The Silver Lining

MJD rushing leader

Maurice Jones Drew is the NFL rushing leader for 2011. In the Final game of the season, Jones Drew wrapped up the title of rushing leader as well as becoming the Jaguars All-Time rushing leader, surpassing the great Fred Taylor. It is a bitter sweet award seeing as how the Jaguars have just 5 wins in 2011 and will not be in the playoffs. Jones Drew is also the sole Jaguar voted to the Pro Bowl this year. Hopefully the Jaguars will make some serious noise in the draft & free agency this off season. This team will be better next season for sure. QB Blaine Gabbert will improve. TE Lewis will get back into form. I can't see another year filled with so many players ending up on the IR again. Depth will be added to the O-line & the Jaguars have to get better WRs thru the draft or free agency. Look for the CB position to be addressed as well. Congratulations to MJD on his amazing 2011 season, you made us proud to say we're Jaguars fans. Go Jags!
