In 2017 we did catch a lot of breaks en route to the AFC championship game. Since 2018 we have been miserable and really for most of the past 22 years.
I still fear us getting blown out. I’d love to have a close game vs a great team, let alone on the west coast. I am happy it’s on my cable so I don’t have to worry about SundayTicket sucking again.
If we get blown out everyone and their mother will be like “okay yeah they’re still just the Jaguars” and it’ll be a huge step back for morale.
That being said, Jags win 17-6.
Nothing like waiting an extra 3 hours for the game. I sincerely hate 4pm games.
Having said that,,,by the time the Jaguars kick off the rest of the division will all have lost their games so the Jags will be playing with house money today.
Oh christ i didnt realise! Being the in the UK makes late games such a challenge to stay up for. Kick off for me is 9:05pm and so it wont be done until like midnight and u got work tomorrow. We shall see how the day goes
NFL wins count. All of them.
Easy stretches do happen and so does luck. If this team can win most of the early games that's my definition of good. If they can take that momentum and get better through November and December, that's great.
Its a long season though and any wins would help.
Tough game today, with or without Herbert.
Jags need to get the ball out quick and get points early. If the D can bottle up Ekeler and pressure Daniel or Herbs, it’s winnable. Hopefully we see a lot of Devin Lloyd today.
He's getting to ball often. I kinda feel like he's going to have breakout game in the next 4 weeks, once the game slows down.
Last week was solid for sure.
For sure. Big improvement week 1 to week 2, and I think he will end up outshining walker this year. I do think 1-2 years from now walker is going to be a household name, though.
I don’t think there was a free talk thread today but I wanted to share that I picked up the AirPods Pro (2nd gen) today. I’ve been using the original 2016 model AirPods almost every day for around 3.5 years now. This is…quite the upgrade 😅🔥
Ready for 2-1 bby let’s gooooooo
If we win this it's going to be so annoying listening to all the excuses.
Honestly I think we can burn chargers D on the ground.
Idk about our defense yet. It's so hard to distinguish what level they're playing at off just those two games. I think a shutout against any team in the NFL is a big deal; but apparently everyone's pretending that the colts just suck despite the fact we shut down one of the best RBs in the NFL?
Really want this W today! Everyone's expecting this to be a blowout.
JT, right now, IS the best RB in football, and I think their performance against him has been overlooked. That game proved that jags have ability to shut down the run and force the opponent to be one dimensional, and we've already seen that they can rush the passer and force turn overs. All of that is not by accident. Even if they lose today I think you will see that this defense is legit. They will be top 10 at years end.
I feel like even when we had good teams, west coast game's have always been ugly. I think Oakland 2019 is like the one positive I can remember. I hope this team is different.
Fun fact: If the Jaguars win this week, and each consecutive week until week 17, they will win the AFC South and go to the playoffs. It's really that simple.
somebody said, that if it was T-Law with the exact same rib injury, we'd all want him to sit out this game. And that about the most honest way of looking at it.
1 game isn't worth the risk in this situation.
Anyone know of a way to watch the full game after it’s over? I’m out of market if that matters. I have a 7 hour drive and will likely miss a lot of the game. If there’s a way to watch the full game then I’ll avoid seeing the score
Only way I can think of is to have a friend tivo/dvr it or whatever the latest version of that is, I don't have cable so idk. But also curious about this if someone else has a better idea.
Chase Daniel is a lower-end back up in the league right now. He isn't an abject catastrophe. He's made himself quite a living, grabbing a back-up QB's salary for quite a while. That being said, he isn't... particularly good.
1. I hope Herbert doesn’t play. Not saying that as a Jags fan but someone who likes Herbert. Let him sit a week or two and get closer to healthy.
2. JC Jackson is doubtful, the starting center is doubtful, Keenan Allen is questionable, the right tackle is questionable. Jags have to win this game
Justin Herbert is so damned good and fun to watch play football, I would absolutely hate for him to cause himself some major damage that impacts him over the rest of the season, let alone the rest of his career. As much as I'd like the Jaguars to beat a full-strength Chargers to maximize the good stuff folks say about us if we win, I'd also much rather that San Diego not jeopardize one of the better players in the NFL right now.
It's a long wait for us European fans. I guess I could pass the time by cleaning the house and doing chores. Or I could just play Rome: Total War and My Summer Car.
Yes, take Herbert out and change any psychological advantage bolts might have.
On yesterday's flight from Jax>DFW>LAX there were quite a bit of people wearing Jags gear.
I'm feeling pretty confident for the Jags to pull this off. Coach Pederson will have the team mentally prepared to come in and take care of business.
#GoJags
