It is remarkable to see how a team that was a quarter of a distance from the Super Bowl and who still looked like the world after two weeks of this season has completely collapsed. Remarkable not for the Why of it – the wounds took away their catcher up wide, the half back full, the two ends tight and the two tacked top left – disregarding all of the collapse. Jaguars are wrong, man.
Jacksonville is now 3-4 after starting the season 2-0 and lost three times in a row. They were not close. The Jaguars were outclassed 57-0 in the first half in all three games, growing insurmountable deficits. So, when Doug Marrone withdrew Blake Bortles from the game after his second breakaway, he admitted that his goal was to "try to get a spark from this football team to warn everyone".
"We can not do shit until we keep turning the ball over," said Marrone. "Period, that's how it is.
Marrone admitted that the only reason he did not put all his attackers on the offensive bench was because he did not have enough body to replace them. That's how it happens.
Marrone has declared the quarterback competition officially open, although only Cody Kessler and Tanner Lee are on the list. The Jags apparently do not want to trade for a quarter, it seems that Bortles will be under the center next week and for the rest of the season and thanks to his contract, the next season also. The Jaguars will live or die with Bortles and they die.
Marrone noted, justifiably and painfully, that it was not like Bortles was playing worse than the rest of his offense. The defense is too conscious.
In recent years, the Jacksonville offense has been his responsibility and when it lasts long enough, when a defense is invoked. this good and a crime is this bad – it becomes a responsibility off the field. Defensive players start to feel their offensive opponents. We saw it in Seattle and we see it in Jacksonville.
"I can not leave [opponents] score at all, "said DT Abry Jones, and he looks like someone who is really fed up with the state of things.
"You all walk here, you all see how it goes here, you all see how we vibrate with each other, you all see how we live for coaches, you all see how it goes. It's not a secret, that's what's happening here right now, "said Jalen Ramsey after the game," Nobody's going to say it because we can not, but it's not a secret, it's not a secret and it's not now, it's what it is. "
What's it, it's a mess. The journalists could see a split second of what it was when the locker doors were opened as a result of the "reflection period" of 10 minutes after the end of the game. Things had not calmed down: as soon as the doors opened, reporters saw DE Calais Campbell physically remove Yannick Ngakoue from an altercation around the corner. Ngakoue screamed, swore, and tried to hunt Campbell. The doors closed in a hurry, the Jags apparently requiring a period of reflection after the period of reflection.
It's quite possible that all this is just a glance, that the Jaguars' offensive is simply mediocre again, and that will be enough for a new playoff race. They are just a game in the putrid AFC South. They should recover some of their injured players before it's too late. But the underlying problem remains: Bortles is still Bortles and one wonders how much Jaguars can survive.
