Some very new and encouraging “bashes” – and some new tarp material from some of you! Congratulations.

Keep pouring it on us – that will only make it better when we treat you how we treated the Ravens last year.

At least with Mularky he is honest unlike the previous coach, knowing where you need to get better is nice to hear. JDR was bad about telling everyone what they wanted to hear.

Well at least they have a Top 10 defense if they all stay healthy

The Jags have actually exceeded the cap number for 2012. They rolled over the remaining cap space from 2011 into 2012. They rolled over $30 million.

Defense in training camp is usually ahead of the offense especially when they are implementing a new offense.

with a team this bad it was smart to draft a punter.

As irrelavent as this franchise is, I must say I can’t remember an offseason where there have been as many Jags headlines as there have been this year, I guess any pub is good pub for the Tarpsonville JagTarps.

I can’t stand these players that hold out. Definitely not a good teammate to have, very selfish. Play out the contract you signed before asking for more money, you greedy fool.

Sorry Jags fans, when your team went after Laurent Robinson, they forgot to go after Tony Romo and the other Cowboy receivers too.

There’s a reason he had his best season ever last year with Dallas, and it wasn’t just him.

Gabbert – You are who we thought your were.

Looks the part of a drop back NFL QB but a guy that totally lacks any pocket presence. He had the same issue at Mizzou on the occasions they would ask him to drop back and pass. Very jittery, feels the rush even when it isn’t there. Doesn’t translate well to an NFL QB – he plays like he is scared.

People see what they want to see.

Mularkey said Lewis needs to get acclimated to the heat in Florida after training in California.

Really? Come on now! Here’s a novel idea then..how about Lewis should have trained in FLORIDA if thats the excuse

A coach saying one of his players needs to get in better shape?! Ohhh Nooooz!! That’s never happened in the history of football. EVER!! Wait until day three of training camp to say Gabbert’s not doing well–because the first 2 days were fine. Nice, PFT…real nice…

Then the rest of you sheep eat it up. Best blog site ever…

they over drafted. Blaine might be worse than Tebow. This team will go 0-16 without MJD.

25 million under cap and lowest payroll in the NFL….what did expect the team to look like? Pay somebody!
*************************************************
This is what kills me. Somehow, the fans defend the team to no end.

This is a Kahn job all the way.

This says more about the front office than the players on the field. Seems like they aren’t making the right decisions for this team lately.

You know I’m really tired of this damm site always trying to bash my jags .. And you guys hearing from a real fan of the jags witch was there this morning to see them practice gabbert completed about 50 to 60 % of his pases yea Robinson had a few drops but he’s trying to adjust to a new QB and in reality most of the recivers struggle today the defense looked unbelievable out there and if you guys one to talk about some one struggling that would be QB Chad Henne he missed in any simple throws and he’s a check down machine so to all those national analyst that say he’s going to be the startder Gabbert has to be dead for Henne to get the job… I’ll leave all you haters with that

Gabbert is a terrible QB, and I don’t care if he was Indian, Korean, or Morroccan. He could be ET’s cousin, but the fact is he is not an NFL-caliber player.

He’s unlucky to have been drafted by this particular team, as would anyone. But he needs to show some big time strides this year to avoid getting flat out cut and being a journeyman at best, and a washout at worst.

I just took a look at the Jaguars’ schedule for the season, and I have to agree with the majority of posts about them. They’ll win maybe 2 games this season, giving them the #1 overall pick next year, and facing the decision of whether to spend another first-round pick on a QB in Matt Barkley.

Matt Barkley is okay with this, but only because it means he won’t have to move.

By: londonfletcher

MJD is holding out because he knows he’s the only decent player on that offense as of right now. He knows he’ll get paid. It’s sad how these guys can do that.

By: bradybbgoat

bradybbgoat — Mon, 30 Jul 2012 17:42:09 +0000

-No running game (without MJD)
-No offensive line
-Scrub receivers

How anyone expects Gabbert to look good is beyond me. This team could make any QB look bad.

I’m not defending Gabbert, just saying its tough to evaluate him under these circumstances.

Drafting a punter in the 3rd round tips their hand on the game plan.

Pretty smart move taking a punter in the 3rd.

Sounds like he’s gonna be used plenty……

In response to dryzzt23 comments about black QBs being sheilded due to the color of their skin:

It’s totally untrue when you have the WHOLE WORLD making excuse after excuse for a full back playing Quarterback in Tim Tebow!

If you can play you get props no matter your skine tone, if you cant play you get scolded like Gabbert is.

Not every first round qb choice is gonna pan out to be a success, he might be one of them.

Its a crap shoot when drafting a QB.

Gabbert was wack last season , well and from all indications that trend seems to be continuing . No wonder MJD is holding out, he has all the leverage.

Oh crap, you’re back. Was so nice for awhile there.

Whine, whine, Gabbert, whine, whine, whine. There I wrote it for you. Now leave again, please.
