Another year, another dead zone, and more talk of the Jags to LA ( By sloppy journalists that apparently are either uneducated in teh facts, don't understand what "Fact checking" is all about, or have a grudge..) but I digress.

With the new TV rules and Memo to the league in regards to an LA moves.. I figured it was time for our annual update on the Jaguars, Attendance, and a basic overall comparison to the rest of the league.

First the undeniable facts:

* How the Market Size was generated that was at : http://www.bigcatcountry.com/2010/9/14/1689736/more-nfl-facts-and-figures

IF your interested in all the 2011 and 2010 stats: http://www.tinyurl.com/jaxatt2

In this case I have gone over a lot of that stuff already. In this years report we are going to look at the new rules and Market attendance..

Currently our stadium occupancy is at 92.5% and we are the 21st Largest stadium in the league, in the 30th largest market*.

If Kahn were to remove the covers we would become the 7th largest stadium, and be at only 81% capacity. The only team lower than that is Miami, and would put us in the company of the Miami, Washington, Tampa Bay, and St. Louis.

We would have to have an average attendance of 65,337 to hit the 85% if Kahn were to willing to push it and make Jacksonville fill the larger stadium. Which at an additional 3,000 tickets, isn't that hard of a reach and would remove the stigma the tarps have caused.

To wrap this up real quick, should point out the smallest market teams have proven you can fill a large stadium with a small market. Of course in the case of New Orleans and Green Bay, it was with winning consistently.

Other small markets (Carolina and Tennessee) have done it with PSA.. so even if no one was in the stands, they would be sold out.

Since its too late for the later, I guess we will fill the stadium the old fashioned way.. Start winning games in January and Feburary.
