Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

Back as the Underdog

       As bad as it's been this season (and it has been quite bad) the one positive aspect of it is that we as Jaguars are back in familiar territory: the underdog spot. As much as this team and its fans have complained about that "lack of respect" we know we all secretly love it. Put us in the spotlight, start guaranteeing victories and superbowls and look what happens; The 2000 season and this season so far, that's what happens. So here we are, back in familiar territory as underdogs this weekend up against the hottest team in the NFL and I couldn't be more excited. Defying the odds makes the win all the more satisfying. It just makes me think of Buffalo and Denver in 96'. I know that was completely different and the odds against us were much greater, but it gives me the same feeling.  I'm not saying I'm expecting a win but I am expecting a dogfight. So go ahead Tennesee, tell us we can't win and see what happens.
