Coach Cotignola is a much happier man this Sunday evening than he was last week. His Jaguars played a much better game than their previous outing, but he admits they still have a long way to go.

"The defense really set the tempo for the game, especially with the turnovers. It was like a boxing match; we'd hit 'em, they'd swing but BAM! we'd counter with a shot before they knew what hit them. I'm really proud of the guys. In regards to the Marshawn Lynch TD run, that was on me. My bad. We had them pinned and I went all in on it. Marshawn's a great, powerful runner and he got us on that one."

Offensively, Fred Taylor's hard running helped lead the offense; while Tuiasosopo played efficient, error free football. Coach was quick to give a little praise to rookie running back Cory Boyd, suiting up this week in place of Adrian Peterson. The run game was pretty average till Cory came in for two series. (7 carries for 46 yards.)

Coach Cotignola did express his frustration with some of his receiver's lack of focus on several dropped passes though. "I might have to take a look at the guys I have and shake things up a bit, where they line up, which routes they run, that kind of thing. They're all really talented players, I just have to get them in the right places at the right times. Whether that's the X, the Z, the unemployment line... (laughs)"

One HUGE factor in the game was the difference in the number and severity of injuries compared to last week. RG George Foster was knocked from the game, and is expected to miss 4 or 5 weeks with a stress factor. TE Kemba Osby will miss one day to deal with a laceration on his hand, and RE Robert Henderson will take a day off to deal with a sore chest. Otherwise, the team got off pretty healthy and it showed. Much nicer than the 8 guys or whatever that got knocked out last week.

Fred Taylor won AFC Player of the Week!

Up next is a divisional battle with the Indianapolis Colts. Led by Peyton Manning, the Colts are one of the Super Bowl favorites. Last year the Colts swept the Jaguars, and they look even more formidable this year with the additions of rookies Sedrick Ellis (starting DT), Clifford Avril (starting ROLB), and Zach Bowman (nickel corner)

Due to injuries to Gilberry (1 wk) and Reggie Hayward (1 week) we're suddenly thin at DE. We've got the rookie Henderson there to back up Brayton; and Roderick Green picked up a sack last week and can start on the other side till Gilberry is back. DT Derek Landri and OLB Dan Cody will also provide depth at DE, as we think they can do a great job - and there's no rush to sign a guy off the street for one week.
