Arizona@Jaguars - The view from the Stadium

Terry I feel you, I hope the next home game is better for us all.

The dude simply hasn’t looked like a legit LT yet

random thought here… do we let Monroe grow into the position or do we get Tra (if he’s alright) to hopefully shore up a weak line?

I was thinking the same thing about Del Rio. He has no clue what is going on. As for David, this team needs a QB fast. Garrard just waits, waits, waits, and waits before he even thinks about throwing the ball. Also if this is how the season is going to play out, then the jags better plan on losing another chunk of there fan base, because this crap is getting old real real fast. Also the defense looked pathetic today, and I swear to god if they do not take Reggie Nelson out soon I am going to lose my mind.

Wayne Weaver can knock them down. I just hope we don’t trade a plague for another. if it is finally decided to expunge jack, make sure we don’t mess up with the next coach.

The first half was terrible, I joked íat the Hungarian site that the fact that I watch my team beat in to the ground msuggest I’M a bit masochistic.
I hope next week will be better, but the week will be looong and with lot of negative things, ticketsales, and LA. I just write a comment about Calais Cambell and Harvey and how Shack Harris is responsible for this mess.

How the rookies played (Britton, Knighton, and Cox)?
What record do you expect after the first 2 games for the byeweek?

Great observation T.O. like yourself I to am a 4 year season ticket holder of the Jaguars. Prior I was with the Buccaneers my job moved me to Tallahassee and since I enjoy football and unable to drive to Tampa and back to Tallahassee in a day I decided to join the Jaguars.

I am extremely frustrated with losing and in what I’ve observed from the offense and defense at todays game. The team look unprepared for the Cardinals. Defense most every play look wide open uncovered Cardinals running in open field and catching passes in open field. Cards kept turning the ball over and over again to us we could not do anything with it. Obviously the Cards have a SuperStar team and the Jaguars well what can I say some players we have are SuperStars but it is becoming apparent that the Coaching staff isn’t.

 People on the bubble for me are Jack, Kotter, Shulla, and Garrard thus far. I like Jack and Garrard but without Mike Smith they are not producing. Mike Smith for the Jags was like Monte Kiffin for the Buccaneers. Garrard would stand a better chance if Shulla wasn’t his QB coach. I watched Shulla Offensive Coordinate when he was with the Bucs and he was a Joke, since then I have no care for him and it shows up in David, thus why he isn’t reading defense’s cause Shulla isn’t effective in that area. So David is going to get the raw end of the Deal, he’s the QB and has to make plays happen so he is in the top hot seat. If players caught there pass’s then David would not have been put in this position. So to be wise David deserves two more starts to get things going and if things are still in disarray, it’s not David but the Coaches fault. Saying that the next thing that will happen is Luke McCown will be put in knowing the offense for what 5 weeks and he’ll then become taking the blame for all the wrong doings of the offense.

THE FINGER POINTING RIGHT NOW IS THE COACHING STAFF! The first 4 games of every season are always full of mistakes. Around the 5th game the players are in shape, Coaches are coaching, Calling plays is better and usually consistency happens.

Jack Delrio has to be the salesman after everygame just like Garrard and other players. The press wants to ask questions and after a loss they have to deliver answers. That’s the hardest thing in the world to ever do.

I think the owner Mr. Weaver needs to step down onto the sidelines at a home game get all the coaches in a huddle in front of us fans and give a grand chewing, stating either get this team coordinated or else.

I like to watch film and review the errors thats how I get my best read of the play. Since the Jags games can’t sell out it’s more of a challenge to record a game. I was really in awe of the missing fans 3 seats to my left were Chuck and Will sat enjoying losing and winning with me was great, now those seats are abandoned and leaves the sense of erie.

Even though this looks like a repeat of last year so far. I’ll still be at the game in 2 weeks setting in my seat wearing my estranged outfit, acting like an idiot who thinks he knows what he’s talking about, enjoying the Jaguars game win or other.

GO JAGS WIN!!! or else

Terry, I saw a few people with cameras. However, I think the lense can only be so long

What I saw this GAME:
Defense didn’t account for all the receivers, te’s, and rb’s. If the WR’s were covered, then the RB was WIDE open in the flats. THEN, we had Daryl Smith covering Larry Fitz in the flats??? Seriously? D.Cox looked like he was worried about getting beat deep all game. He played 10-13 yds off the ball the whole time. Harvey-AWFUL.

Offense: Garrard doesn’t see the play happen. He looks lost at times. I only saw him make one or two reads; then run, that’s it. You have to make more. Monroe played like Robert Gallery his rookie year (awful; gallery is now a G.) Holt earned his check. The Jags scored TWO TD’s on a PREVENT defense (nothing to be happy about)

ST: Why do we only have Linemen on our FG team???? No one couldve caught Adrian Wilson because all there were was linemen running after him (other then scobee and podlesh)

Overall; my prediction we will definitely start 0-4; unfortuntately. Warner was 24-26 for 243 and 2 TD’s. In 2 and a half quarters. SAD.

The play of the Jaguars was astonishingly atrocious on almost every level. I’m starting to see your point about JDR, Terry. It was sad. A blocked field goal?! Really?! Come on, Monroe.

There were a few moments that felt great, but they were overshadowed by the many mistakes. If it’s going to be this rough, why not activate Dillard and Thomas and give them a look. Williamson and Hughes seem to have shown false promise in the preseason. Give the rooks a shot.

