Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman Marcell Dareus is currently facing two separate lawsuits that accuse him of sexual assault. Both anonymous plaintiffs—one woman from Las Vegas and another in Texas—say that Dareus had sex with them while they were blacked out or otherwise incapacitated. The Texas woman also…
Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles reportedly helped stop a would-be robber at his teammate Brandon Linder’s house on Wednesday night, when an 18-year-old high school student tried to steal Bortles’ truck from the driveway in the middle of a party. According to TMZ, the kid failed because the truck was boxed in by…
It’s a known but unverified rumor that Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles likes to partake in Jacksonville’s nightlife, specifically beach bars. (Specifically an establishment called Lemon Bar.) But in a recent interview, the QB says that’s no longer the case and hasn’t been for a couple of years. He does still love…
Why on earth would the Jaguars sign the quarterback who has spent much of his four-year career doing shit like this—
Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue said Bills offensive lineman Richie Incognito used racist slurs towards him in the two teams’ playoff game, but the two players have settled their differences—according to the guy who supposedly said the racist slurs.
It probably won’t enter the annals of all-time great postseason plays, mostly because it was done in service of extending the Patriots’ exhausting run of dominance and only served to thwart Blake Bortles, but Stephon Gilmore’s fourth-quarter swat is one of the finest plays you’ll ever see in a big moment.
It’s Monday in Jacksonville.
I’m not saying the AFC title game was fixed for the Patriots, but holy shit that was some powerful home field advantage. The Jacksonville Jaguars were flagged six times for 98 yards while the Patriots were called once, for a holding penalty on a kickoff, for 10 yards. The last time any team was called for only one…
The New England Patriots overcame the loss of Rob Gronkowski and a ten-point second-half deficit to defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars, 24-20, and return, like the swallows to Capistrano, to the Super Bowl. Fuck this shit.
Rob Gronkowski left the field in the first half of today’s AFC Championship after absorbing a helmet-to-helmet hit from Jaguars safety Barry Church. Tom Brady’s pass left Gronk in a vulnerable position stretching for the grab, and Church was flagged for unnecessary roughness. Gronk seemed wobbly on his feet after the…
Last week’s Titans-Patriots simulation was a bloodbath, seeing 14 total players get injured including both starting quarterbacks. Will the players in today’s simulation avoid a similar fate? More importantly, who will win? Your Tecmo Super Bowl simulation is LIVE:
The Jaguars have spent all season being doubted and picked against, both by opponents and by just about every neutral observer who has paid attention to the franchise over the last 18 years or so. And no one appeared quite so confident that these were the “same old Jags” as the Pittsburgh Steelers, who spent the week…
Jacksonville is the largest city in America by the “measure that counts,” according to geographers—total land area, rather than population. In this way Jacksonville is America’s number one city.
Maybe this is stupid, but my first thought after the Jaguars beat the Steelers to advance to the AFC Championship game was, “I can’t wait to see what Jalen Ramsey has to say about this.”
It’s always nice when a shocking playoff loss comes with a handful of moments that can be picked out as the definitive causes of the collapse. Following their 45-42 loss to the Jaguars, the Steelers are left with these: two failed fourth-down conversions, a botched onside kick, and Mike Tomlin’s poor clock management.
Thanks to a 45-42 victory over the Steelers today, the Jaguars will face the Patriots in the AFC Championship next week. After jumping out to a 21-0 lead early in the second quarter thanks to three rushing touchdowns, Jacksonville did enough to hold off a five-score, 469-yard game from Ben Roethlisberger and go home…
Leonard Fournette left today’s AFC Divisional playoff with an apparent ankle injury in the second quarter, with Jacksonville leading Pittsburgh, 21-7. He limped off the field and made his way to the locker room shortly thereafter:
Bills offensive guard Richie Incognito was accused by Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue of using racist slurs during Jacksonville’s playoff defeat of Buffalo on Sunday. But Bills GM Brandon Beane didn’t seem to think much of any potential in-game exchange between the two.
Bills fans celebrated their team’s (short-lived) playoff run by traveling to Jacksonville in droves, laying waste to any table-like structure in their path, reportedly starting a garbage fire, drinking local bars dry, and generally behaving as expected. Jaguars fans also got to toast to their first home playoff game…
Well, well, well. Well, well, well. Looks like the whole damn world has “cat scratch fever” now (NFL). But where were ya—back in the day?????
