Time to step it up!

by kickandsnare07 on Apr 30, 2009 11:30 PM EDT

As the leaves started falling last year I knew it was time to start spreading the word about my beloved Jaguars and the BIG things that were about to happen... I would tell my buddy Daryl (diehard Pats fan) that "This is my year!" He would politely tell me to shove it and remind me about the pretty rings on that dude's hand that sleeps with all the models... Needless to say, things went downhill fast.

Now that a new year is upon us I'm sitting thinking about what we need the most for this to be a successful campaign. With solid oline depth and our druggie wideouts gone, that left me with one thought. Getting to the QB. An important part of any contender is being able to rush the qb. That means Harvey and Groves stepping it up and giving us some production. Getting pressure on the QB will eliminate guys like Manning and Brady being able to sit in the pocket and pick us apart, If you disrupt the timing and get in their face, you have a chance. How you feeling about our top picks from last year?

You ever see the movie Eddie and the Cruisers?

I think the guy has a voice like Eddie in the movie. Very rough sounding voice. Who is that guy anyway?

if i dont recall

but didnt harvey wind up hitting the QB the second most in the legue last year??? i mean he didnt have hardly any sacks, but when it came to QB rushes and contact with the QB he played at a pro bowl level, i def. expect him to turn alot of those pressures into sacks this year