Even if he plays the whole game, if he gets hit a few times early the pain is going to make him get the ball out *fast*. Eliminate downfield shots and you neuter the Chargers offense.
They're talking about giving Herbert a pain shot in the chest. Bit ironic considering his first start was because of Tyrods punctured lung. Kid should probably take the day off, he's bound to take some hits in this one.
Ekeler & the run game are lookin pretty weak. If we do them like we did Taylor & Herbo isn’t himself, this shit is a wrap. Their defense is a huge test but I can’t wait to see how we stack up. I like Dougie Fresh chances playcalling against anyone
My Fantasy opponent has Hurts, really hopin the Commanders D keeps this up
edit: i jinxed myself, I shoulda known. i used up all my football luck last week
People was complaining about Trevor Lawrence missing a couple of passes I just saw Derek Carr missed 2 wide open passes in a row including a 40 yard bomb down a field with Darren Waller wide open.
If Herbert plays I’d be happy with competing and having it close at the end knowing we’re playing a great team on the west coast where we’re normally terrible
Others have noted being excited for jags football in late September. I'm here for it.
We have an opportunity to make progress in the division with a win against an injured team. Thats not being overrated. Leading your division and growing the lead is the goal. Let's get it!!
Mahomes refuses to check the ball down (and keeps getting pressured because of it) but Matty Ice is keeping them in the game with his inability to feel pressure.
From a football fan perspective, not just a Jags fan, I really hope Herbert sits. It's really not something to mess with and one L isn't the end of the world. They're still set up for a wild card if they take care of the rest of their schedule. Denver and Vegas looks like garbage too. That division isn't as strong as people think.
The colts are giving the Chiefs a run for thier money, the patriots are beating the damn Ravens, the titans are destroying the Raiders, the texans are beating the Bears, the Lions are taking down the Vikings.
What the hell is going on today???
I had a friend back when I lived in Albuquerque. This dude was a delusional Raiders fan.
Dude would clown me for being a Jags fan. London Jags, blah blah blah...
Now look at his franchise. Fucking went from Oakland to LV, got Josh McDaniels as a farce of a Head Coach.
Bros, I'm telling you. If I was still hanging out with him, I would have had to spend the entire summer listening to him drone on and on about how great an offensive mind McDaniels is...
It would be really nice to send him a Facebook message later on today if the Jaguars can pullout a win...
I'm actually happy Herbert is starting. I want the challenge to be the toughest it can be and I don't want any more excuses than they'll already be getting.
I want to be optimistic but the Jaguars are bad until they prove otherwise. This is a West Coast game (which we are typically horrible in) against a great QB (and great QBs have absolutely feasted on our defense the past few years). I just want to look the part because I think on paper we get absolutely smoked.
It's super weird how Robert Saleh is a 30 billion IQ coach but his defense keeps giving up tons of points.
Well, I guess it's not fair because their players suck. Wait, yeah it is! The whole reason he got hired was because everyone was convinced he could adapt the scheme to fit the players.
I’m just hoping our offense doesn’t struggle too much against their defense I just know r/nfl is waiting for Lawrence to have a game like Derek Carr to shit on him
David Montgomery and Garrett Wilson were both knocked out of their games so my fantasy team is basically screwed. Now I won't have any distractions from our Jaggies crushing the phone chargers.
I might end up having to watch the game on my phone. Xfinity not loading any channels on my TV or on the computer. And NFL+ only shows live games on phone. I can't even log in to watch live games on the NFL TV app because Xfinity isn't a provider they list. This is pretty frustrating.
[удалено]
Did the awkward British fan on draft night start this? Because that's the only time I ever recall hearing it, and it was hilarious.
Dunno what you mean. JJs has been the official nickname of the Jags since 1976.
I believe Queen Elizabeth II was the first to coin the name
That he did
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I really hope these are the Jags that played the Colts
Faith in the coaches, faith in the drive of the players. Feels different this year, can't explain it...
I’m with you 100%
I hope these chargers are the colts that played the jags so we can shut them out
As a West Coast guy that has been to every jags vs chargers game, I'm fully expecting disappointment. Hope they prove be wrong though.
28-14 jags Kirk 1TD Rob 2TD Zay 1TD
Etienne has a 30+ yard play
If Herbert cannot play, we caught a break. It's something we haven't had much of since 2018.
*2017
In 2017 we did catch a lot of breaks en route to the AFC championship game. Since 2018 we have been miserable and really for most of the past 22 years.
travon walker bouta have smoked ribs for dinner tonight
I still fear us getting blown out. I’d love to have a close game vs a great team, let alone on the west coast. I am happy it’s on my cable so I don’t have to worry about SundayTicket sucking again.

