A HoFer and one of the best ever in the sixth is definitely lucky. I love Colbert but no one saw Brown being our number one WR let alone our greatest WR in franchise history.


Lynn Swann and Hines Ward would like a word.

E/ i typed Plaxico Burress and Antwaan Randle-El but my phone corrected it

They can have all of the words they want. Brown is without question the best in franchise history. If he keeps up the same production for a few more years he will be one of the greatest in league history. Hell. Even now, he could be considered. One of the best in league history. His production via number of catches, yards, and even TDs over the past 5 years or so is one of the greatest 5 year spans in the history of the game.

Artie Burns left practice today from a non-contact injury. Not a good sign

I wouldn’t laugh if I was you. Steelers is a better matchup for New England than jacksonville

Now i'm laughing at you

Yeah a team led by a mid tier QB who's used to playing in warm weather who just threw his first postseason touchdown pass last week has a better chance of beating us in COLD foxborough than a team (who shouldve beat us in the regular season) led by a HoFer QB who's played in big games like these, in the cold, all his career. Yeah that makes a lot of sense to me :bonk:

Hako has even said fournette (probably like 1/10th or more of jax's total offense) doesn't like playing in cold weather.

I'm praying the jags win, doubt it happens.

Bortles is not mid tier. He sucks. Has nothing to do with a cold January football game, there’s 22 players on the field at once.


One too many hits by Jack or Ngakoue or Fowler and Brady could be done for. Steelers pass rush is good but their secondary is leaky. None of Jacksonville’s defense is bad. And New England doesn’t have a RB good enough to run on them

Slightly below average is probably a better description of bortles than mid tier i guess.

QB is the most important position in the game and i doubt you'd even argue otherwise. To say (to quote you) he has "nothing to do with a cold January football game" is nonsensical and silly.

And you don't think the patriots can't successfully game plan for the jaguars d? Ive seen brady beat as good or better defenses ( "legion of boom" seahawks, broncos, etc). Brady will get the ball out fast.

"New england doesn't have a RB good enough to run on them"

I guess you don't watch many patriots games, dion lewis can easily run on them. He finished second in the league in Y/A amongst all RBs and was named 2nd team All Pro per PFF...

Lewis will get broken in half


Pats haven’t played a defense this good all year


Yes Bortles is bad and it’s a major hindrance for the jags


But broncos won a SB with broken Peyton Manning 2 years ago, I think Jacksonville will be okay, Bortles can at least run for a couple first downs
