Alternate NFL Universe

In the alternate NFL Universe, the Jacksonville Jaguars are 7-2, and in sole possession of first in the AFC South.The Jaguars lone losses are to the Carolina Panthers (to whom they lost in overtime), and the New England Patriots (to whom they lost on a game winning touchdown pass from Jimmy Garoppolo). The Jaguars are currently in playoff contention, thanks in large part to a stellar defense, kicker Jason Myers, and second year players Blake Bortles, Allen Hurns, and albino tiger Marqise Lee.

After falling to 1-2 after the first 3 games, the Jaguars haven't looked back, reeling off six consecutive victories. Blake Bortles is being regarded as an MVP candidate, and rightly so, as he has thrown for just about 3,000 yards and 20 touchdowns withonly 10 interceptions. Along with Bortles, wide receivers Allen Hurns and Marqise Lee are being dubbed the A.M. Touchdown club for their efforts on the field.

The offense is not the only explosive part of our team: our defense is leading the league in turnovers, sacks,as well as points off turnovers. All thanks to rookie Dante Fowler, who did not suffer an injury during rookie minicamp.

Before the season, the Jaguars were faced with a tough dilemma: two talented kickers rookie Jason Myers and veteran Josh Scobee. Ultimately, they made the correct call keeping the unproven kicker, as they sent Scobee to Pittsburgh in a trade. Scobee has since been cut, and is now on the PGA tour. Myers on the other hand has made all of his kicks, including four game winners in a row.

Where is Allen Robinson in this universe? He's still on the team, but suffers from nagging hamstring injuries every week.
