thats why the NFL is great. any given sunday. the belief that any team on an "on" day is better than any team on an "off" day.

while you're right Jax looks super tough, i would honestly just be happy to see this team play to their potential even if its during a squeaker loss.

OK, you lost me there. You can rationalize a loss as a "step forward" because of good play, but for a team that's not the 49ers, Texans, or Raiders, you shouldn't be content with a loss.

in the grand scheme of a season, they're have been plenty of times when a loss has meant more to a team than a win etc. don't get me wrong, i'm never 'content' with a loss, but seeing this year's team click on all cylinders and find its identity means everything to the season, and it can happen in a win or a loss.
