Foreigner Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 We all saw the game yesterday. They out played and out coached the Steelers. So be it. Let the best team win this weekend, Pats or Jags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphWilson'sNewWar Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I would say it was more luck that the Steelers game was even close. All of 4 TD passes by Steelers were so 50/50. 4 chucks and prayers two on 4th down with good coverage by the Jags and they ALL hit?! That is a little lucky.

ddaryl Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) If that's the case then the Bills are much closer to greatness than many billieve. All we need is a better QB and we could of destroyed the Jags in jax. We held them to 10 points and missed plenty of opportunity to win that game SO the power of transitive relations we would beat Pittsburgh as well (with sed phantom QB)... Of course insert phantom QB and we beat NE at least once this year as well, and don't crap out on TNF against the Jets, and Peterman never puts up a dud in San Diego Life is for good us Bills fans.

Alphadawg7 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) I wouldnt call it luck, I will call it STUPIDITY on first and goal on the 1 to throw a pass and terrible play calling at end of half to allow a 7 point swing just before halftime...the margin we lost by. Should have been us getting destroyed and throttled by Brady this weekend, not the Titans. Edited January 15, 2018 by Alphadawg7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zqueezr Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 To me the Jags team has Coughlin fingerprints all over it like Incognito said...just like the 2007 Giants , I wouldn’t be surprised one bit if they roll NE too..imo Coughlin is directing Marrone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaviorPeterman Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 No luck about it, and even if the Jags season comes to an end against the Patriots the chatter in league circles has picked up again regarding Marrone being the next Bill Parcells type of coach. People are also now seeing why he was justified leaving Buffalo and not wanting to work for terrible owners like the Pegulas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They hired Beane and McD who are doing a nice job so far. They're good owners who support the community and team, and don't give in to Goodell and his "we need a new stadium to compete" bullcrap. So your league circles tell you people are chattering that Marrone is the next Parcells? Hahahahahahahahahaha we'll see. He did a very nice turnaround in the Cuse program, but he had next to nothing to do with putting the Jags roster together, except bringing in Marcel and his $54M which MY league circles say they didn't need to begin with. The guy is by no means a proven NFL coach, but I'm rooting for him this Sunday along with the rest of the nation. I'd love to see Jax MInny for the bowl. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marrone INHERITED an excellent situation in Jax. That roster is loaded with talent compared to the current Bills roster but yet they managed one more win. I'd love to hear your rational on labeling the Pegula's terrible owners of the Bills. They have made significant changes since they have bought the team and all signs are trending up.

BillsFan130 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I don't think it was luck. They won games how NE wins a lot of games. They didn't beat themselves, and they let the other team self destruct. 4 plays that made the difference .. 1. The sack fumble/TD 2. The INT by Jack 3. Steelers Not converting on 4th and inches 4 Steelers once again not converting on 4th and 1. 3 and 4 I listed above were just huge mental errors by Tomlin/Haley. Tomlin also had a few questionable calls during the game, like doing the onside kick. So I would say no it wasn't luck, it was taking advantage of mistakes by Big Ben, Tomlin, and Haley that were ultimately the difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIZ Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I still hate Marrone and cannot root for him. His team is full of punks. Can't stand the Pats either. Won't root for either AFC team, but will root for either NFC team in the Super Bowl. Hoping it's the Vikings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadLandsMeanie Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I am glad we played them tough. But I am not sure our defense was that great against them because the Jags did not have to take any chances. They only had to beat 3 points. So why take a bunch of chances flinging it all over the field? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Correct it's not luck... It's a dominating defense in a conference with 15 ****ty teams and the Patriots. That's all it is.

boyst Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) i didn't watch a lick of the game yesterday. i cashed in my chips after the Bills game and the bad calls, not to mention the other bad calls that weekend. and haven't watched a single piece of football except for highlights i stumble across online or in the news. i still haven't seen diggs big touchdwon I'm done for the season and found better things to do with my days than the NFL for the remainder of the year. but... 1) the jaguars defense is the most mechanical defense i've ever seen and able to run things so schematically correct that they are able to stop other teams. that they give up chunks of yards and are not perfect is obvious. they're not perfect. dareus isn't doing them the justice they hoped. they need an outside pass rusher - a Jerry Hughes 2014 type. but, they're damn good enough to beat the patriots offense hands down and will give the patriots a fit. 2) their offense was solid in the game against us, the only game i watched them play and i believe i saw enough in that game to know they can win ball games including the super bowl. they're not much different than the vikings or whoever won between phili and atlanta. every team out there is on borrowed time and there is no reason to think that the jags are any different. c) marrone is a puppet to the team lead by coordinators and spearheaded by coughlin. his influence is all over that team and you'd wonder why his coordinators are not receiving any attention. hacket runs the offense. he does a damn good job of it with the players able to run the scheme he wants. he didn't ahve that in buffalo i wanted marrone to stay. give him one more year. negotiate a contract with him that is a prove it deal for one year if he wanted out. if he gets us in to the playoffs that year - and he would have - i'd be fine paying him. 4) i have only seen one jaguars game all season and about 6 patriots games. i say jaguars by +3.5.

John from Riverside Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Im not gonna blame Marrone for lucking into a team that was picking in the blue chip draft selections for years........but the jags didnt win that game....the steelers lost it.

The truth is that during the regular season this year, the Jags beat exactly ONE team that made it to the playoffs (the Steelers). Their schedule was very weak this year, thus their "great" defense is a bit of a mirage. To wit, giving up 545 yards and 42 points in a playoff game. Did the great defenses of yesteryear of the Ravens, or the Bears, or the Steel Curtain ever do that (or even close to that)? I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
