[Andy Hicks]

Welcome to the opening week for 2010.

Please try and help those who aren't watching by describing events and developments.

If someone is getting lots of targets, let everyone know

If someone has barely been on the field etc.

 

[Courtjester]

Denver looking very crisp this first drive.

Tebow has been in for two plays--once as a ball carrier--1 yard rush and once lined up as a WR.

 

[Courtjester]

Drive stalled and Denver has to punt.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Tackling the quarterback in the backfield? Is that allowed?

 

[cdwood]

Sack by Jags killed the drive, Broncos punted.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Mike Thomas beats Champ Bailey for a big first down.

 

[tim_whatley]

Did I see MSW get dinged up on the first play?

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Jaguars stall after holding call. Punt puts Denver inside their 15.

 

[cdwood]

Rashad Jennings in on 2 plays after MJD ran for 10 yards but play called back by holding penalty. Jags move from 8 to 38 then punt.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Mathis drops an interception of a 3rd down pass intended for Gafney. Broncos punt to about 27.

 

[tim_whatley]

Did I see MSW get dinged up on the first play?

Anyone?

 

[cdwood]

Did I see MSW get dinged up on the first play?

Anyone?

He's out there but hasn't been targeted since then.

 

[cdwood]

Kasim Osgood on special teams keeps Jags punt from being a touchback, Broncos start drive on 3 yard line.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Ayers sacks Garrard on 2nd down. Inc on 3rd, Jax punt downed by Osgood inside 5. Gafney catch for first down.

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Did I see MSW get dinged up on the first play?

Anyone?

He's out there but hasn't been targeted since then.

He did get up gingerly after the first play.

 

[Courtjester]

I don't like the Tebow running plays at all. The team is just getting some rhythm on offense and it just ruins the flow.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

A lot of passes going Royal's way. First down in Jags territory.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Kampmann looks to be 100%.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

TO Denver as they are about to go for 4th and 1

 

[cdwood]

Buckhalter fumble kills long Broncos drive.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Buchhalter fumbles, Jags recovered.

Courtney Greene appears to have replaced Considine at safety.

 

[Courtjester]

And the punt-fest continues....

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Tyson Alualu 1st NFL sack.

 

[cdwood]

Tyson Alualu gets first career sack against Orton on 3rd and 10.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

21 yd TD to Marcedes Lewis. Lewis goes up and over into EZ.

 

[cdwood]

Gerrard 21 yard pass to Marcedes Lewis for TD. MSW provides a block on the goal line to allow Lewis to score.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Kampmann looks to be 100%.

Updating this... Kapmann has actually played limited snaps but been active when he's been on.Considine back in, now at FS. Immediately gives up two big passes in cover 2.

 

[Courtjester]

Orton is looking very sharp and showing some nice accuracy on the long ball.

 

[Courtjester]

8 yard TD Gaffney!!

 

[cdwood]

Orton to Gaffney for 8 yard TD. Cox had fallen down on the play, Gaffney wide open.

 

[basher]

How has Moreno looked?

 

[Courtjester]

How has Moreno looked?

He is running strong--actually staying on his feet, but the Broncos are platooning him in and out with Buckhalter.

 

[cdwood]

Halftime, 7-7 tie. Both teams scoring in last 2 minutes of the first half.

 

[hoopvillian]

How has Moreno looked?

I dunno if he was even in for that last drive... I keep hearing them say Buckhalter.

 

[cdwood]

How has Moreno looked?

He is running strong--actually staying on his feet, but the Broncos are platooning him in and out with Buckhalter.

On the scoring play, Buckhalter was the lone back split out to the left of Orton and went out into a pass route.

 

[cdwood]

Gerrard to Lewis for 10 yard TD. Lewis over the top of Bly. It was the first pass of the drive after Jags ran 6-7 consecutive runs to start the 2nd half. Looks like Jags want to pound the Broncos in the heat.

 

[biggamer3]

Is MSW even getting any passed towards him?

 

[cdwood]

Is MSW even getting any passed towards him?

Not really, no targets since early in 1st quarter. Thomas at least 3 catches, Lewis 2 targets in the redone for 2 TDs.

 

[cdwood]

Orton sacked for 3rd time on 3rd and 7.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Kampmann got that last sack, his second.

MSW got a target (incomplete)

 

[cdwood]

MSW was running a short crossing route and Bailey was all over him, would have been a 4-5 yard gain.

 

[cdwood]

MJD stopped short on 4th and inches at Jags 40 yard line.

 

[cdwood]

Moreno a 1 yard TD run on 2nd and goal after being stopped on 1st and goal from the 1 yard line. Play set up by bad pass interference call at the one. Orton's pass was 2-3 yards behind Gaffney.

 

[lyon812]

Seriously, don't know why people have been dismissing Mike Thomas.

 

[cdwood]

Scobee kicks a 45 yard field goal, Jags lead 17-14.

 

[cdwood]

Seriously, don't know why people have been dismissing Mike Thomas.

He's seen as the WR2 on a run first team.

 

[Courtjester]

Should be an interesting 4th quarter with the rain and wind on the way.....

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Should be an interesting 4th quarter with the rain and wind on the way.....

Your guys get the wind at their backs (sort of) for the 4thOf course it could be the typical Florida storm for 15 minutes and then turn into a steam bath.

Hopefully it affects Orton's accuracy, he's been dissecting the Jags secondary. Game is now in a weather delay for lightning. During the preseason the Jags had a game delayed for over an hour for the same.

 

[Courtjester]

So Jax fans, what's up with those middle 50 yard seats? It is like the stands between the 40's in the lower bowl are empty and those would be the best seats in the house. Are they just over priced?
