Jacksonville Jaguars slipping to end season on historical lowest – NFL News
The Jacksonville Jaguars are fast slipping in the National Football League (NFL) standings, on a course to end the season at the worst note since 1995 when they finished with 4-12 record.
With four more games to go in the season, the Jags have only two hard-fought wins yet. Their performance does not reflect if they could be able to pull off another pair of games to match that record. There is also fear they will end up at the bottom of the
league’s 2012 season table given the way they are performing at the moment.
Coach Mike Mularkey thought the Jags might build on the win they had recorded versus the Tennessee Titans on past Sunday (Nov. 25) after losing seven straight games. This did not happen and the team is back on the losing route with a 34-18 loss to the Buffalo
Bills on Sunday December 02.
Mike showed his disappointment saying:
"I don't think we gave ourselves a chance to make it a game. I thought after the last two weeks we were really making progress."
If the Jags end the season at the bottom, they might have an opportunity for selection of some quality talent off THE 2013 draft and then rebuild the team the way the Indianapolis Colts – who were the worst performing outlet in the league in 2011 – have
done.
A particular worry for the Jags is their offence leadership. Quarterback Blaine Gabbert has failed them twice in two seasons in a row. He has recently been replaced with Chad Henne, a backup QB, who has performed rather well, at least better than Blaine.
Blaine has suffered a season-ending arm injury.
If the team is able to recruit a quality QB from the draft, there is no reason why they should not be able to rebuild themselves as a winning unit in a year or so. It is also pertinent to note here how much the new owner Shahid Khan is willing to spend on
the quality of talent, which nevertheless will pay him in the longer run in form of success of his team.
