Thursday Night Football is a rematch of the 2020 BCS Championship — but the real story is Urban Meyer’s incompetence
Some people consider Trevor Lawrence’s Clemson career one of the greatest college careers of all-time. The man never lost a regular-season game, won a National Championship, and was promptly drafted first overall as soon as he became eligible....
You done messed up, Urban
The Jaguars are not going to compete for a Super Bowl this year. They are not going to compete for a division title. They are not going to compete for a playoff spot. With that in mind, all that should matter in Urban Meyer’s first season as head coach, is developing his rookie quarterback, Trevor L...
Green Bay continues trying to please Aaron Rodgers by targeting favorite Randall Cobb
Good news Texans fans! You may not have a strong defense, good head coach, tons of early draft capital, or a quarterback devoid of controversy, but what you do have is one of Aaron Rodgers’ favorite targets from his past and a team willing to do anything to keep Rodgers happy. ...
Athletes who turned their careers into an April Fools joke on all of us
Happy April Fools Day to all. I hope everyone reading this hasn’t already gotten duped by one of their friends or loved ones. If you have, it’s okay at least you didn’t get fooled like these organizations did when they picked the “star” of their franchise. There’s been so many examples of these play...

The Bortles Has Landed
In Los Angeles! After five extremely eventful seasons in Jacksonville, Blake Bortles will be a Ram. He’s reportedly finalizing a one-year deal to be L.A.’s backup. That means that one year after opening the season as defending AFC runners-up, Bortles will start this year with the defending NFC champ...
Enjoy Your Mike McCarthy Bloopers While You Can
Mike McCarthy. Here is a man. A man who has not simply persevered, not merely endured, but who has continued to push himself further, faster, harder in his pursuit of a very distinctive type of mediocrity, even as the naysaying multitudes cried out, in a superficially polite Wisconsin-accented way, ...
Blake Bortles's Butt Bumped To Bench
The Jaguars were doing okay against the Bills Sunday, but then the guy who had scored two TDs for them was ejected for fighting, they pissed away a first-and-goal situation, and Buffalo won, 24-21. This extended the team’s losing streak to seven. The usually loquacious Jalen Ramsey couldn’t even say...
Jaguars Junction: Week Seven
Seems like everyone has something to say about Blake Bortles being benched. But have you ever been an NFL quarterback? No. So we turned to NFL quarterbacks themselves for their “take” on a tough situation....
My Goodness, The Jaguars Are A Mess
It is remarkable just how quickly a team that was one competent quarter away from the Super Bowl, and still looked like world-beaters two weeks into this season, has so completely fallen apart. Remarkable not for the why of it—injuries have taken out their top wide receiver, top running back, top tw...
Blake Bortles Gets Benched, And The Jaguars Are Tumbling
The Jaguars elected to bench Blake Bortles in the middle of today’s 20-7 loss to the Texans, instead opting to go with a quarterback that by definition would’ve been considered worse than Blake Bortles before the game. Surprisingly, he was slightly better....
Welcome Back To The Blake Bortles Experience
Hello and welcome back to the Blake Bortles show. Today, our hero valiantly tried to defeat triple coverage. You will not be surprised to learn that the throw was so ill-advised that the Cowboys got an interception almost by accident....