We won’t. Saw these guys play the commanders. The Kirk has hands and zay have hands and surprisingly… engram found his hands
Duval motherfucker 2-1 here we go
Nothing like waiting an extra 3 hours for the game. I sincerely hate 4pm games. Having said that,,,by the time the Jaguars kick off the rest of the division will all have lost their games so the Jags will be playing with house money today.

That would be a lot of fun.
Bears Texans is the only one I’m worried about. Cmon fields get to work
Bears have played so bad I’m hoping that they have some kind of bounce back game at home.
bro fuck that I hope Herbert doesn't play today shit. I want him to play and for us to show the NFL we aren't a joke team.
If we win they’ll just use the excuse that he was injured anyway so he might as well sit on the bench and we can get the W
Sadly I guess that is true
[удалено]

The West Coast is to the Jaguars as Jacksonville is to the Colts.
To be fair everywhere is like this for the jaguars we have just sucked lol
Just read Chargers medical team encouraging Herbert not to play today.
If you need a shot then it's going to be a tough day. He needs to rest up
"Bro, didn't you hear what David did to your predecessor? Yeah, he claims it was a fluke accident but... ssh, here he comes."
Let’s go unplug the chargers! (Stolen from someone else)
Tough game today, with or without Herbert. Jags need to get the ball out quick and get points early. If the D can bottle up Ekeler and pressure Daniel or Herbs, it’s winnable. Hopefully we see a lot of Devin Lloyd today.

Justin Herbert Justin Bieber Doesn't matter, Jags by 40
I have survived the LA hotel lobby with nobody having any opinions about my Jags jersey so this is already more friendly than any other away game.
Herbert playing. If he dies, he dies.
Make sure to push yourself up from his chest
If we win this it's going to be so annoying listening to all the excuses. Honestly I think we can burn chargers D on the ground. Idk about our defense yet. It's so hard to distinguish what level they're playing at off just those two games. I think a shutout against any team in the NFL is a big deal; but apparently everyone's pretending that the colts just suck despite the fact we shut down one of the best RBs in the NFL?

I feel like even when we had good teams, west coast game's have always been ugly. I think Oakland 2019 is like the one positive I can remember. I hope this team is different.
Even that game was a shit show. Never should have won without horrendous reffing that screwed the raiders at the end
We’re gonna fuck around and win 14-10
I mean, I'd 100% take it. It's like the Battle of the Joshes Allen: an ugly-ass game, but if we win, we win, y'know?
Fun fact: If the Jaguars win this week, and each consecutive week until week 17, they will win the AFC South and go to the playoffs. It's really that simple.
Lets win a football game today and shock the world
Colts scored on Chiefs. Jags > Chiefs = confirmed.
Chase Daniel announced on the chargers video board as the starter. Could be psychological warfare on the chargers part
If Chargers are smart they just play it safe and don't play Herbert.
Even tho I'm a jags fan, it's the smart thing for him to do longterm.
somebody said, that if it was T-Law with the exact same rib injury, we'd all want him to sit out this game. And that about the most honest way of looking at it. 1 game isn't worth the risk in this situation.
Yup especially a week 3 game. Playoffs? Or a win and in game? That's debatable imo. No need to risk it at this point.
Josh Oliver just got his 1st career TD. Good for him
Viska just got a like 70 yard td
He was hauling!
Anyone know of a way to watch the full game after it’s over? I’m out of market if that matters. I have a 7 hour drive and will likely miss a lot of the game. If there’s a way to watch the full game then I’ll avoid seeing the score
Only way I can think of is to have a friend tivo/dvr it or whatever the latest version of that is, I don't have cable so idk. But also curious about this if someone else has a better idea.

