    James Johnson and Phil Barrera bring you the best and most up to date Jacksonville Jaguars news. "Touchdown Jaguars!" is a tribute to the prospective ownership group "Touchdown Jacksonville!" In 1991, the NFL announced plans to add two expansion teams and "Touchdown Jacksonville!" announced its bid for a team, and Jacksonville was ultimately chosen as one of five finalists. In November 1993, the NFL owners voted 26–2 in favor of awarding the 30th franchise to Jacksonville. James and Phil have been fans of the franchise ever since and have had the honor (and sometimes dishonor) of covering the team professionally since 2017. The rest as they say, is history.

In a pivotal segment, we lay out the challenges faced by Trevor Lawrence and the offense, scrutinizing the underperformance and strategic pitfalls that have kept fans on edge. The stadium's electric vibe may have dimmed, but the spirit of Jaguars' football is still alive, if only the team can harness it in time. Join us for an unfiltered discussion on the plays, the players, and the palpable tension surrounding the playoffs.

    Amidst the on-field battles, injuries have taken their toll, with key players like Trevor Lawrence and Zay Jones possibly sidelined, testing the Jaguars' depth and resilience. We're diving into the ripple effects of these injuries and how they've reshaped team dynamics. Touching on the bright spots, like Josh Allen's impressive pass rush, we ponder the necessary changes to reinforce the squad. Our conversation goes beyond the field to the front office, critiquing the decisions that have shaped the current roster and strategizing how to surround Lawrence with a winning team.

    Looking to the future, we consider what's on the horizon for the Jaguars in terms of draft picks and acquisitions.

  • Episode 73: Bengals/Jaguars Week 13 Analysis: Jags miss a grand opportunity

    Send us Fan Mail

    Monday Night Football returned to the city of Jacksonville for the first time since 2011, but it ended up being a night that Jags fans would rather forget. Not only did the team lose by a score of 34-31, but they also gave the fanbase a scare as Trevor Lawrence sustained an ankle injury that ended up being better than expected.

    Im this week's episode of "Touchdown Jaguars!", Jay broke down Lawrence's injury situation and the other injuries that the Jags  exited MNF with. While Lawrence avoided a catastrophe, receiver Christian Kirk wasn't as lucky and it appears the Jags will need some young players to step up for him and some others like Tre Herndon.

    When it comes to the game itself, Jay broke down the biggest issue with the Jags' defense, which gave up almost 500 yards to Jake Browning and Co. Then on the offensive end, he discussed the offensive line and why drastic changes need to be made there if the team is to have a chance at becoming elite.
