Jacksonville Jaguars (2011 record: 5-11)
What went wrong?: Jacksonville lost the final three games of the 2010 season, breaking even at 8-8, and missing the postseason. Lamentably, had the Jags beaten Indianapolis in Week 15, Jacksonville would have won the AFC South outright. Instead, the Jaguars lost 34-24, and the team from North Florida would lose out, while Indy won out.
At age 32, quarterback David Garrard had strung together one of his finest seasons. In fourteen games, Garrard posted a 64.5% completion percentage, with 23 touchdowns and a slightly unhealthy 15 interceptions. In fact, in the loss to the Colts, as well as the overtime loss a week later to Washington, Garrard put up quality numbers. It was the running game that failed Jacksonville, capped off by Maurice Jones-Drew injuring his knee against Indianapolis. He would miss his first game since 2007 the following week, an unfortunate occurrence that helped doom their playoff hopes.

// >

Scobee is obviously frustrated, the team is not in dire financial straits, and there is still a good amount of time until July 16th, which is when long term contracts can no longer be negotiated for franchise tagged players.

A great moment at Everbank Field in 2007
This may be my favorite series of event in the history of football. By my count, the Raiders had 4 unsportsmanlike conduct penalties called after one play. Hat tip to this Big Cat Country article for making me search for the video on Youtube. The best part is that David Garrard threw an INT immediately after the penalites.
Open QB competitions don't exist
There are a number of teams this offseason that have declared their quarterback position to be up for grabs. The Dolphins, Browns, Seahawks, and Titans have highly contested battles at the position, and those teams would like their quarterbacks to believe that each of them has a shot at landing the starting job. Sorry guys. I'm not buying the "open competition" rhetoric...
