Jacksonville Jaguars Week 12 Power Rankings: Bottom dwelling
After a loss that secured the franchise yet another guaranteed season under 0.500, the Jacksonville Jaguars don’t have much left to play for in a hopeless season.
Expectations weren’t very high when the Jaguars traveled to Buffalo to play the Bills last weekend. While the Jaguars aren’t getting blown out in spectacular fashion circa 2013 and 2014 under head coach Gus Bradley, they were still finding ways to lose close games.
Things weren’t any different last weekend, as the team squandered a dominant defensive effort in the first half against a potent Bills rushing attack, and horrific coaching decisions doomed an already unmotivated roster. With 5 more games, it’s comical to think Bradley is going to get his players up and ready to play for him when everyone on the planet knows he will be fired by the end of the regular season.
Here’s a brief collection of some rankings around the web as the Jaguars let the weight of a lost season sink them into oblivion yet again:
My take:
I don’t really have much to say or disagree with here. Could the Jaguars beat the Browns, 49ers, or Bears? Probably, it just depends on how many dumb mistakes they make. I certainly wouldn’t expect them to, and I wouldn’t be shocked if they lost to any of those teams. That being said, the Jaguars aren’t getting blown out in every game, so that’s a thing I guess. I’d put the Jaguars at 30 or 31.
