Jaguars 2011 Ticket Sales

[johnnyman]

The Buc's are a very sad case. When you have a metro population of that size and you can barely get 40,000 people to buy tickets, you are in some deep stew. And the Buc's are not open at all like the jaguar organization is. The buc's owner said they are "hopeful" that the blackout's will be lifted this season.

Atleast WW and the organization cares enough to let the fans know what is happenng all the way. And I give a pat on the back to the Jag's marketing team. They have been working HARD. I have never seen this many Jag billboards in town before.

That is really the main reason I bought tix this year for the first time.  They are really trying and I wanted to be part of that.  I think this will be alot of fun.  I am excited.  GO JAGS!!!

Paul Kuarsky, the writer for the ESPN AFC South blog, and respected reporter, backed up Bianchi's article.  I believe we're seeing a momentum swing, which I for one am very happy to see.  That, along with the 1,500 tickets sold today to the UNF students... great day to be a Jag.  Long live Jaguar football!

I just got to work this morning and Prudential is Subsidizing tickets. The employee price is $25.00  I will definately be buying two extras for the Titans game. As of this morning we have 10,960 remaining for Sept 11th! Lets keep this number going down.

FYI- I offically hate garrad. I have been defending him for years, now I am over it. He has been outplayed by back ups the past two weeks. He can not get rid of the ball and when he does, its over thrown. On a side note, I am happy we drafted Blaine or I would be EXTREMELY worried right about now. He had a great BTW.

[Non-RedNeck Westsider]

I'm not completely defending Garrard, but think back to last year - when the handful of deep throws were called he was known for underthrowing wide open recievers. 

This year, it's the opposite, but it's the better miss.

The clock is ticking on Garrard. I think Gabbert would be starting had the lockout not happened. He's been with the team less than a month. He's made some rookie mistakes but that has to be expected but he shows alot of poise and pretty good decision making. In a normal offseason, he could have practically lived at the stadium right after he gets drafted. That set him back months and opened the door for Garrard to stay.

[Non-RedNeck Westsider]

Agreed, CF.  And I like a lot of what I've seen from Gabbert - it looks like he's throwing the ball 100mph on ropes down the field. 

Maybe they need to up the speed on the machine at practice so the receivers can get used to it.  I've heard that WRs had the same problem from Favre - the ball coming in too hot to catch, but they had to get used to it.

I like Garrard but he is on the downside of a mediocre career.  At some point this season we will see Gabbert but it might be better if he didn't have to start this year.  I am excited to have Gabbert he sure looks like a guy with real upside.

I see that being a problem too. But thats what we want. We want the speed of our team to pick up. I D-Line starters are picking up speed and Im loving that. Im Remember in the NE game thomas miss the throw Gabbert made. He did not get there in enough time because the ball came so fast. There will be an adjustment period of the receivers. Gabbert is a completely different QB than Garrard. I wish we had an off season this year......

[Non-RedNeck Westsider]

I'm still holding out hope that we won't have to start Gabbert this year.  I'd much rather be able to put him in a few 4Q reps when the game's already won (by the Jags and Garrard)   

Next year, unleash hell.

yeah I agree. I think we should play both of them, 90% Garrad and 10% Gabbert. im hoping Garrad can get us through the season.. Im not convinced at this point. As the saying goes, expect the worse but hope for the best..

[Rynjny]

Garrard=Garbage!. I think that Jags should just start Gabbert right away, its not like garrard could take this team anywhere.

The real problem is that we refuse to draft some good linemen, both on offence and defence. We can't protect the qb, and we can't even stop a 3rd down conversion! The qb must take part of the blame, cuz he can't work under preasure. But true fault lies within our offensive line with their lack of protection.

Any time our opponents have a third down, I simply write it off as a 1st and 10. We never stop them at 3rd anymore. And we can't sack either!

Saturday night's game at Buffalo was pitiful! I predict a 6 and 10 season for the Jags, though I hope I'm wrong.

Monroe, Britton (if he can ever stay on the field), Alualu, Knighton, Mincey, Lane, Rackley - do I need to keep going?

Did you see the Atlanta game?  We got consistent pressure and forced throw-aways on third down against Atlanta's first-team offense.  The difference between that game and the Buffalo game?  Alualu and Mincey weren't playing against Buffalo, and two backup DTs also got hurt early in the Buffalo game.

I agree man. Our D-line starts are on point. My concern is Garrad only at this point.
