I just wanted to voice this out and something I think was sad and see if anyone else noticed it as well. Jax is a good team with good players like MJD, Gerrard, Sims Walker, Holt, Mercades Lewis (sp) and so on. They are also in playoff contention and if they beat us yesterday..they were in and we would pretty much be done. Not to mention Braggin' Rights in FLA!

My point? IT WAS A HUGE GAME.

And for all of that, the crowd buzz and electricy was nowhere to be found. I mean the second and third offensive drives we drove right down the field, facing third downs, 2 and 3rd and goals and it was silent. I even thought to myself "Man the phish look so unmotivated, but hey they are driving down the field, so..." It was just weird. Did anyone else think or notice that as well.

I'm thinking that with an LA group looking to re-locate a current team, that the State of FLA might lose the Jags. I just think that's Sad.

Oh Well. I hope that never happens to us.
 
**** the Jacksonville fans. I wish the Dolphins played 2 minutes from where I live but they don't. Those people are lucky and if they lose the team, to hell with them.
 
LA doesn't care about football. You will hear the same silence if they get the jags
 
I thought the fans were pretty good considering that not a whole lot showed up. When the Jags were threatening us at the end there they were getting loud. When Henne was picked off, they were loud. Pretty impressive considering there were thousands of empty seats.
 
Yea that stadium was empty in the lower middle . . . funny, because I was at the 35 yardline in the upper section and I had a GREAT view.

It was loud up there, full of Dolphin fans . . . Jag fans did there thing to, it actually was better than I expected.

I read somewhere that they had the biggest attendance of the year for this game, 60 thousand and some change.
 
The dolphin players looked pretty damn well-motivated during that game, specially the way they were driving down the jags throats on several drives. We just got unlucky with the fumbles and stuff but we looked like we were dominating for the most part.
 
If I were the commish, I would definately move the Jaguars out of town. Although I can't stand the Bills fans and would not lose any sleep over them losing their team, I think it is a complete embarassment to keep the Jags in that city. The Jags haven't sould out a game ALL YEAR, including yesterday's game that matters the most. I think I heard the Thursday night game against the Colts is sold out, but it's too late for that.

That is correct. it was 60 thousand tickets sold, and 57 thousand actually through the gates. There were a few Fins fans over where I was, and we were making some noise.

I think overall, the atmosphere was just....chill. There was more smack talk in the parking lots before the game then actually in the stadium. Of course, the drunk chick flashing the crowd while standing on the jaguar statue after the game did get quite a reaction from the fans (Thank you whoever and where ever you are)

How is that sad? No Jacksonville team could mean more Dolphin fans filling up our staduim.
 
The LA stadium is being built less than 3 miles from my house... Los Angeles Jaguars are on their way.

I was thinking more in line of the players. How would you like to come out and play games infront of empty seats each week?

I thought that the dolphins fans were susposed to have showed up but judging by the media not many dolphin fans showed up . Din the fin fans show up in good numbers ?
