"Matt Barkley currently has more career receiving touchdowns than Kevin White." Oh that's brutal.
This year, as a reward for some good school work, I told him I’d take him to a regular season game. My friend with season tickets told me the Panthers and 49ers games were available and I told my son to choose. He chose the 49ers cause there is at least a better chance he could see them score once this time. Can’t argue with his logic.
Yep.
Just getting them out of his system now.

So if I draft all Jaguars, I'll dominate the fantasy league?

If you can find a league where only fourth quarter stats matter, that strategy is patently golden.

It's only clutch if they win games, which they don't.

The rest is just as glorious.
It's weird that whole article was nothing more than just a picture of Blake Bortles.
Wait, there were words? They were necessary?

Flat out untrue. The Jaguars have never had a 0 or 1 win season. They have always won games.

As the Deadspin article points out, that's actually one of the problems with the Jaguars; they're always bad, but they're never awful enough to get the #1 pick in a draft with a solid QB. So you wind up with the Garbage Man at QB, at least until he apparently hits the bar. He's like Florida Man version of Manziel, apparently?
And the Ravens' offensive injury plague continues.

That was quite the good article. I loved this walk down memory lane:
To illustrate, let’s remember some Jags first round picks since Coughlin was fired:Byron Leftwich
Reggie Williams
Matt Jones
Reggie Nelson (who became a Pro Bowler only after we traded him to Cincinnati)
Derrick Harvey
Blaine Gabbert
Justin Blackmon
Luke Joeckel
Blake Bortles
I mean, look at that shit! Not to mention that yes, we drafted a punter before 5 picks before Russell Wilson.
Being a Muslim-American is a lot like being a Jaguars fan. For an immigrant group/expansion franchise we’ve been decently successful in America/the NFL, but every time you want to cozy up to the establishment you get abruptly cast as a disease on this country and/or sent to London.

Well, if football's becoming an issue, might as well.

Hall of what game? Is that football?
It was the first preseason game of the year and it was a Thursday night game. That's like double the reason to go watch something else instead.
I watched a WNBA game instead. No regrets.

It was only the preseason opener and a game void of any real star power, but Gabbert finally looked like the quarterback he was expected to be when he left Missouri following his junior year.
His high completion rate is especially noteworthy because he has completed just 56 percent of his passes over his career.
So Cutler is a better sign than Kap? Hmmm....
I don't Colphin Dolphin? He couldn't go to a team with a better rhyming scheme for a nickname? "It's a Slacer Packer", "I Don't Give A Damn Ram", or "From My Demeanor You Might Guess I'd Taken A Handful Of Pills Bill" work, but I can't find a good apathy-related nickname based on the Dolphins.
I guess I could go with "Do I Have To Go In Again 'Phin", if I'm desperate.
So Cutler is a better sign than Kap? Hmmm....
Yeah . . . not so much.

Well... all things equal, maybe not.
But it's August, and Cutler played for Adam Gase and knows the offense already. So he's clearly the better pick for the team to sign at this point.
Now if only the Niners had hired Gase instead of Tomsula, then Kaep would have been experienced in Gase's offense.
