Offensive Line

From The Ultimate Jags Newsroom:

OFFENSIVE LINE

Key gains: None. Key losses: Cut veteran guard Chris Naeole, arguably the club's best offensive lineman. Didn't offer reserve tackle Stockar McDougle a contract. Better or worse? Probably worse, based on reshuffling along the interior and the injury situation at tight end. The Jags moved guard Vince Manuwai from the right to left side and opened up competition for the starting right guard spot between Uche Nwaneri, Maurice Williams and Dennis Norman. Although the club played several games without Naeole last season, his absence will be felt. The team's decision to open up competition at left tackle between Khalif Barnes and Richard Collier will likely improve play at that position. At tight end, Marcedes Lewis has battled this offseason through a knee injury and it appears George Wrighster won't be ready for camp. Greg Estandia performed well last offseason, but this year, his outings have been average.

What's the thought..........are we worse ????  My thought is that we got our best out of Naeole.  I never thought he was the best OL.  I say it's a wash at best.  Is this now the weakest part of the team?

Fans Need To Buy Tickets

From the Time Union today:

"No doubt it's a tough economy, and people must make difficult choices with their entertainment dollars. But with the NFL angling to put an existing team in Los Angeles in the next five years, the last thing Jacksonville wants is to give an impression that this market has trouble filling the low-priced seats (51,000) when the Jaguars' football arrow is pointing up."

People in Jacksonville need to understand what the loss of the team would do to the city.  Having an NFL Franchise in the city sets it apart.  It puts Jacksonville on the map and attracts national attention to North Florida.

I have spoken to fans who would "rather watch the game in the comfort of my own home".  I say get off your a$$ and go to the game.  Buy tickets, tailgate, and get rowdy.  There is nothing like it.  And to all you Gator fans......real football is played on Sundays.

What's it going to take?  I think there should be a group that raises money to buy as many tickets as possible and then donates them to the USO and kids in Jacksonville.  Just an idea but something needs to happen.

Exiled Jags Fans

Just curious if there are many out there outside of Jax.  I am in Detroit but kept my season tickets and make it back foir most if not all of the games.  I definitely think I must be the only one in "The D".  Where are you from ?

This team is definitely starting to get a national following and it's about time.  We have asked for respect and now we have it.  It's time to deliver.
