Gardner Minshew just took us to the limit.

Next week, Phillip Rivers. That should be fun.

In his defense, he looks like the real deal.  I watched whole KC game last week and he was efficient vs. them as well. I'm more concerned that every pass we throw is within a foot of the sideline.  We seem to be ignoring about 53 feet of green where TEs and RBs and a slot receiver should be running wild.  Not sure if it's playcalling or if Watson just isn't confident going thru reads, but we've got the best talent we've ever had in TE/Slot/Receiving RB, and we gotta get em involved.  Pass protection was actually dang solid today against a scary front 7, but we've got to start using the whole field, not just out wide.   Hyde looked great today - like practically no dropoff from Miller.

He’s definitely not playing like no rookie. He’s got some moxy.

As if we didn’t need anything else bad, Mercilius is having a contract season that’s gonna get him an inflated contract 

Unlike the Nick "shoelaces" Martin extension which was done early for no apparent reason, we should have had an extension in Mercilus' locker the day after the Clowney trade.  Of course, that would require someone actually thinking more than a week in advance which apparently isn't required in a billion dollar organization.

Correction - $3.1 billion*

Good to hear this coming from someone outside of the fan base/working for the team. Felt this way last week and he reaffirmed it this week.

As a Jags fan it's pretty hard not to be optimistic so far. Idk what he becomes, but there's something different about him.

It feels weird to be this optimistic at 0-2.
