Jags fall to Colts in Thriller: Bye - Bye - Bye... PLAYOFFS!

This is probably the best game you guys have played all year… Your team played their hearts out and you all should be very proud….

maybe the Colts took the game so serious because they don’t want to see the Jags in the playoffs.

When the O played well-The D was bad; when D come to live; the O died (almost). Can we do both?

That ST TD was baaaaad.
So as Nelson-Sorry Reggie; the coach wanna see you and your playbook-Patience is over.

Congratulation to MJD; Mike Thomas (1st TD in the NFL); and Russell Allen (bye bye Clint ?!)

David is a good QB who will be never be an elite QB. But I don’T blame him. He played well

But this heartbreaking loss ruined my day at it has 18 hours (plus a rewatch the game with the Hungarian commentators)

And one more question: WHY THE O couldn’t play like that on LAST SUNDAY????

knowing that the Colts were just one pick away from getting both him and Addai (Polian said at some point after the draft that they would have taken MJD in the 1st if Addai had been gone, and they would have taken him if he had fallen the one extra pick to them in the 2nd round). Instead we got Tim Jennings (#23, target on numerous 1st down passes tonight), who sucks and we hate him.

The stadium rocked, the energy was good, the Jaguars outplayed the Colts for three quarters.

A victory would have been so sweet…..

Didnt mean that as an insult, its just frustrating how the Colts consistently cant tackle him and yet dont have many problems against other premiere backs. If only Polian found a way to trade up and get him like he said he wanted. Then it would make our running game awesome and eliminate the problems he gives our defense.

The sold out stadium gave the Jaguars enough to pass the Lions in average home attendance by one fan per game.

i had a great time at the game. it was exciting, the crowd was amazing, and the weather was perfect. we definitely need to address the interior of the offensive line. also, as much as i hate to say it, reggie nelson needs a new brain or we need a new free safety. i’d like to see alexander and considine as the two deep safeties and toss nelson out.

overall though, great game, great effort.

As I’ve said before, I hate to lose. I have that gut wrenching feeling again. We played well until we had two chances to get up on Peyton Manning and put the game out of reach. We went three and out both times, for the first time all game, that was when we chose to not execute and have to punt. We just pissed down our leg when we had that three point lead, and like I said while I watched it, sitting there in the stadium, it came back to bite us in the ass.

Reggie Nelson needs to be replaced this year. I’m getting sick of him being out of position, and then giving sorry ass effort on tackles. He was the final hitter on two plays that turned into touchdowns.

I still love Garrard as a guy, I think the guy has great swag; but tonight I think I came to the realization that, he isn’t the true answer at quarterback. He played great football, just like last year in the Thursday night game, but he blew it when it mattered most, and overshot a wide open receiver. I’m pissed at you right now Garrard, but you’re still my favorite current Jag.

The pass rush, as usual, was sorry.

I’m gonna go try to find a cure to this feeling I get, whenever I lose in anything. So far I haven’t found a cure…

Win or lose…the jags are still my team. It’s been a roller coaster season but a hell of a season, and i’m proud of these guys. Can’t wait to see them play in Cleveland, so i can cheer them on in person for the first time this year.

Why can’t the O and the D work well at the same time?

It was a hell of a game… edge of my seat the whole damn time. Exciting for sure. David screwed up at crunch time this week. It’s strange, other weeks he’s crunch-time and sucks the other 3 quarters. This week, he’s hot for 3, and starts losing it late….

Anyway, we can still get in the playoffs, we just need help…. so there’s that.

Maybe it’s my optimistic nature but we are far from out of the playoffs. Yes the road is much harder and our rope is much shorter but we aren’t the only team that can have a collapse. We played an excellent game in which I’m proud of our guys. They played with as much heart as you can and displayed some talent in the process. Were not an elite team yet but we are well on our way. It’s not over yet. Obviously it’s not a win and in scenario but I encourage you not to lose hope. What else can you turn to besides looking onto next year? Exactly, nothing. Enjoy the feeling of a meaningful December while it’s here and maybe, just maybe the dice will roll our way and we’ll sneak in. Otherwise be proud of what you guys have in Jacksonville.I’ve been a huge fan ever since I started watching football when I was 7 and the jags just joined the league. I only wish I could go to a game. I’ve lived in a Chicago suburb my whole life and now go to eastern Illinois university. I almost got tickets to the jags colts game in week 1 but I had my first day of school the next day.

Thanks guys. You rock ; )
Number 27 is a hell of a DB.

Can’t blame Gerard as he just about matched the greatest Qb of all time pass for pass. He had 1 bad pass to an open Holt. The INT could be blamed on a mis-timed jump by the receiver. He had the Colts pooping bricks. You totally exposed the Colts weeknesses but those lucky bastards keep marching on. 7 times they have come back in the 4th. they are playing with fire and might be 1 and done in the playoffs.

