Scobee Signs


It’s the same story with every franchise. Everyone feels the need to hate on the kickers until the team is two points down and forty yards away from the end zone with the clock winding down. There are few Kickers in the NFL who are better in these game-winning situations than Josh Scobee, and luckily he will remain a Jaguar for at least the next four years. Yesterday Scobee signed a contract worth $13.8 Million, with $4.75 million guaranteed.

For some people this may seem like a hefty amount to pay a Kicker, but for Jacksonville it was the right move. Josh Scobee has developed a bit of a cult following in his years in Jacksonville and as I see it is now one of the more popular players on the team. I’m not saying that if the Jaguars were to lose Scobee in the near future it would be devastating but on a team with two playoff appearances in the last decade, fans tend to latch on to what bright spots they can find, and Josh Scobee delivered several happy moments. So congratulations Josh, and thank you Jacksonville, for letting us fans keep one of our favorite players. Now if we can just do the same for MoJo…

Tealergangin' Em

"Jag-swag" is my least favorite Jaguar-related phrase. It's catchy like that "Call Me Maybe" song and both are referenced by people who mostly suck at living. Hopefully, like that song, it'll fade out. "Tealergangin'" might not rhyme but it'll make you feel just as much a rap artist. Words aside, check this shit out:



Damn straight. This is the Jag's alternate jersey. Khan said, "all black everything." So did Jay-Z. Whether it's your skin, mustache or jersey... it's boss shit. Money, power, blackness?

Need Answers? There's An Old Guy For That!

For those who are not aware, the senior writer for the Jaguars is John Oehser. On Jaguars.com, he answers the fans questions in what is known as the O-Zone. Not only will you find the teal truth for your amateur inquiries, but they will be coated with ingenious wit that is all but not amusing. Oehser, despite working for the Colts, is one of the greatest players not found on this franchise's roster. Pay homage and seek your unknown here: The O-Zone.

Hot update: The O-Zone is live. This means you won't have to check back during a 3-day reply period because John wishes to get your foolish questions out of the way immediately. Hot heaven! You're not off the hook though. Check every version of the O-Zone for every entertaining question voiced by your slightly educated peers. And, hot excitement!

The Glass Is Half Full

Justin Blackmon will play the largest role in the Jaguar's upcoming season, if he can find a place to stay besides jail or a casket.

I had hoped his signing bonus might provide the service of a personal driver, maybe even cab money, but this was not the case. The case was Blackmon's second DUI charge. The Jaguars drafted the rookie to fill a void in the struggling offense and provide our second-year quarterback, Blaine Gabbert, with potential weapons. In this effort, they signed three key wide-receivers; Justin Blackmon, Laurent Robinson, and Lee Evans.

Evans is a veteran with solid hands. The most he can do is find inspiration to revamp his career and break-out. The least he can do is mentor the receiving squad. Robinson's career was on a statically-noticable decline until a break-out season last year with the Cowboys. He found the end-zone 14 times and kept an injured offense on track. I have faith that he has found the inspiration to revamp his career, leading me to believe that Evans and Robinson will be able to draw from each other's values and provide wisdom for our young quarterback and wide-receivers.

Blackmon was drafted after four incredible years at Oklahoma State. This guy is the real fucking deal. He consistently displays a wide clutch, as well as an explosive drive after the catch. ESPN's Sports Science exposed his abilities, which include the receiving range of a two-car garage. You're going to observe that, here: Sports Science: Justin Blackmon.

With a full off-season for Gabbert to test out the new artillery, the Jags are looking good and we're feeling even better. There is absolutely no room in this bandwidth for the pessimist to remain pessimistic. The wide-receiving unit must be a unit, feeding off each other's strengths and facilitating each other's weaknesses. If Blackmon can make it to the stadium and consistently display his catch, drive, and swerve on the field, he will fortify this unit and assume the greatest role on this franchise's roster.

Operation: Duval Nation Domination

Most of today's society knows Taylorgang as Wiz Khalifa's posse of joint-toting rap artists. They are an interesting group for numerous reasons but only two are relevant to this post; a worldwide following and success. Wiz established his gang's following and success by making it clear that the roots of belief are imperative. Does it get old hearing the gang's repeated beliefs in every song? Sure, but being old is being distinguished and it is admirable to see an ever-present authenticity in any type of industry.

Mocking Wiz's recipe is a fucking great idea. I see no better chef than our equally loved and hated Jacksonville Jaguars. Looking back, it feels like we've come from nothing. Not once has our organization put in an order for Superbowl rings. Not once has our organization even made it to the title game. It is dismal and it is time for change. Let's use Taylorgang's advantageous ingredients and stir the pot into something admirable.

Through this blog, we will establish ourselves as a worldwide following that seeks success. Our beliefs are imperative; the Jaguar's potential is progressively tapped by the volume of each fan's voice, and this franchise will win a damn Super Bowl. Let's throw those on repeat, become old, and distinguish ourselves. We are Tealergang and we're cooking up a Super Bowl. Consider this your prep time.