I still believe in our team. It’ll get better. It has to get better. Right?
Go Jags…yay

someone texted In Gene We Trust

That’s the word I’d use to describe how this sounds, how I feel, how I feel others feel….. bleak.

I said last week that my expectations for the season were not hight at all. I walked away from last week’s game pleasantly surprised. This week all I could do was shake my head. However, I normally would be beside myself, and angry about the loss. Alas, I was not angry. I actually like the fact that I was not angry. Disappointed if all phases yes, but not angry.

Thanks for the post Terry. I was actually wondering what you, and John (FSBlue) would have to say. I guess you can say that we’re on the same wave length.

I really only want to see one thing: improvement. Show some progress week to week, bring the kids along, and I’ll be happy. I haven’t seen any of that, especially today. It seems the team regressed in all three phases of the game. The rookies and younger players are getting worse, not better. Who’s responsible for that? The coaching staff, of course. It’s frustrating to watch, and I’m sure it’s even more frustrating for the front office. All you ask of your coaching staff is to teach the players how to play the game and to motivate them to play at the best of their ability. I’m not seeing that from the current staff. If this trend continues there has to be no choice but to clean house.

Im not here to rub this in but living in jax, this situation has been obvious since the day mike smith left. proclaimed jacks puppet. we all knew who the puppet was. jack del rio. if hes the coach for any other team he is AXed years ago. keep blaming shack but jack has a say in this I dont care what all of you say. now monroe is the next first round flop. their selection of players for this team is not NFL type. when wayne weaver gives a perennial back up 60 million dollars the next year because of an okay year, again which everybody knew hes stats were deciving that year, is ludicrous. and the assistants. like gene smith, del rio and weaver thought koetter was suddenly going to turn into josh daniels when he was with the pats? he has sucked from the very beginning.

and the fact that over the past few years the jags have crap players who wouldnt even make the lions team…see williamson. this is the second year in arow he catches a few passes in preseason and then is proclaimed…we have ourselves a FAST weapon. again! who really thought he was going to catch passes during a real game? without tripping or fumbling bumbling something? seriously??

the drafting of gators to get tickets. how many flop gators do you draft before you lose your team? I cant EVEN believe wayne weaver makes a national announcement of drafting tebow when any scout can see he is not close to PRO material. weaver makes the announcement, the gator jag fans go wild and tebow promptly lays an egg the next game. bull rushing for 75 yards while yelling at his teammates when he makes big mistakes…thats a great leader? sorry but cheerleading is not an NFL quality.

in a nutshell, this whole scenerio has been building up for years yet when one of your posters simply cant take del rios, no leadership, crap coaching and the sole reason this team is so aweful hes a bad fan

everybody NOW knows the puppet should have been the coach. mike smith and del rio should be back in LA being a d coordinator for some college team years ago. youve heard other fans say…please dont fire del rio or they might actually get some good players and a real coach for years. well now you know what they are talking about.

I don’t think the Jags can get out of their lease with the Stadium. I think the deal isnt up until 5 years?

was David running for his life most of the day?

Vote for Tra…

:)

But I think its time for him to go………..if he keeps playing like this. I think he sees good throws when he runs through the receivers……. he just lacks the confidence to throw it there. He is still stuck on his 3 interception season. If we really want to have a passing game, Garrard needs to take some chances. It seems when he gets better in one area, he forgets what he worked on last week. I think he also may be too soft spoken to be a leader. He doesnt seem like he demands attention from the team and is often quiet and dull. I also think our defense played well aside from the pass rush. We created 4-5 fumbles and were solid against the run. Yeah we got burned at times, but I really do believe if there was more pressure we would have been awesome. When are we really going to get a certified QB killer? I thought Harvey was going to have a good year, but he is proving me wrong. He is reminding me of Matt Jones attitude wise. Does he ever talk to the media? I dont think Ive ever heard his voice……lol. I remain optimistic about our team but I agree there are things that need work. Monroe needs to eat some spinach or something……

… and the most disheartening moment to me was the timeout we had to call late in the first half when we had a decent drive going with the clock winding down. Garrard and the offensive stood there for 20 seconds looking at the sideline, waiting for a play to be called, and JDR finally had to call the TO. That, my friends, is an organization issue, a discipline and focus issue … in short, a coaching issue.

I don’t think Garrard is a top-5 guy in this league but I do think he’s a capable starter, and would love to see what he could do with protection, with receivers who can catch and not fall down, and with imaginative play calling. His weakness is supposed to be vision and throwing deep, yet the two passes at the end that Hughes dropped were in the tightest possible windows in the back of the end zone.

They say the definition of insanity is doing things the same way and expecting different results. I’m afraid I now count myself among the growing masses that feel Jack has to go. My choice (we’ll never get him) would be Cowher; what we could really use around here is some passion and spit-in-your face intensity.

the Jags is the only thing holding this town together… and the only thing that brings this town together… I am scared as to what will happen if they lose… (just throwing that out there)

I saw a defense allow a 92.3% NFL record completion percentage. I saw David Garrard play like our best player and hit receivers in the hands/face/chest with the ball and they still couldn’t catch it. I saw David avoid certain doom when our offensive line does the ghost routine.

Both lines on our team are extremely weak, and we’re just not coached properly to take advantage of the “gimme” plays for 8 or 9 yards that other teams kill us with. Blaming this game on David is way off base. The game crumbled around him, on both lines. I appreciate negativity, in fact, I often revel in it, but it needs to be aimed properly. David is not the appropriate target on this occaision, however.