Jack Del is the man. Your luky to have him. Your O-coord. called a near perfect game. Like everyone else, Clark dominates all LB’s. I’d replace an LB with another safety.

Your not out of it yet. We have the Steelers in Pitt.. The Jets play SD and Miami plays Pitt to name a few potential loses.

led to a touchdown drive, and in the end the colts won due to having those points. No bad ref call + manning being cheap and hurrying up the play (he was even too fast for the media crew!) = Jags win this game.

Sorry to you guys :/

the play of Reggie “cant tackle” Nelson. He has to be replaced. His shoulder tapping, maybe I can slap the ball, give 5 yards of cushion, I will never be great, playing style is not meant for the Jaguars. Trade him, cut him, whatever……….just make him go away.

Reggie, Reggie, Reggie… You make our defense look embarassing. I try to stand by you man, but another televised event shows your short comings. Was it me or did it seem like some (not many) of those passes to the secondary could have been defended with a hand out?

Other than that – an awsome game. And another thing – I was on the fence about this, but I truley believe that with a little tougher O line, maybe a RB to spell MJD, and a supporting defense, Garrard could take this team deep into the playoffs. I know he gets inconsistant, but last nights game, before the air ride passes (which I think is a confidence problem), he looked better than most NFL QB’s, Rotherlisberger – esque.

Can it happen? What do you think is the window on MJD and David? 2-3 years or more like 3-4 years?

Was a great game either way… I think if we didn’t spot them the 7 points on that kickoff return, we may have ended up winning. I think after that great drive for the score, for that to happen, it kind of deflated the team a bit.

It was a great game last night/ Wehad our chance to win it but came up short. My fan post 2010 Jaguars needs stated exactly what we are missing rhis year and will get next.

Reggie Nelson is a back up safety at best unless he learns to wrap up and tackle

Garrard is a average QB who could win the super bowl if all the pieces around him are perfect.

This has been a outstanding season for the Jaguars for it showed them what ls ahead of them

8-8 is fitting, somehow.

You guys played a good game last night. I’m hopping on the “Keep Reggie Nelson around because he can’t tackle for shit” bandwagon, but that’s mostly because I want to see him continuing to not tackle Dallas Clark for the next few years.

If you guys could figure out a way to bottle whatever extra juice it is you bring against us every season and use it before every game, you’d win ten games easily.

So, because you guys played a good, tough game, you’ve been upgraded from the Jacksonville Dumpster Fires to the Jacksonville Sparkle Kitties. Get a playoff spot, and we may upgrade you to Jaguars. Get blown out by the Patriots, and you’re back to Dumpster Fires. Have a good season! :)

1. Despite losing Garrard continues to look better. He did this in the Houston game and I saw it again last night. He extended plays AND made some really nice throws under pressure while being hit. He is really making a case for himself.

2. MJD, as always, is a little ball of death and iron. Man that guy is good.

3. The Colts can’t lose apparently. Honestly, every game SOMETHING wierd (as in Notre Dame wierd) happens and the Colts find a way to win. Maybe it’s just their year.

4. You are NOT out of the playoff hunt, yu are just IN the hunt as opposed to IN the playoffs.

5. Overall the Jags have impressed this season considering what the expectations were for this team at the beginning of the year. You have to be happy with that.

Disregarding the kick return and Nelson not playing like a Cover 2 safety….good teams get it done in crunch time.

We had 4 chances to beat the Colts. During the second half I saw the Colts daring us to run putting 8 even 9 in the box. If your QB can’t make the D pay then somewhere down the line you need to find someone else. I am not blaming Garrard but on several plays he overthrew WRs (Sims-Walker) wildly (Thomas) and almost had the ball intercepted on a number of occasions. It wasn’t like he didn’t have any time or that he had guys all in his face. So you know what I take it back —I do BLAME Garrard.

When you get 4 opportunities to beat a team and close the game you need to have someone do it and Garrard can’t. He showed the exact same thing last week. Numerous times we got the ball back with plenty of time and nothing.

Vic is wrong saying Touchdown Bomb beats Jaguars. No the Jaguars beat the Jaguars as usual.

Guys, 9-7 (as long as the other 9-7 team is not the Dolphins) can still get us in based on conference record as long as no one in the wild card hunt is 10 – 6. If we play like we did last night against the Patriots and Browns, I think 9 – 7 is very possible. Good job last night, and go bury the Patriots!!!!!!

The guy comes out to play every game, and he gives our secondary much needed, yet talented depth. Great job T-brack, keep up the good work!

some of these jaguars fans r willing for MJD to be traded?!?! why?
