LUKE MCCOWN RUMORS & GOSSIP

Why couldn't you just do what I outlined? Source: Bleacherreport Back in September after the victory over the Tennessee Titans, I wrote an article about Luke McCown’s seven yards per attempt.  I outlined how it can alleviate some pressure placed on Maurice Jones-Drew (turns out he didn’t need it) and the running game and open up some plays down field.  I also made...

22-year old rookie QB Blaine Gabbert replaced Luke McCown after the first two games and he struggled.  The Jaguars were 4-10 (28.6%) with Gabbert at QB in 2011.  He played in 15 games (14 starts) for the Jaguars last year and he completed 210 of 413 passes (50.8%) for 2,214 yards with 12 TD passes and 11 INTs (65.4 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 48 times for 98 yards (2...

Head coach Jack Del Rio noted that Jacksonville will be sticking with rookie Blaine Gabbert at quarterback. Fantasy Spin: An ineffective Gabbert was benched in favor of Luke McCown in Sundays loss to Houston, but there is no benefit to sticking with the below average McCown, and Gabbert will continue to gain valuable on-field experience for Week 13 vs. San Diego. Gabbert should continue...

The Jaguars wasted a great effort from the defense today.  The Texans sacked Jaguars’ QBs a stunning 7 times today and it really hurt the offense.  Blaine Gabbert had a rough time today as he completed 13 of 29 passes for 136 yards with 0 TD passes and 1 INT.  He was then benched in favor of Luke McCown.  McCown completed 7 of 11 passes for 62 yards without a TD pass or...

Luke McCown immediately added life to a dormant Jaguars offense when he replaced Blaine Gabbert in the fourth quarter on Sunday. And now he’ll go right back to the bench. Jack Del Rio announced after Sunday’s loss that Gabbert will remain the starter. “Offensively, we just are struggling to generate enough productivity to have any…

Luke McCown threw two passes for the Jaguars on Sunday, and they both fell incomplete.  His quarterback rating was still higher than Blaine Gabbert’s by the end of the day. Gabbert’s numbers and overall play have been regressing, and Gabbert didn’t start off too well in the first place. The brief feeling that the Jaguars…

On this day in 2000 Louisiana Tech quarterback Luke McCown set an NCAA freshman record with 72 passing attempts and 80 total plays as the Bulldogs fell at No. 2 Miami, 42-31. McCown completed 42-of-72 passes for 418 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions and also rushed eight times for 26 yards and a score, but Hurricanes running back James Jackson rushed 26 times for...
