When does it stop being "Just the preseason"?

The only way I see Jack Del Rio getting a pass is if he starts Blaine Gabbert. I don’t see that happening, given Gabbert failed to shine in two golden opportunities.

The grass is always greener, right?

…has a nice piece of hardware on his finger for all his efforts. Players hate playing for him with his disciplinarian demeanor. I’d take him back in a heartbeat after watching this last preseason game.

It’s all about typos.

The Jaguars were beating them by 17 points until the Bills score with a minute left.

I think winning by 10 is “handily”.

After watching 3 preseason games, you still feel like they have a legit shot at the division…?

The Texans have looked pretty flawless in 3 games and the Titans have surprisingly look okay in there games as well and thats with Johnson’s holdout. The Jaguars have looked pretty abysmal at times with flashes of good play. Though this doesnt mean that we are doomed by any means, but it does raise a lot of red flags which is not a good thing.

at this point we are .500 again like the last few seasons. we look just as bad in the pre season as we did the last few. DG hasnt improved, MJD hasnt played. The new additions havent been here long enough, We havent added any real depth. Its the same team as last year almost, just it appears that we have regressed. its the same jags company line. pretty sad when you have to get excited about winning the division because all the other teams might suck more than they did last year. honestly we appear to be in that same boat.

i dont even see him geting into the game again. you cant give DG and the 1st stringers a pass next week..imo they arent even close to having any kind of consistency. not to mention it looks like BG needs all the extra snaps he can get.

Garrard gets cut, Luke get’s the nod to start until Blaine is ready. Bouman is their for insurance.

And I don’t really see any vets out there for trade.

Quite honestly, unless the team is willing to throw McCown in to start and cut bait with Garrard, Weaver’s eating $9 million for a qb who is going to get Brunelled this year. Unless JDR showcased Garrard for trade opportunities, this is what is going to happen.

great post.

Not necessarily on the scoreboard, but it matters. The run by Garrard was nice, but it’s like Jorge Posada sliding into first base in Spring Training. The risk outweighs the reward. We know David is tough. Never been questioned. You wouldn’t see many other starting qbs do that in a preseason game.

So bad. I mean it was painful, until the Bills pulled their 1st string defense. Garrard just keeps chucking it deep, hoping, praying and wishing that someone pulls it in. I think he was watching that NFL redzone commerical too much this offseason. “Garrard steps up fires….Mike Sims Walker…..knocked down…OH HE CAUGHT IT”

He’s torched 3rd stringers. And in San Diego last year, before his ACL tear, he was efforting the ball downfield against a defense that called off the dogs, similar to what David did Saturday against your 2nd string.

As stupid as that sounds, I’m serious. His brother has more interceptions than touchdowns in his career and a 57.9% completion rate. He’s the one with 31 career starts.

Luke hasn’t played lights out during his career, but he’s only started seven career games. I think people mix up him and his brother and feel like Luke has had a career of sucking.

Cade McNown probably didn’t help much either.

I’m with you on the live or die with every game, it gets old when people say “We better win the Rams preseason finale or I’m not buying tickets” or “If we go 4-12 we’re going to LA” ENOUGH OF THE CHICKEN LITTLE CRAP!!!

But, people want to see something different. We’ve got playmakers from what we’re being told. We’ll flip the switch when Kampman gets back, which worries the hell out of me because 2 years straight, he’s ended on IR. He’s great and a leader and all that, but the man’s shoulders are only so big. Same with MJD and Garrard. Last time we saw them during the regular season, David threw a pick vs the Skins and went on IR and MJD was on the sidelines with the torn hibiscus. (yes I know). Both men have taken a hell of a beating over the past 4 years.

I don’t think they’ll have trouble running the ball with MJD and Jennings out there.

VERY much agreed that this roster is top-heavy. Lack of depth could be this team’s downfall.
