Jacksonville Jaguars

Blankolthajó helyett én inkább az elkapó állományt biztosítanám be, mert a névsor nagyon szép, csak ennyi rookieval meg semmit nem bizonyított manusszal érdekes lesz kiállni.Maka

Blakenship max akkor kerül keretre, ha valaki megsérül a 4 RBből előtte. WR poszton meg sanszosan így is 6 ember lesz majd az 53ban, igaz szerintem a felük rookie lesz (Lee és Robinson mellett szerintem Hurns is rosterre fog kerülni).

Halloren elmélkedései a szezonról II - Gerhart szerepe

2. What kind of production should Toby Gerhart expect to get?

Hours after the free agent signing period opened March 11, Gerhart agreed to a three-year contract with the Jaguars, signaling a new era at the running back position.

Maurice Jones-Drew was out after eight years, 1,804 carries, 8,071 yards and 68 touchdowns – he would sign with Oakland.

In was Gerhart, who had 276 carries for 1,305 yards and five touchdowns in four years with Minnesota as Adrian Peterson’s back-up.

The Jaguars desperately need to boost their running game. Last year’s rankings:
*78.8 rushing yards per game – 31st in the NFL (ahead of only Atlanta).
*378 attempts – 28th (ahead of only Miami, Cleveland, Dallas and Atlanta).
*3.1 yards per carry – 31st (ahead of only Baltimore).
*Seven rushing touchdowns – 28th.

With Gerhart, the Jaguars feel they have a back that can stay on his feet after the first defender hits him and also stay fresh for the entire season. Throw in his ability to play third down and catch passes (77 career catches) and he figures to be a solid addition.

But how much work will he get?

The Jaguars have floated out 12-15 carries a game for Gerhart.

Earlier this off-season, offensive coordinator Jedd Fisch said: “The league has turned into one that there wasn’t a one player who averaged 20 carries per game last year – no running back had 320 carries last year. [Philadelphia’s] LeSean McCoy was closest with 314. So you’re not looking for that workhorse back per se that can handle 20-25 carries every game for 16 weeks. It doesn’t happen.”

Since five backs reached 320 carries in 2010, only three backs have done so: Jones-Drew (343 in 2011), Peterson (348 in 2012) and Alfred Morris (335 in 2012).

If the Jaguars are in more games, that will mean more rushing attempts, but look for Gerhart to be in that 12-15 range (with a couple outlier games) and have roles for Jordan Todman and Denard Robinson.

Szerintem sem lesz az a nagy workhorse, mit amire sokan számítanak, főleg ha Denarddal kapcsolatban igazak a hírek, hogy remek offseasonja van. Plusz ott van Todman és Storm is (és ha valaki kidőlne Blankenship - bár ő szerintem practice squados lesz. Remélem. )

Ryan O' Halloren elmélkedései a '14es Jaguars szezonról - feljavulhat-e idén a pass rushunk?

1. Should there be optimism the Jaguars’ pass rush will be improved this year?

Absolutely and for two reasons: It can’t sink any further down the NFL rankings and the players rushing the quarterback are better than in years past.

The Jaguars have finished last or tied for last in sacks three times in the last five years:

2013: Tied for last (31 sacks).
2012: Last (20).
2011: Tied for 25th (31).
2010: Tied for 30th (26).
2009: Last (14).
2008: Tied for 20th (29).

The Jaguars used the first week of free agency addressing the pass rush.

On March 12, they signed 26-year old linebacker Dekoda Watson, who had only three sacks in 60 games for Tampa Bay but intrigued the Jaguars’ coaches with his pass-rushing skills. He’ll be in a position as the new Otto (outside) linebacker to pass-rush and could also be used as a Leo defensive end on third down.

A day later, the Jaguars signed 32-year old defensive end Chris Clemons, who brings 130 games of experience (and 58 sacks) to the defense. He’ll replace Jason Babin, who was released last month.

Those two additions combined with the projected improvement by Andre Branch (five sacks in the last seven games) and potential of rookie Chris Smith is reason for optimism. Defensive tackle Sen’Derrick Marks is also a decent interior pass rusher.

But the Jaguars need to put themselves into pass-rushing situations.

The defense needs to stop the run better – they ranked 29th in yards allowed per game (131.8). Opponents had 29 “explosive” rushes (12 or more yards) and had 32 drives of at least 10 plays. The addition of defensive end Red Bryant should help that area.

And the offense, of course, needs to score more points in general and first-half points in particular. The Jaguars failed to score more than 10 first-half points in 10 games. Getting a lead equals pass-rushing opportunities.

So what’s the over-under on Jaguars sacks this year?

The Jaguars went 4-4 in last year’s second half and had 20 sacks in those eight games. Over a full season, that is 40 so that’s my number.

Remélem összejön az a 40 sack.

Úgy tűnik a giga eredményjelzők gyakolatilag készen vannak.


Plusz Gene Frenette szerint a Jags majdnem teljesen eladta idénre a legdrágább helyekre szoló szezonbérleteket!

Coming Saturday. Jaguars fired up by nearly selling out most expensive seats. Lot of work left on club seats. Sold 6,000 new season tickets

Úgy tűnik az érdeklődés megvan, most már "csak" egy minden meccsen ütőképes hazai csapat kéne....

Bradleynek nagyon jó a sajtója, és az utolsó 8 meccsen látottak, plusz az idei offseason sok semlegesnek is tetszett. Bár vannak kivételek, elég az idióta Walter szezonelőzetesét(dead zone van, plusz guilty pleasure a baromságain röhögni) elolvasni. Szerintem ő azt hiszi hogy Dave Caldwell = Gene Smith, és ezzel mindent elmondtam....

