Fred Taylor..... (1 Viewer)

The Jaguars have some maturity issues to deal with. Not only did receiver Reggie Williams get popped this week for a having marijuana in his car during a traffic stop, but sources indicated that several players hit the town hard last week in Providence, R.I., the night before their playoff game with the New England Patriots. The word is a limo was involved and players had a big time, pushing the curfew envelope. Jack Del Rio has always treated his players as men -- which is something we like -- but this team might need to be reeled in a bit. There is talent on this team, but it might be going to waste if the want to win isn't strong enough to keep players in their rooms the night before the team's first playoff game since 1999. Del Rio is pushing for a contract extension -- which he should get -- but these latest instances of off-field problems can't be making owner Wayne Weaver too happy. Del Rio might not get the money he wants, but could be forced to take some incentive-laden deal. One more thing about the Jaguars: Don't be shocked to see Fred Taylor playing somewhere else next season. This coaching staff has never warmed to Taylor and there is talk of friction stemming from Taylor's injury troubles. They don't think he's tough enough. If Taylor were let go, the perfect landing spot for him would be Indianapolis. The Colts probably won't bring back Edgerrin James and Taylor would be a cheaper alternative. Taylor would go to his first Pro Bowl if he wound up playing in that wide-open Colts offense.
