will work. How many times did the coaching staff say that to one another yesterday.  Hey give it a try but if the other team is shutting that play down try something else.

I agree Lake.  This team is in a rebuilding.  The fact that they are even in the playoff race is remarkable.  Same with the Fins actually.  Miami looks like it has found its quarterback.  Both teams have the seeds to do something better next year.

Yeah, it was pretty predictable.

Once again another exciting game. The Jags were lucky to still have a shot in the 4th quarter up to the last minute.

It was great to see the stadium as full as it was regardless of who they were there to root for.

Lake, you are the victor and I will await your avatar pic selection.  :'(

Henne didn't impress during preseason but he now looks like a keeper.  They are 7-3 since he replaced Pennington and the WRs don't look as bad as they did in the beginning of the season.  However, it sucks that Ronnie Brown is out.  The wildcat package added an extra dimension to their offensive game.

Shwaz, good man.  I'll find the proper avatar for you later today.

Henne was very good in college. He picked apart the Gators in the Outback Bowl a few years ago. Parcells definitely knew what he was getting. Not sure why he picked Pat White though. Looks like a wasted pick to me.