Henne 26. helyen végzett az ESPN felmérésén a kezdő QBk rangsorában. de így is 2. lett Luck mögött az AFC South QBjainak rangsorában, Lockert és Fitzpatricket megelőzve!

26. Chad Henne, Jacksonville Jaguars (4.15 average rating)
Lots of people loved Henne -- as a backup. "He'll have one good game and then have trouble repeating it," one GM said.

Szerintem ebből már versenyt csinálnak a franchise-ok. Nagyon jók ezek a hatalmas kijelzők, de ez az ultraszéles, teljes kapu mögötti lelátót átölelő kijelző már funkcionálisan nem ad pluszt. Esetleg még talán, mint extra reklámfelület? De ezt is kétlem, nem hinném, hogy behozza az árát.

Az FTU Sherrod Martin eddigi offszezonjáról és keretere jutási esélyeiről - szerintük Martin lehet az idei Will Blackmon:

In battle for roster spot, safety Sherrod Martin has experience on his side

Jaguars safeties Johnathan Cyprien, Josh Evans, Winston Guy and Chris Prosinski have a combined total of 37 starts in their careers.

Safety Sherrod Martin has started 36. That experience is Martin’s ticket to making the team.

Martin, 29, will be one of the most intriguing players to watch when training camp opens July 24. The Jaguars signed him on Dec. 30, the day after last season ended.

Jaguars general manager Dave Caldwell has liked Martin’s abilities for years. While Caldwell worked in Atlanta’s front office, the Falcons narrowed their choices to Martin and safety William Moore with the 55th overall pick in the 2009 draft. Atlanta chose Moore, who has become a Pro Bowl player.

Carolina took Martin four picks later, and the Falcons faced him twice a season.

Caldwell took no risk in signing Martin to a one-year, $780,000 contract with no guaranteed money.

Martin’s story is reminiscent of Jaguars cornerback Will Blackmon. Like Blackmon, Martin was out of the league for an entire season recovering from a serious knee injury.

Blackmon has triumphed with the Jaguars, enjoying a productive season last year and positioning himself as a safe bet to make the 53-man roster this fall.

Martin, 6 feet 1 and 200 pounds, could do the same.

Martin recorded 199 tackles with seven interceptions, four forced fumbles and 20 passes defended in his four years with the Panthers. Playing in the final year of his rookie contract, Martin tore ligaments in his right knee against Kansas City and was placed on injured reserve on Dec. 4, 2012. He was three months away from free agency. More than a year passed from the time of his injury until he had another chance in the NFL.

“It was a blessing to get the opportunity to perform,” Martin said. “It was way too long an offseason last year watching everything from the couch. I spent a lot of time in the gym with a therapist working out trying to prepare myself.”

Martin’s knee is at full strength, and he competed in the Jaguars’ offseason program until a groin injury kept him out of the final four practices. He’s expected to be fully healthy by the start of camp.

The Jaguars were able to find a gem in Blackmon and are hoping to harness the same hunger in Martin. He could give the Jaguars some valuable experience as a reserve. Last season, the Jaguars had three starting safeties — Dwight Lowery, Cyprien and Evans — miss at least one game with an injury.

“He’s very hard-working, internally driven and very grateful for this opportunity,” Jaguars coach Gus Bradley said. “He performs like he’s not going to miss this. Any time you have guys like that on the team, it’s good. His experience really adds to the locker room.”

Nem esélytelen a dolog, hisz Prosinski és Loston nem éppen az a leküzdhetetlenen konkurencia kategória.

Kijött Prisco idei "overrated/underrated" listája

Jacksonville Jaguars
Overrated: G Zane Beadles ­­-- He's a solid player, but was he worth all that money? He was the weak link on the Broncos' line last season. I get he's an upgrade in Jacksonville, but that's a lot of money to pay for that.

Underrated: DT Sen'Derrick Marks --­­ He played way too many plays (946) last season, and he wore down at times. But he was really good when he was fresh. They need to cut down on his snaps this season.

Ha már QBk, Gus a Rookie Symposiumon (ahová minden draftolt újoncunk elment és Gus előadást is fog tartani /vagy már meg is tartotta) Hennet dicsérte.

"I think it's been out there that our beliefs and our feelings is that we feel so strongly about Chad and he's going in, I think the team has really rallied around that," Bradley said from the NFL Rookie Symposium. "Now, it has provided an atmosphere for Blake to really go out there and ask a lot of questions and gain a lot of information from all the quarterbacks that are in.

"He's doing a really good job, he's having more good days than days that maybe he's struggling, like all rookies have," Bradley continued. "We're very excited about his development."

Mi mást mondana azok után, hogy ő csücsült 3 évet Favre mögött? 😊 Russell Wilson vagy Andrew Luck valószínűleg mást mondana.

Aaron Rodgers szerint a Jags jól teszi, hogy ülteti Bortlest.

Patience, the way Aaron Rodgers sees it, can be more than a virtue. It can be part of a process to actualize hopes and visions. So when he sees the Jaguars nurturing Blake Bortles, instead of expecting Bortles to nurture the rest of the team, he smiles.

"What they are doing has a lot of merit," the quarterback of the Packers said of the Jaguars' approach with the third pick of the draft. "Some of these guys who are going to bad teams are expected to play well right away. It's hard to do that. I've seen a couple guys able to do it. [Ben] Roethlisberger was able to do it. He had a team kind of around him. [Joe] Flacco had some success early but he had a team kind of in place. You go to a place that has some pieces and you can have some success early. But if you go to a team that doesn't have the pieces… it can really mess with your confidence."

Rodgers understands the benefits of waiting. Or being forced to wait. He came to the Packers in 2005 and was Brett Favre's backup for three years before becoming the starter.
