Jacksonville Jaguars Roundup 9/6

Jacksonville Jaguars Roundup 9/6 : We have seen that this step of Jack del Rio before. And oddly enough, quarterback of the last time the we with the founding of blind-sided only a few days before the season opener, things are very good for coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Almost four years ago to the day released veteran quarterback Byron Leftwich, Del Rio on september 1, 2007, just a little more than a week before the season at home against Jacksonville, Tennessee opened. Del Rio de Leftwich had drafted in the first round in 2003, but after four injury-plagued season, usually frustrating, and he called on the striking immobile AB-Marshall and threw the keys to the team by more athletic backup, David Garrard.

"This decision requires some fat to make a strong belief, and I got it, " Del Rio said at the time.

Fast forward to this time Tuesdays is at the beginning of September starts the Garrard. After the fourth season was centered and Jaguars when Sunday opened the season at home against-guess-Tennessee, Luke McCown. The veteran Jacksonville offense work.

I suppose the fans of Rio and Jaguars, wherever they are hoping that history repeats itself, because in 2007, Jacksonville went on to finish 11-5, earn a wildcard berth and upset the owner of the Super Bowl Steelers in a game of first-round playoff franchise Pittsburgh travel-for the postseason. Garrard was stellar in that season, throwing 18 touchdowns and three interceptions in 12 starts, eventually earning a rich contract extension the next spring.

But even at this last minute stroke or recent del Río, despair? The upcoming season should tell the story very clearly the results of Jacksonville in 2011.

Garrard, 33, and the history of the latest back pain. Working with the clock is ticking on his head in Jacksonville this season. Team players drafted in Missouri with 10 recipient Blaine Gabbert in April, and it is a matter of time before took over for Jaguars and had taken his only start, after the previous season and of the dangers of rookie seemed Gabbert has abated now Pro Bowl is just as Garrard 2009 seems as it has survived and get the chance to open the ninth and final del Rio, but in a central season Jacksonville, but it is not.

The real twist Gabbert, your favorite, the randomness of the del Rio t for the start of the call. It is the eighth year of McCown, a veteran, a little more than a journeyman NFL was career. If the del Rio, believes he give the best reception in Jacksonville, Florida, they win speaks as far away from the Gabbert is not ready for the No. 1 work and how much of the end of the line by his one-time Garrard, the Redeemer was pissed. Is it the second dose of del Rio on a strong or only slightly to the left to lose? You can decide.

After three consecutive winning seasons of del Rio knows that he must win now. Jaguar owner Wayne Weaver brought him this season, but has been evident in the playoffs or bust of a resolution in the air. Given this background, del Rio, obviously it wasn't a ' ready to go down with the ship, as long as Garrard was behind the wheel. While saving approximately 9 million dollars from Garrard in the release well Tuesday, heading more about del Rio, taking his best shots with his girlfriend, even if this guy is a player with a seldom tracklist that McCown. Del Rio probably won't/don't think he had the patience to wait Gabbert promoted, no stomach to endure two more steps forward, three steps back to the season with Garrard.


So once again, the Jaguars coach decided to Roll it into the game and the most important position. Only five days before the Giants visit Jacksonville with a pair of new players with veteran Matt Hasselbeck a and rookie Jake locker (No 8), the Jaguars exceeded and went broke. Instead of Garrard, which serve to have Fort to elevated Gabbert, will McCown may now be in the future only in Jacksonville, the disclosure itself through every week this season.

In the end, Peyton Manning of the Colts lineup for a long period, the AFC looks more Winnable than it was just days ago. It's brilliance, or kind of stupidity, that were born with too much pressure following the end of summer the gamble worked once to del Rio, excellent results. In his own mind echoes of 2007 should be unmistakable. Now we get to see if the Jaguar can replace Garrard, that someone like, well, Garrard, circa 2007. So far can be del Rio alone is the only one who looks at McCown and sees the future.
