    To those who said...

    ...that the season was over after the Jags loss. What are your thoughts now that we are sitting atop the AFC? Dominating performance today by our defense. Offense left some points out there, but you won't get any complaints from this guy.

    The Jaguars game was Ben having a complete meltdown that will likely never be seen again.

    That said, Le'Veon Bell pretty much earned his money this upcoming offseason.

    Team woke up after the Jags game. I hope fans see what Bell does for this team. His impact is unmatched.

    He is worth the money.

    Team MVP for a reason. He's the glue that holds everything together.

    That a perfect description for Bell. This offense runs through him.

    Tag him again or get a deal done! Just think if we drafted Hunt too.

    It certainly does. And I wish it would run through him more on third and one.

    Did the team wake up or are they just “game shape”? Still would like to see more out of the offense. Less FGs and more TDs.

    The injury bug hasn't affected us too much at this point. However, I've said it before and I'll say it again, 30 needs more touches. With the heavy workload Bell has been getting on a weekly basis, it has me nervous. They can't run the wheels off of the best player on this football team. We need him healthy if we want to make a deep run. Conner has done well with his chances. I don't understand why he hasn't been utilized more.

    Has yet to finish a season. He's not worth $18,000,000+ a season.

    No RB is worth $18,000,000+ a year. Breaking the bank for 1 RB is not a wise decision

    He would have been the highest paid RB in the league. More than fair for a RB (particularly one who hasn't started and finished a season regardless of talent).

    Maybe... maybe not.

    But, my point is that $18 million is not the same as $12 million. It’s a difference of $6 million.

    I’m pretty sure I read even a single post that said the season was over after that game.

    I hope they learn from this season and use the pre season to actually get into game shape. The NFL in general is a waste of time for the first 4 games. Pre season 2.0. The good that came out of our pre season are Hilton and Watson. The bad? Our offense is still trying to get into sync. Bell's holdout also contributes because he was rusty for the first 4 games. The arrow is definitely pointing up again.

    Bell wanted more guaranteed money(only 2 years were), only reason he didn't sign a LT deal.

    All of that said, and I love Bell, but I don't think he does, what he does, nearly as well behind a different line.

    The Jaguars game?.....this board was mostly negative after the Ravens game where the Steelers won.

    When fans are calling the season over in September, I just tune them out as I am trying to enjoy a football season for the next 4 months.
