CEN-CAL17 Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 They always give us a fit!!!! But every team knows beating the bills will prove their worthiness and the Jags went from worthy to crap and probably really want to prove to themselves and every other team they can play….

Warcodered Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 15 minutes ago, Process said: Von confirmed out this week. I mean he was pretty honest about it, he only gets the one padded practice before the game because of the shortened week, so it's going to be tough. But if he's already going to be back in pads it's not completely out there for him to be able to be back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they tried to keep pace with the locals, well, a pint every 45 minutes for twelve hours should soften them up nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poo Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 I'm a be in Ithaca Sunday morning at an Airbnb. I doubt we'll have NFL Network to watch at the house. Anyone recommend a bills bar/restaurant we could attend in the Ithaca area? Kid friendly would be a huge plus. Thanks family! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 3 hours ago, Bob Jones said: I guess that players with school age kids and wives/significant others have to leave them behind, but I’m pretty sure that players with wives and girlfriends (with no kids) pay for their travel to London so they don’t have to endure a 2-week separation. I would be shocked if the Jags organization told their players (and staff) that they couldn’t see their partners for the two weeks that they’re over there. They certainly couldn’t restrict any private citizen (wives/SOs) from traveling to London, and I don’t think that they could lock players up/restrict their movements during their free time during their 2 weeks over there. And I’m sure that the beds they’re sleeping in are quite comfortable, and of course the food is likely top notch, as is probably everything else. Some of y’all in here are acting like the Jags are locked up in a Gulag, in solitary confinement, sleeping on wooden beds. LOL Teams who play in the Super Bowl do the same thing for about 8-10 days, don’t they? Some players might have SOs fly out, but I dont think they stay with the team in the team hotel. They might get some time, but time is usually pretty limited as it is at home. Not sure it's even worth it. Certainly no Gulag. But it isnt the same and isnt as good. And all that gets real old, real fast. With the Super Bowl, the entire first week is pretty much a vacation, outside of media days. Point is, by the time we get to the Jags, plenty of them will be over it. 3 hours ago, Bob Jones said: LOTS of people cannot get regular sleep, or any sleep, on an airplane. I’m one of those people. Of course, an airplane seat is nowhere near as comfortable as a bed. To your point that they travel in style, the international flights they'll charter are stacked with those sleeper bed seats. And for those that can't sleep, I'm sure the staff doctor can help out. 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Occasionally military flights show up. But about anything with a transponder shows up. Now I'm thinking you're also a Ham or shortwave radio operator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Water Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 12 hours ago, Bob Jones said: Just spitballing it...I would have thought they'd go over Sunday night or first thing Monday morning. More time to adjust for tme difference. Maybe they had no place to set up shop and practice Tues-Sat? I think you need to balance adjustment to time difference, with maintaining the normal post-game recovery and "get right" routine. It's probably not the greatest idea to fill up a plane with a bunch of bruised and dinged players and let them stiffen. Better to do the normal recovery routine at home. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could have signed a Pro Bowl offensive lineman, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 13 hours ago, Chandler#81 said: In recent years, most teams have traveled Thursday, taking the ‘just deal with it’ attitude’ -like playing Thursday night.. For sports that travel internationally regularly that’s what the data has suggested. At least two weeks or just keep the momentum rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Still have to keep hammering here. Won’t be an easy game for lots of reasons. Can’t have a letdown after Miami and going to have our hands full with Ridley and no Tre White. Find a way to get it done, keep the run balance going and get another W.

EmotionallyUnstable Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 (edited) Quick glimpse into the Jags at the quarter turn compared to the rest of the NFL. Opponents listed below, to add your own grain of salt: Games: Colts (W), Chiefs (L), Texans (L), Falcons (W) Offense: PPG (20th) Pass/Run Ratio (58/42) 18th Completion % (12th) Passing yards (11th) Yards/Completion (21st) Yards/Carry (26th) Defense: Scoring (12th) Yards (17th) Sack % ( 22nd) Op. y/completion (24th) Op. y/rush (12th) Thoughts: I admittedly haven’t watched much of the Jags this year, aside from highlights and reading stats. From what I know about their roster and these statistics, along with the narratives that have been spoken about this team up until this point in the season, we are hands down the better team. Last Sunday saw both units operating at maximum efficiency. That won’t always be the reality. Although you may need games like that in January, I don’t feel like this is one of them. I think McD is smart enough to recognize that this game can be handled with fundamental football, lining up and playing soundly. We don’t need anything splash or special on either side of the ball. Just do you job, and I feel this will be a comfortable win. Edited October 4, 2023 by EmotionallyUnstable 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
