If the Jaguars can't turn it around now ...
They are in deep trouble. The Jaguars were already going to attempt to pillage Indy's lightweight defensive line, weakened by Ed Johnson's release. Indy was pushed around by the big uglies against Chicago and Minnesota until selling out all resources to stop the run in the second half against the Vikings.
The Colts linebackers aren't bad (Clint Session looks like a nice find), but this team is still in deep trouble without Bob Sanders. Maurice Jones-Drew and Fred Taylor have historically lit up the Colts. Jacksonville's size advantage matches up well. But the Jaguars backs have lost their way after an avalanche of offensive line injuries, gaining only 97 rushing yards and a 2.77 YPC average in the first two weeks. If MJD and Taylor don't Taylor don't put up big numbers against the Colts, it's going to be a long season for their owners.

I really didn't appreciate #98 for the colts viciously diving at my legs from behind, so I could care less if every starter on their team gets injured. The Colts are a bunch of vags

Saw that. Also noticed you didn't run that well after that play - except one big reception.

I'm glad you hyped Scobee in the preseason. He'll get a lot of chances.

Yeah it was a bad tackle but I apologized to you and you said it was cool. There was an article about it in the Indy Star.

MJD is bunk garbage. I just traded for him, cost be a bag of pretzels. He's a poor man's Marion Barber, WHEN he plays, which is not very often. Feel bad for the schlep who drafted him in our keeper league and has him rotting on his bench. Now he's rotting on mine, all for the price of some Rold Gold's.

MJD isn't garbage. The O-line is a huge issue. MJD could be a top back, if Del Rio ever figures out how to use him. He need 20+ touches a game and he'll put up great numbers...
get a clue Nabisco douche...

Let me add, theres a tremendous amount of respect for Fred Taylor in that organization. MJD is clearly the better back but you dont kick an old mans cane out from under him, which in this case is the starting role from Taylor.He will get hurt soon enough, be patient.
