For those concerned about drastic changes, worry not.

Chargers roll on depressing night in Jacksonville
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on December 5, 2011, 11:48 PM EST
The nicest moment on a depressing night for Jaguars fans in Jacksonville came when they showed owner Wayne Weaver on the Jumbotron.
The fans stood as one and applauded Weaver for bringing pro football to town. This was his national tv send-off, with the sale of the team expected to grow to be official subsequent month.
There weren’t a lot of other reasons to cheer during a 38-14 loss to Chargers. The crowd was somewhat sparse to commence the night, and practically empty by the finish. Here’s what we learned:
1. It’s wonderful how Philip Rivers looks healthy when he has all his weapons and gets a small protection. Rivers threw for 294 yards and 3 touchdowns on only 28 attempts. The old huge play Chargers offense was back. He threw six distinct passes for more than 20 yards.
2. Malcom Floyd was back in the Chargers lineup and produced a enormous difference with 4 catches for 108 yards. It was the very first game considering that Week 1 when Floyd, Vincent Jackson, and Antonio Gates all had been healthful together.
3. The Chargers are nonetheless technically alive in the playoff race at 5-7. Seeing the offense play like this has to be frustrating for Chargers fans. It’s effortless to imagine the Chargers beating Buffalo next week and finding individuals talking about a achievable December run. But the offensive line and defensive problems won’t go away for a month.
The Jaguars just didn’t have the weapons to make San Diego pay on Monday night.
four. You know it’s a poor sign for Blaine Gabbert when Jon Gruden is criticizing him. Gruden stated he requirements to see more from Gabbert or he’d have to strongly contemplate drafting one more quarterback subsequent year. This is a point we’ve been creating lately. The new CBA makes it significantly less complicated to bring in other choices.
Gabbert’s final numbers didn’t look terrible due to the fact of a 48-yard shovel pass to Maurice Jones-Drew, but the rookie’s weaknesses showed up in a scoreless second half against a terrible defense. He still averaged under six yards-per-attempt. There’s zero pocket presence or accuracy. Absolutely nothing goes down the field. It’s not all about the lack of weapons.
five. Possibly the most depressing factor we saw all night: A sign imploring the Jaguars to trade for Tim Tebow. It’s been that type of year for the three-9 Jaguars.

Tebow would’ve literally saved the franchise….for a few a lot more years. Oh properly!!!
. You know it’s a negative sign for Blaine Gabbert when Jon Gruden is criticizing him. Gruden stated he needs to see a lot more from Gabbert or he’d have to strongly consider drafting an additional quarterback subsequent year. This is a point we’ve been making lately.”
But he had absolutely nothing but high praise and admiration for him till he threw the late first half pick, as a 14-10 lead turned into a 24-14 halftime nightmare.
Still attempting to figure out why any individual is shocked by Gabbert.
Identical precise guy at Mizzou. Exact same horrific pocket presence.
How considerably are Jacksonville’s scouts finding paid?
depressing is correct, what has happened to the home team ever given that green bay won 38-35 at new york the home team has sucked
