Dominant running game, good quarterback and receivers.......why cant the jags get hot and run through the AFC ala Arizona.....not saying they WILL but 50/1 seems like good odds. Hell auburn was 50/1 to reach national title.
im not sold indianapolis can hold this division. i like oakland

If the Colts win out, Jaguars don't even get into the playoffs.

New York Giants had to win 3 on the road....obviously there is a reason they are 50/1 BUT i guarantee when indy loses to oakland and jax wins the division those odds will drop BIG TIME. so why not throw 7 bucks on it! lets see 7 * 50 = $350

Haven't the Jags only beaten one team with a winning record all season?

im just saying its a safe bet...but a good one.
50/1 odds for a team that has a chance to not only make the playoffs BUT host 1.....and they have a top 3 back in the league.
just saying.. would you bet 50/1 that the jags could get to the super bowl how they stand now?
or would you bet Auburn 50-1 before the season to win the national title?

because the NFL would never let that happen. Jacksonville is too small of a market, no good story so no big ratings. If they keep drawing small crowds, then the team can move to LA.
On the other hand, they have trouble selling tickets, maybe if they make the SB they will start selling out and the league will make more money.
No matter what happens you can be sure of this, it was planned, no way would they leave what ever they want to happen to chance, that's for sure.

I agree, but Garrard and Mojo Drew both have injury concerns now, although Garrard still had a huge game last week.

Have to mke playoffs first. I would be all for it. We would get torched by pats. Defensive backfield is suspect.

were you not arguing in this thread about how stupid the idea of fixed games were?
but the "nfl would never let that happen" and "it was planned" thats not at all anything close to "fixed" right?
here's just a tidbit of what you stated later on in that thread:
hat has been discovered? Seriously? That an NBA ref bet on some games and called fouls to help wins his bets? That players at BC, Tulane and Arizona St shaved points? That the White Sox threw the 1919 World Series? I'm not disputing that those things happen and will likely happen again. But once again we see you have the same problem of confirmation bias and absoutist thinking. Those events are isolated events, not proof that all sports are staged events like wrestling. Provide a link that shows any of these sports are staged like wrestling. Coincidences do not constitute proof. Just because people like you are so deeply cynical that you assume the worst doesn't prove anything either. Just because someone involved be it a ref, coach or player "fixed" a game or shaved points doesn't mean the whole league is involved. That is what I am saying doesn't happen. The league does not fix games to get certain matchups in the Super Bowl or Finals, they don't fix the draft so a certain player can go to a certain team. If that happened, we'd know. There'd would books, credible news stories all over the place. But there is not. You think I'm naive, but really my cynism is differnt than yours, I don't think they could pull it off. I don't think anyone is smart enough to pull off the type of decptions you do."
