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.

As John McKay would say when asked, "What do you think of your team’s execution coach?” To which he replied, “I’m in favor of it.”

On any given Sunday I guess. But it doesn't look too hot. Urban Meyer is an easy guy to root against. 

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.

One of my favorite football soundbites of all time...

Urban Meyer must be missing his Ohio State days. I wonder how long he will last in the NFL.

 

He already said the NFL is like playing Alabama every week.

Yeah, and as bad as the Jags are, the Jets are right with them because they can't score at all. 

 

They've score 20 points in 3 games.

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.

The Texans are no slouch for stinking.

 

(In my head I heard “don’t jinx us”) I can’t wait to be rid of the pessimism when it comes to Bills success

Lmao! I remember watching that... Notre Dames coach caused a minor uproar when he tried to use the same humor in an interview but everyone freaked out of what he said...

 

He then had to clue people in on the joke

If they beat the Texans they are already at 28 losses. 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.

Unless they win this week I don't think Urban wins a game as a pro coach. I bet he jumps ship around Nov 1st for USC.
