Hey look! Jacksonville is now a desirable destination!

[SomebodytoAnybody47]

But before, Jets with the top spot was a toxic situation. Phew. 

[heymangold]

Yeah, never understood what made Jacksonville more attractive.  It’s the crappiest part of Florida and that organization is just as much a dumpster fire, if not more, as the Jets.  Sure they have picks and cap space - so do the Jets. I hope the NFL enjoys TLaw in London.

[HawkeyeJet]

Maybe they like fish and chips.

[Kenny]

Low stress, 2 first ropicks, cap space, some talent on defense. If you don’t mind working there and having a fan base who doesn’t care it’s a desirable job. 

[playtowinthegame]

No offense to the Jacksonville Jaguars, but there is no f-ing way they're a more desirable destination than the New York Jets. 

[Rangers9]

The Jags fired their GM you assume they will fire Marrone. I guess Idzik is still working in their front office although he was not named interim GM. Also the Jags have been rumored to be some day moving to London, UK. That is probably a stretch but there were stories about it and they played a number of games in London. 

[ToonforPrez]

This is why i hate Sports Media, To say Jacksonville Florida is more desirable then NYC is a joke. The kid is from GA I get it but to say because that part of FL is Like GA is a reach to get people to think Jacksonville is this alluring destination is comical.

..if i may,.. florida does NOT have a STATE income tax    ?

 

 

 

cheers ~ ~ 

[ScarletKnight89]

You knew this was going to be the case lol.

Nobody is asking whether Trevor Lawrence would want to get drafted by the Jaguars LMAO.

It's like the Jaguars are the epitome of how an NFL franchise should be run or something. 

Jalen Ramsey quit on the Jags last season and Ndgakoue called out the owners kid on Twitter just this year when he was still on the team. But nobody is talking about the "toxic situation" in Jacksonville.

To be honest, that’s the only thing that Florida wins.  I think the professional leagues should do something about that / though Florida teams haven’t traditionally been a powerhouse that is dominating sports.

[Defense Wins Championships]

• Trevor Lawrence. 

• A+ available salary cap space. 

• A+ draft capital. 

• State of Florida. 

Yes. The Jaguars become an attractive destination as an NFL Franchise. 

The Jets blew it. The very first week after securing Trevor Lawrence they're benching their starter and not letting their Star NFL RB play today.

They get it. They understand.

They aren’t talking about the cities, they are talking about the franchises.  From a football standpoint, they have more going for them right now.  For all the reasons that Jet fans were proclaiming how attractive the Jets job was when  they were controlling the first overall pick, the same can be said for Jacksonville now.  

[FidelioJet]

Yeah but Adam Gase didn't go winless.  That's what was important to Jets management. 

Good for CJ and JD.

Again, stop with the Jets blew it nonsense.  The Rams were 17 point favorites.  THEY blew it.

[BigRy56]

The idea is laughable. Jacksonville reeks of a franchise that won’t exist in 20 years

Exactly.  It's funny that people take it personally and say "NY Is better than Jacksonville".  They're obviously talking about from a "chance to win" perspective.  Though the lack of state income tax should absolutely be another reason.  Meanwhile NY's taxes (between state and federal) are rumored to be going up to 62% for the top bracket.  Who in their right mind would choose to pay that?!

Yeah, who would choose that place over going to coach a team in a shared stadium, working under the Johnsons, sky high taxes and having Governors Murphy and Cuomo telling you who can come to your house for dinner?

Khan is better than the Johnsons. Granted living In NY/NJ now kinda sucks...but it comes down to ownership. The Jaguars have been more competitive than the Jets recently.

[HighPitch]

You guys are funny with your endless bashing of jacksonville.

i live in fl. Never been to jax, but i am sure that it is like every other coastal fl towns with a crappy section and absolutely gorgeous sections. Guess what rich folks live in the gorgeous sections and im sure it is near paradise especially when compared to the boring snowed in freezing possibilities like buffalo, detroit, green bay, cincinatti, etc etc

give it a rest already

[Biggs]

It’s a wonderful place to count your money.  Spending it on stuff to make life worth living not so much. 

[Beerfish]

In this day and age of media and fans swinging wildly about teams and players in the short term, the whole Lawrence narrative is going to change over the next 3 weeks or so.

The can't miss, saviour Qb scenario will change when Bama kicks the shi* out of Clemson and Lawrence gets thrashed in the nat champ game two years in a row.

It's like signing on to add 4 complete and utter buffoons into your life and giving them control of you.  

[k-met57]

Literally the worst part of Florida. Which is saying something. For anyone to think that’s somehow more appealing to any athlete who isn’t afraid of the attention is laughable.

If Morgan starts that game even the Rams crappy play doesn't stop the Jets from losing.

There are 31 destinations more desirable than the Jets.

What is confusing about the Jags are cleaning house on the front office while the Jets were keeping most of the same structure in place? That makes it more attractive. I know people here like to attribute success to Joe D (and don't get me wrong, I've been ok with what his plan seems to be even though it went so wrong this year), but he hasn't actually had any..

And the education system to prove it.

[jetophile]

What is the functional literacy rate there? Not so great; but folks do sure know how to spell the word meth.

[TuscanyTile2]

If Urban Meyer somehow ends up going to Jax (which would obviously be because of Trevor), that would make last week's win exponentially worse.

You guys need to stop being butt hurt that the Jets are now the New York Knicks of the NFL. No one cares about playing in “New York” anymore