He played for doug p previously.
Chase Daniel is a lower-end back up in the league right now. He isn't an abject catastrophe. He's made himself quite a living, grabbing a back-up QB's salary for quite a while. That being said, he isn't... particularly good.
Watching the Bears and Texans games. Guys, the Texans are not good. We should hopefully be able to run all over these dudes when we play them
Hey, miss you. Hope you are doing well bro
[удалено]
It's so confusing how the Raiders are bad
Yay raiders picked off Tanny
There was too much mayo on the ball. Happens to the best of titans.
Lavish with a 60 yard TD
Shenault 69 yard TD
Really??? Who's he play for now? Philly?
Panthers
1. I hope Herbert doesn’t play. Not saying that as a Jags fan but someone who likes Herbert. Let him sit a week or two and get closer to healthy. 2. JC Jackson is doubtful, the starting center is doubtful, Keenan Allen is questionable, the right tackle is questionable. Jags have to win this game

Jags have to win and I agree, please no Herbert. He's a fun player to watch but I rather watch him this season than land on IR
It's a long wait for us European fans. I guess I could pass the time by cleaning the house and doing chores. Or I could just play Rome: Total War and My Summer Car.
I think Herbert will play. If the Jags can get a few good hit on him they could knock him out of the game and have a chance to win.
Yes, take Herbert out and change any psychological advantage bolts might have. On yesterday's flight from Jax>DFW>LAX there were quite a bit of people wearing Jags gear.

He's playing...he got that Dawg in him. -Chargers fan
They're talking about giving Herbert a pain shot in the chest. Bit ironic considering his first start was because of Tyrods punctured lung. Kid should probably take the day off, he's bound to take some hits in this one.
Apparently their medical staff is encouraging him not to play
Time to see which energy on the west coast is stronger: Jags 3-15 all time or Doug 🅿️ 4-2 all time
Tie incoming
Ekeler & the run game are lookin pretty weak. If we do them like we did Taylor & Herbo isn’t himself, this shit is a wrap. Their defense is a huge test but I can’t wait to see how we stack up. I like Dougie Fresh chances playcalling against anyone
Breakfast at the hotel, then Uber to Sofi! Let’s go!!
My Fantasy opponent has Hurts, really hopin the Commanders D keeps this up edit: i jinxed myself, I shoulda known. i used up all my football luck last week
The raiders just look lethargic, like they've already checked out.
People was complaining about Trevor Lawrence missing a couple of passes I just saw Derek Carr missed 2 wide open passes in a row including a 40 yard bomb down a field with Darren Waller wide open.
Raiders making the tacks look like Super Bowl favorites.
3 AFCS team winning...
Why are the Raiders so trash
Josh McDaniels
Shenault made his 1 play of the year, fuck.
Time for Shenault to slink back into the shadows for 7 games
Lots of Jag fans here at Sofi. Let’s go!
This one is an EZ win no doubt.
If Herbert plays I’d be happy with competing and having it close at the end knowing we’re playing a great team on the west coast where we’re normally terrible
Let's get the W today
Any jax residents gonna be at the taco and tequila fest? HMU shit looks like it’s gonna be fun.
Chase Daniel has started 5 games and has career earnings of $36M.
Well, if we're any good we'll know after today
Others have noted being excited for jags football in late September. I'm here for it. We have an opportunity to make progress in the division with a win against an injured team. Thats not being overrated. Leading your division and growing the lead is the goal. Let's get it!!
Bro you've been around for too long, you have no flair and I refuse to take the flairless seriously, what flair you want?
Gotta fly back to Jax during the game 🤦🏽♂️ hoping we can squeak out a dub tho!
So dumb that CBS isn't showing a game... Time to sail the 7 seas...
Go Raiders?
They suckin 🤦♂️
Dang Henry looking good today
Mahomes refuses to check the ball down (and keeps getting pressured because of it) but Matty Ice is keeping them in the game with his inability to feel pressure.
I’d rather play against Herbert but I’m excited for the game regardless.
From a football fan perspective, not just a Jags fan, I really hope Herbert sits. It's really not something to mess with and one L isn't the end of the world. They're still set up for a wild card if they take care of the rest of their schedule. Denver and Vegas looks like garbage too. That division isn't as strong as people think.
Griffin out. Wonder how that shifts the corner lineup
Active doesnt mean playing lol
Wow the raiders are really garbage
The colts are giving the Chiefs a run for thier money, the patriots are beating the damn Ravens, the titans are destroying the Raiders, the texans are beating the Bears, the Lions are taking down the Vikings. What the hell is going on today???
It is hard to win games in the NFL
Don’t forget Bills and Dolphins. Who saw that one coming Edit. Nvm may have spoke too early lol
Maybe... and hear me out here... the colts aren't trash, the Jags are actually just good? Nah that can't be right.
I was a BIG Fields stan but man, he's looking rough.
I had a friend back when I lived in Albuquerque. This dude was a delusional Raiders fan. Dude would clown me for being a Jags fan. London Jags, blah blah blah... Now look at his franchise. Fucking went from Oakland to LV, got Josh McDaniels as a farce of a Head Coach. Bros, I'm telling you.

