Kuharsky: Gabbert the only one who knew what was happening

The Jaguars rather sloppy ending to Sunday’s game against the Panthers is getting a bit of attention. Not only is the criticism coming from local media, but a few national outlets are chiming in as well. Following the confirmation of Marcedes Lewis’ catch, the clock began to run at 16 seconds. Gabbert immediately rushed his teammates to the line and sat back in the shotgun. Then he called... 

Offensive woes, coaching plague Jaguars; Panthers win 16-10

JACKSONVILLE — Someone needs to let Jaguars Head Coach Jack Del Rio and Offensive Coordinator know a two-point lead isn’t quite sizable enough to squat on. We highlighted getting off to a fast start as a key to victory for the Jaguars against the Panthers this week. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. The game started eerily similar to week two’s bashing at the hands of the... 

Jaguars vs. Panthers scorecard

JACKSONVILLE — Blaine Gabbert’s first NFL start didn’t go too bad, but in the end, the Jaguars weren’t able to make enough plays to beat the Panthers. An ultra-conservative game plan that led to 22 of 24 plays at one point being runs in the second half, and the coaching staff’s insistence on sitting on a two-point lead, were largely to blame. Here’s how the Jaguars... 

Gabbert vs. Newton: Nine things to beat the Panthers

JACKSONVILLE — The not-so-surprising announcement that Blaine Gabbert would take over for the ineffective Luke McCown came just in time. The Jaguars, of course, are squaring off against Carolina Panthers this weekend, led by none other than Cam Newton, the rookie sensation the club drafted nine spots ahead of Gabbert at number one overall. The Panthers were high on Gabbert, and according to a... 

Quarterback carousel puts Jack Del Rio on life support

JACKSONVILLE — Jaguars Head Coach Jack Del Rio’s job security, considered to be shaky at best prior to the start of the regular season, just went on life support. Jaguars owner Wayne Weaver has been much more patient with Del Rio than he was with the franchise’s first coach, Tom Coughlin, who went on to win a Super Bowl with the Giants after being fired. And Coughlin actually had... 

Sunshine time: the Jaguars Blaine Gabbert era begins

JACKSONVILLE — We speculated yesterday that Blaine Gabbert would get the nod Sunday against the Panthers. Late in the evening Alfie Crow of Big Cat Country reported Gabbert would indeed start, after Head Coach Jack Del Rio claimed he “knew” who his starter would be on his local radio show. The decision was easy, really. Whether Gabbert is ready or not, Luke McCown forced the issue. Gabbert... 

Del Rio ‘knows’ who he will start Sunday

Blaine Gabbert heads to the Jaguars practice field JACKSONVILLE — Jaguars head coach Jack Del Rio has already made his decision regarding who will start Sunday at quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Per his weekly radio show on WOKV-Jacksonville, however, Del Rio will not yet disclose his starter to provide a “competitive advantage.” It sounds like Del Rio hasn’t really... 

Jaguars shuffle receiving corp

JACKSONVILLE — Preseason sensation Jamar Newsome, one of three undrafted rookies to make the Jaguars’ 53-man roster, was waived this afternoon to make room for newly signed Chastin West. West spent the 2010 season on the Packers’ practice squad. After a strong performance this preseason, including a 97-yard touchdown catch, West again failed to make the club’s final roster,...
