eball Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 I guess I didn't realize the Jags are currently on an 18-game losing streak, which is 3rd all-time since the AFL/NFL merger. Should they lose to Cinci Thursday night they will match the 2nd longest such streak, matching the Detroit Lions' run of ineptitude that bracketed their 0-16 campaign. The all-time worst? Tampa Bay, who lost the first 26 games of their existence. Looking ahead...if Jacksonville doesn't end their streak before then, they will carry a 22-game skid into the 11/7 matchup with Buffalo. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jags Remaining Schedule: @Bengals Titans Dolphins bye @Seahawks Bills @Colts 49ers Falcons @Rams @Titans Texans @Jets @Patriots Colts Best shot of ending the skid are @ Bengals, Dolphins, @ Colts, or Falcons. But I don't feel hugely confident. If they get to Buffalo, I am guessing they at least tie the record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corta765 Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 (edited) So here is the wild thing with the Jags and how bad the Lions have been by comparison and why no team even nears how bad the Lions are. Even though the Jaguars have been absolutely awful for the last decade plus, they have the same number of conference title game appearances and one more playoff win then Lions in the last decade then the Lions since the SB 1. The Jags are bad but odds are at some point they will put it together in some capacity. What truly is wild with Detroit is just how abysmal and awful they have been where they literally have expansion teams that have sucked with success winning and doing more.

They would just be breaking their own record at that point. I know I listed 4 teams they "could" beat. But really I think it is probably just @Bengals coming off of a big Pittsburgh win and/or the Falcons. But I wouldn't bet my mortgage on either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to be fair - they weren’t satisfied until they went 1-15. I can’t imagine winning game #1 against a playoff team and then dumping the next 15 - what a joke. The worst thing is looking at their schedule they might only be the 3rd or 4th worse team on that schedule by the end. They have the Texans again, the Falcons, and the Jets. That should be an amazing Christmas game - Jets/Jags for the #1 pick - the winner gets 💩 under 🎄. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Flanders Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 The entire AFC South is irrelevant...especially Jacksonville, which is only Gainesville with a skyline. The NFL should not be there. They would be better off in St. Louis but I'm not sure they would want them, having been spurned twice by awful ownership.