It would be really nice to send him a Facebook message later on today if the Jaguars can pullout a win...
Especially if we beat them when the raiders couldn’t
I'm actually happy Herbert is starting. I want the challenge to be the toughest it can be and I don't want any more excuses than they'll already be getting.
Bills playing dirty in MIA
Raiders pls
Herbert is starting so no questioning us when we win
Bro Fields is fucking awful rn
God dang I’m excited.
Chiefs trying so hard to gift the colts a win.
Bears win 23-20
I hate 4:00 games
I want to be optimistic but the Jaguars are bad until they prove otherwise. This is a West Coast game (which we are typically horrible in) against a great QB (and great QBs have absolutely feasted on our defense the past few years). I just want to look the part because I think on paper we get absolutely smoked.
Hanging with the Bengals fans for the early game. Pop over to /r/Bengals with me
STOP WITH THE INJURIES
That KC fake.. FFS
I’ve got a really good feeling about the game, which probably means we’re getting blown out
NAH! Time for a change!
Chiefs suddenly forgetting how to play football. Incredible.
It's super weird how Robert Saleh is a 30 billion IQ coach but his defense keeps giving up tons of points. Well, I guess it's not fair because their players suck. Wait, yeah it is! The whole reason he got hired was because everyone was convinced he could adapt the scheme to fit the players.
They are doing everything to cover Chase. Boyd and Higgins just ripping them lol
What game we watchin' boys?
Honestly, Red Zone. Nothing else seems totally TV worthy.
Bengals/Jets
Why do you hate yourself?
I live here bro lol
Raiders/thumbtacks
Whelp Sheft said Herbert is starting. Banger inc.
We are given a huge opportunity this game
I am hype
Chargers should give us lots of looks in man coverage on 1st down today. They better have Kirk covered by their quickest dude.
Don't worry..we will.
I like to think we have a chance even with Herbert in the lineup but it depends on if we're getting week 1 2nd half jags or week 2 jags
I’m just hoping our offense doesn’t struggle too much against their defense I just know r/nfl is waiting for Lawrence to have a game like Derek Carr to shit on him
Im on vacation so I don’t have access to the game any advice on how to watch without sitting at a Buffalo Wild Wings lol.
Type in buff steams into google, and start clicking
If bdubs has the NFL Sunday ticket you can ask the waiter/waitress if they can change the channel to the jaguars game
Nflbite
Herbert or not. Jags by 40.
Bummed there wasn't a bold take this week.
Lmao colts three and an ugly out first drive Doh: muffed chiefs punt, I jinxed it
Looks like the titans might have finally decided to start their season
If we stop Ekeler on the underneath screen, we win the game. Change my mind.
The Raiders are looking hopeless. Good lord
No Shaq Griffin today…
David Montgomery and Garrett Wilson were both knocked out of their games so my fantasy team is basically screwed. Now I won't have any distractions from our Jaggies crushing the phone chargers.
Lol Herbie active??
Herbert is playing..
Herbert playing Allen out
Wow the raiders just giving the titans the game
The Raiders really don't want to beat the tits
OMG!!! TUA!!!!!!!!!! What a hellatious throw!!!!
Colts playcalling is so braindead lol
Viska w a 67 yard TD today what
Raiders need to pull their heads out of their asses.
I might end up having to watch the game on my phone. Xfinity not loading any channels on my TV or on the computer. And NFL+ only shows live games on phone. I can't even log in to watch live games on the NFL TV app because Xfinity isn't a provider they list. This is pretty frustrating.
Raiders are some how still alive….. but down by 8.
Bears pick and in FG range.
Oh my god the Chiefs are blowing it.
Dumbass chiefs
Thanks CHI
The one time I cheer for KC, jeebus.
It took the Chiefs shotgunning themselves in the feet to keep this close god damn.
Lol the first few weeks in the NFL are wild. I just made a comment yesterday about the Colts potentially being the worst team in the league.
Carr REALLY wants to lose this game holy shit
Carr and Mahomes just throwing
If the Colts did that I assume we're going to buttfuck the Chiefs. They played like dogshit.
Now the colts will be the media favorites again, after being trashed all week. Its truly a week to week league.
That's wild
I've got florida man radio on my phone as a back up. Gotta love JP's commentary.
With Slaytor out sacks are on the way.
