The only thing about the Jaguars that will be 6-11 is Travon Walker's wingspan
I was going to go with "Number of sacks per game" but thats cool too.

Thats not a high bar to clear. Who has been standing out? Anyone that will make the actual roster?

JT Jag posted:

Calvin Ridley, Christian Kirk, Zay Jones and Jamal Agnew are all roster locks

Parker Washington is the backup return guy to Agnew, does other special teams stuff, has incredibly sure hands and was a draft pick and is also probably a lock

Leaves the Jaguars with 4 really good players for one spot.

Tim Jones is the most "obvious" choice, he's a good special teamer and blocker

Elijah Cooks and Jacob Harris are a pair of really athletic, fast 6'4 big body guys who have both flashed, Cooks tore up the Lions today. If they go with Jones, I wouldn't be shocked if neither of them cleared waivers

Kevin Austin Jr. and Kendrick Pryor are both 4.4 dudes who have done good things in camp but haven't really flashed in preseason games

Those are the most noteworthy ones
Awesome, thank you! I'm rootin' for Parker Washington so I'm glad to hear his hands are good.

I was with you. I'm not happy that he is on the Texans.

feeling good about 2024. and I can even enjoy watching a win (potentially, not counting my eggs just yet) without worrying about draft positioning because they don't have a first anyway!
Dont the Texans still have another Browns first and like... 5th or something coming up next year?

Kirios posted:

Texans losing out on the #1 pick has weirdly worked out beautifully. They would have taken Young #1 and so far Stroud looks like the clearly superior QB in the NFL.

Texans fans - we owe Lovie Smith an apology.

Yeah but I think they need to get another WR. Like if they think they won't be bad enough to draft MHJ, I wonder if they try and trade for McLaurin or Higgins.

I also haven't looked at the JT contract and am happy to get him back so long as it's not a killer. Moss looked good but I don't think he can carry the load the whole season and there were no other RB options behind him. JT and Moss will be a solid combo.
Not to nitpick but Tee is going to be a FA after this season. There is speculation that the Bengos may trade him if they continue to be rear end but I dont believe it.

Gonna cross post this from the NFCE thread if that's OK. Involves an epiphany I had watching the Jags v NO game on thursday

This past weekend I finally realized that I think I'm done with watching live NFL football. Thursday night really fertilized the seed because I'm trying to watch Jaguars v Saints and at least half of what I wound up watching were ads for beer, cars, medicine, fast food, etc. Or at least it felt like it. Last night's game was a similar experience.

There are just way WAY too many commercials to hold my interest for that long and many times, we get:

1. Offensive play, booth review, commercial
2. Play overturned, new play, end of quarter, commercial
3. 4th down now, successful FG, commercial
4. Kickoff, player down on the field, commercial
5. 3 plays, punt, TV timeout/commercial
6. 2 plays, two minute warning, commercial

It's horrible and no fun. Made me want to really scientifically measure how much time I was spending watching ads versus actually watching the game I enjoy so much. Almost always, what I do now is watch 20-30 minute recaps that show me everything I need to know or, if I really want to watch a live game, pause it and allow it to buffer then go back and watch a quarter where I FF the ads.

If I'm at a sports bar with my friends it's not as much of a big deal but I HATE advertising in almost every form and these broadcasts are polluted with it. People say baseball is slow (and it is) but most times I can at least watch an inning uninterrupted and the time between them is like 60-90 seconds or something.

Also, the continued failure to do anything about cleaning up the officiating detracts from the experience and often decides a game I've invested 3.5 hours into. I'm an Eagles fan but GTFO with the idea that we committed ZERO penalties last night. My job involves "refereeing" to a degree and not only am I rigorously trained to do it well, the emphasis is always on getting it right and I'm called out when I gently caress up or taken off certain "games". This past weekend in particular was a plethora of terrible officiating and it just goes on and on.
I watch on my computer. I watch Redzone on Sunday afternoons and mainly just watch that, but sometimes also play a slow paced videogame. For TNF, SNF, and MNF, whenever I watch, I watch at my computer and play videogames while doing it because gently caress commercials. If I can watch with people, great, but with a toddler and a newborn on the way I have accepted my fate.

Was Levis's only turnover that game-sealing Int? Because if it was, that is a minor miracle. Every time I bothered to look at the game, Levis was either dodging a defender in the pocket, running for his life, or getting hit.

This is going to sound lame but I'm glad I have a share of Stroud in a dynasty fantasy football league so I have a reason to root for a fun player that happens to be a division rival.
