JACKSONVILLE – Let's get to it …

Dave from Jacksonville

KOAGF, thank you for taking us into this season. I have high expectations, as I still believe Trevor is special, however still growing into his frame. Tell us once and for all is it players, coaches, or scouting? Would you agree this is a unique situation to evaluate each? Year Three of a coach. Year Four of a general manager scouting. Can you think ever of a situation with a No. 1 overall quarterback, a No. 1 overall defensive end, a first-round running back, wide receiver, defensive end No. 2, middle linebacker and right guard – not to mention the starting second- and third-round picks. So, should we expect success? Is the Jaguars' success measured by victories or is defeat a voice of system failure? What says wizard? Let's have a great season.

Goodness gracious. Many, many questions – and many, many specifics. I don't know if there ever have been all those specific things on one team. I do know many teams have had early draft selections and I know many teams have looked very talented on paper entering seasons. I know many head coaches and general managers have been together for a while. Yes, fans should expect success from the Jaguars this season. Players, coaches and all others involved with this team expect success – and in the NFL, success is measured by winning. It starts with quarterback Trevor Lawrence continuing to develop. It continues with the offensive line and defensive line being stouter and more dependable than last season. It starts Sunday in Miami. And of course, it's coaching because it's always coaching in the NFL.

If rotating defensive linemen is the solution to world peace, why didn't we do it last year? Why don't all teams do it? How is our line talented and deep enough to do it now? How were we so fortunate enough to be blessed with talent and depth this year? Why aren't our depth players starting elsewhere for more money? How like is it we're overestimating our rotational talent on defensive line?

The Jaguars rotated defensive linemen last season. Pretty much all NFL teams rotate defensive linemen pretty much every season. The Jaguars appear likely to do it a bit more this season than they did last season.

Nick from Palm Coast, FL

So, when teams are willing to kick the ball through the end zone on kickoffs, the NFL needs to change it to the ball going to the 40-yard line to stop this.

Perhaps that will happen.

Jason from Jacksonville

The Jags mainly struggle at home and in primetime games. I'm feeling good about Sunday; on the road and at 1 p.m.

This is something of a short-sighted, specific generality, but you be you. Come to think of it, who else could you be?

Bradford from Orange Park, FL

Give it up for tight end Evan Engram, for sure. My thought on him coming from the New York Giants and catching fire here is, "Who would be a good fit in New York?" It isn't me ripping them to say, as it truly comes off as something they take pride in, that the city is infested with smash and grab, disloyal "journalists" and the spotlight on players there is turned up to "ridiculous." And where, all those who push it, the idea these franchises are just dripping with prestige comes from is lost on me. All credit due to them for it, but outside of Joe Namath, Tom Coughlin (and honorable mention to Eli Manning). I mean - what am I missing?

First: Journalists really can't be "disloyal" when it comes to covering sports. They owe loyalty to no team. Second: You're missing a knowledge of history, particularly when it comes to the Giants. Lawrence Taylor, perhaps the greatest defensive player in NFL history, played for the team. So did Sam Huff, one of the great linebackers in NFL history. So did multiple other great players. The Giants are one of the legacy franchises in NFL history. This doesn't mean it's not a difficult media market and it doesn't mean many players there get more scrutiny/praise than other players, but the Giants absolutely have prestige as an organization.

Rob from The duuuuuuh

I'm not sure what Jonathan was talking about. Jalen will go down as the best tackling and most physical corner of all time. It would not have hurt us so bad if he wasn't so good. I have no regrets because him leaving sped a collapse that led us to the No. 1 pick and the Prince that was Promised. It would suck to still have Jalen and be in quarterback purgatory. One fer Jalen climbing brokeback mountain in LA and landing us Trevor who will take us to the promised land. That broke back and big mouth leaving was the best thing that ever happened to us. PS: Ramsey wasn't very nice to Jacksonville so the rule doesn't apply to him. Bullies get bullied.

Former Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey and Miami Dolphins cornerback is a high-caliber player. This is pretty inarguable. Anyone who thinks he is the best-tackling, most physical corner of all-time never saw Rod Woodson or Mel Blount play. I hope someday Jaguars fans as a whole can look back and remember the positives and negatives of Ramsey's time here and enjoy a bunch of decent memories. My sense is that's possible for some and not for others.

Paul from Newbridge on Wye

Is Louis Rees-Zammit going to get a game this season, or is he just there to learn for next year's draft?

I would be a little surprised if Louis Rees-Zammit plays in a regular-season game this season. He currently is the Jaguars' International Pathway Program player and on the practice squad, which more often than not is a developmental position.

Scott from Atlantic Beach, FL

I watched Thursday night and Friday night, lots of yellow flags. Maybe no team can play clean Week One. I think if the Jags minimize the penalties, which I'm sure is always the goal but especially this week, it could be the advantage that leads them to victory. The other aspects of playing clean, no mental errors, making the plays that are there, very important too. But just after seeing so many flags, I'm really hoping the Jags can keep the penalty yardage to less than forty that they will win the game! Go Jags!!!!

One fer few flags.

Andrew from Lindale

No question, just a thought. I'm betting Jalen Ramsey's new salary helps to heal that "hamstring issue" he's been dealing with.

We've been over this. It's important here in the O-Zone to be nice. This is not nice. It's understandable and not unfunny, but it's not nice.

Rick from Franconia, VA

O, I 100 percent agree with Bill from Bostwick. If this website posts erroneous information regarding players and they either don't know or don't care enough to go get the correct information that is 100 percent the fault of the website. I find it rather amazing your position seems to be "it's not our fault our website is wrong."

Life is full of amazing occurrences. And sometimes you just don't quite understand something even when you think you do. Sometimes you're just, plain befuddled. This is one of the things that's awesome about being alive and one of the things that makes it so much better than the alternative.

Mario from West Kelowna, BC

Mr. Zone! Jags season is about to get started. What are your expectations for this season? Who will come out on top? Players or plays? Will it still be (always and forever) be coaching issues if things go south this season? Will 4-3 bring our D back to life after thinking for years that 3-4 was the solution? Just like you I really don't care! Go Jags!

Coaching will be blamed if things go poorly this season. If the defense improves, I'm sure we'll talk of scheme change being a reason. I do think the scheme could particularly help defensive end Travon Walker. If that happens, then it will have been a positive change.

Greg from Section 122, Jacksonville

NFL Network, ESPN and most of the other predictive reports give us no chance in this game. The thinking is Miami's offense is like Kansas City and just too strong. Does our offense get no respect because it is so many new pieces? I mean I suppose we have to start over reputation wise after the melt down last year.

I don't know why NFL Network, ESPN and most other predictive reports do what they do. I assume it's because the Dolphins made the postseason last season and the Jaguars did not. It's not that I couldn't give more theories about this topic. It's just that I care not a bit what experts and analysts who aren't around this team daily say on these matters.
