4-0 and 0-4

[#17 Admin]

So the Seahawks, Chiefs, Patriots and Broncos are all 4-0 going into week 5. It's hard to separate the teams. Early days it may be but The Seahawks have proven the doubters wrong that they can win on the road. The Chiefs are looking solid on all three phases of the game. The Patriots are doing it without Gronkowski. It also seems that they are not firing on all 4 cylinders yet. The Broncos are just simply scoring for fun. Right now it seems hard to see beyond their awesome offensive line lead by Peyton Manning.

On the other side of the coin The Steelers, Giants, Buccaneers and Jaguars are all 0-4. The first two respectively are a big surprise but have the tools to turn it around. It's looking like it will be a long season for the Jaguars. Things may improve for Tampa as they switch their starting QB from Josh Freeman to Sean Glennon.

Bring on week 5.

As much as it kills me to say it..........the Jags are by far the worst 0 and 4 side from those listed. And with the games they have coming up we could quite easily end up 0 - 8.

MJD leaves after this year so we will lose his creativity and ability to snatch yards; Blaine Gabbert needs replacing - and quickly. His completion percentage is averaging in the low 50% mark and that just isn't good enough especially when you're as interception prone as he seems to be.
I know that you sometimes have to go for the long percentage throw when things are tough but "COME ON!!" If he's not going to be replaced then he needs to be given more protection and this might give him the time he needs to get off his throw.
Add to this the great news that Marcedes Lewis was back on the starting line-up only to get injured in the first quarter. It looks like it's going to be a tough year for the Jags.

Bring on Bye week - at least then I won't be afraid to look at the scores.
