Awesome Denard Quote
"You know what? We had a walk through yesterday and after the walk through he stayed after and wanted to get extra work. We had some time left over in our daily schedule and it’s very important to him. As a coach when he’s talented like he is and it’s that important to him that’s all you ask. If he’s willing to put the time in like he is and really understand the concepts and what’s important to us then he’s got a good chance." Jaguars Head Coach Gus Bradley on Denard Robinson.
This was in reference to:
Denard Robinson connected with Mike Brown on a 25-yard pass out of the wildcat formation. Robinson also handed off to Maurice Jones-Drew for a big play out of the same formation.

Who woulda thought!?!?! He was so mediocre at Michigan I hated him and his stupid smile.
This kid is* something special.
yeah I'm ALMOST as excited to watch the Jaguars this year as the Wolverines. It just sucks that I probably won't see that many Jaguars games on tv because of the region. I'm hoping when I switch satellite companies in the next couple months it'll come with NFL Sunday Ticket for free for a few months. *crosses fingers*
You shouldn't have a problem finding a stream online.
Assuming I had decent service. I live out in the sticks. I barely get 3G cell coverage. It's not the fast internet you city-folk have. I'll still try though.
The best time to go to NFL for followers of rookies. First preseason game, first time to see him in action. Will Campbell should also get his feet wet on the Jets' OL. (Chad Henne, David Harris, and Braylon Edwards may get a little practice too.)
Keep on going, Shoelace! You'll make Jacksonville love ya the same way Ann Arbor does in no time.
I don't care how much or little he contributes, he will be on my fantasy team... I absolutely love the guy.
The good 'ole Waggle. That was Lloyd's "Trick Play". DG did it a few times last year, but maybe not by design.
This is true. I was honestly hoping he would go to the Eagles and Chip Kelly would just make them Oregon 2.0.
1. (as noted by others) the Jags suck, why not try it?
2. They call him an "offensive weapon" - why get cute with a 5th round pick otherwise?
3. A couple big plays out of the wildcat in training camp means they're at least snapping him the ball some to try it. Connecting on passes and making the right reads (hand to MJD for a big gain) will lead to the Jags trying it in a game.
My big bet is we see zero snaps to Denard in the preseason. They'll use that time to work on being a WR/RB and get him the ball conventionally. Then the Jags will run some stuff for him after the season starts.
Denard being Denard
Didn't the Jags have to tarp over some of their upper deck for some games recently?
We were offered a deal through our company to buy individual game tickets for $15 below the season ticket price. The company is subsidizing to support the Jags......and it looks like they need a lot of help.
Denard to Henne, 97 yards!
shot my beer through my nose reading that BlueDragon!
The only way this could ever happen would be the refs not noticing Henne snagging the bubble screen riding in a golf cart down the sidelines! That would be epic!
Wish Denard (and Henne) all the best in Jacksonville.
It looks like Gabbert and Henne will be switching between QB1 & QB2 while Denard will probably be set at as a the Wildcat QB1A. Of course people who don't know his game will say he can't throw in actual NFL game situations, but we all saw him in 2010. He can throw it just fine if the playcaller knows what they're doing.
Ha. Made me laugh out l oud. I agree. I like what they're trying to do, but it looks weird as hell in that picture of Denard.
I was on the fence when they unveiled them but mother of god do those things look hideous in the wild.
...that I upvoted this thread before I even read anything?
...smart move on my part. Denard is going to be around for a loooong time. Just too much talent mixed with work ethic. However, that helmet? Gross. I see what they were trying to do...and it almost worked out, but the trasition is awesome. Bring back the SDSU transitioning helmet!
1. Denard in the wildcat, YES!!
2. Henne's rhythm getting sabotaged by the wildcat again, damn
