On to the JAGS

[Logic]

I feel like the team wouldn't have Von flying to London if they didn't plan to have him active.

It just seems like a lot to put a veteran through, body clock and travel wise, if your main goal is to be getting him back to full health for some future date.

Have to think that if he travels with the team, he'll suit up. How many snaps he plays is another story.

Yeah, I would think they will give him limited snaps just so he can get back into football shape.

40% of the snaps

 

4 sacks, 2 Forced Fumbles, Fumble Recovery, Touchdown! & then in the 2nd half….

 

Because why not?!?

I remember watching this pass. Josh is getting snowed under, and suddenly the ball emerges like it was shot out of a mortar. 
 

That was truly an unbelievable throw.

He was cleared a week before the season started so it's not like they've been rushing him back.

Practicing against air versus a NFL professional in a real game after a lite two days of practice doesn’t make sense IMO. I’m sure he’s wanting to play but I don’t see the need to put him into action this weekend.

[Special K]

Seeing the injury report, two straight DNP's for Rousseau....doesn't sound like he will be playing.

 

Poyer listed as a Full participant in practice...sounds good for him.

 

Von with two straight Limited practices.....is this enough, coupled with Rousseau's foot injury, for Von to see some playing time??

[RunTheBall]

Rousseau has a foot bruise. It will be a game time decision but I bet he plays. They are giving him extra time to rest it. I’d rather not see Von out there but maybe he and Groot split snaps if Groot plays.

Is it confirmed a foot bruise?

[Steptide]

Total speculation here, but Matt Barkleys wife is posting Instagram stories from the UK. Is it possible they're gonna re sign Barkley to the practice squad? Wouldn't shock me. Believe he's eligible to be re signed after 4 weeks, which woukd be now

From what I read, I think Jones or Oliver came down on his foot with a knee. If it was broke, we’d know and he’d be on IR.

Could very well be. Could be that they planned to go and already had the tickets to fly and decided "why not". The chance to hang with friends in London would be something they likely looked forward to. Time will tell, for sure.

I cheered the Josh pick from the beginning (I have witnesses to prove it haha). But this throw was when I first knew this dude was special. It's still in his top 5 highlights in his career. Absolutely amazing.

Yup. 

Those folks can drink. I have worked with plenty of folks from Ireland (company had sites there) and with Germans from Leverkusen.

Thought I could hold my own 😅. Not so much, they can drink beer (and wine) like it is water.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah they can.  I lived in England for some time.  When got there, three or four pints would do me in.  By the time I moved back home, I could drink a 5th of Jim Beam in a day and still walk, which is not a good thing.  I most certainly cannot do that now, thank god.

I remember this timeframe as the ‘Josh is the one’ era.  The minny jump game as well.  We had found a truly special QB. So happy!

I’d feel much better about this game if it wasn’t in London

From the above posts, it looks like the Jags are all comfy and adjusted to London, while the Bills are getting there at 6:30 in the moring when they normally would go to sleep. Great. And we are supposed to be the home team with an advantage??

 

Also, anyone know where the above Jaguars practice field is? It's definitely not London. Looks like is in the middle of nowhere. And which one is Press Taylor?

Look at the Chiefs sitting there at 1-5 after six weeks in the 2015 season. Hard to believe.
