Having high expectations for the Jaguars in July is a yearly ritual for some. Others usually laugh at these blind optimists, and usually for good reason. But this year? Expectations are a go.
"The Jacksonville Jaguars will win the AFC South."
This kind of thinking used to get you mocked to the end of the Internet. And rightfully so.
In 2016, however, it doesn't sound nearly as crazy as it once did. Is it finally safe to have expectations for the Jaguars? Expectations that do not include draft talk in October? Yes.
There are still many in the "show me" camp, and no one can blame them.
