Brian Thomas Jr. is certainly HIM

is that like saying "he's the guy?" 💀

That last segment was spot on. I’m happy we got a win and offense looked good, but until they rack up wins or losses I’m not changing my feeling of the management and certain players

[@jahrodegenah2324]

Him and fred taylor best draft picks ever made

[@victorvalentin2108]

Maurice Jones Drew was a pretty amazing also.

[@andrewthomas5916]

Wiggs has mentioned this before and I agree. Baalke has done some good things as GM. That said...I wholeheartedly believe he isn't the GM to take us to the next level.

[@waylonbeasley1477]

He has made some really good moves but he’s failed on the most important part of the job which is building up the Trenches. Saying that it looks like Ezra Cleveland and Mitch Morse might end up being good pick ups.

[@EdgarKutscher]

I totaly agree with u but the O line gave tlaw time to throw. The preasure wasnt there comin from indi. What will happen when huchinson goes for a sack? We will suck then again and thats our biggest problem in my eyes.... but for now lets celebrate the win

[@MdbEnt828]

Doug & Trent still need to go! We played the best ever & still damn near lost!!!

[@leevancleef358]

When we drafted BTJ I was 100% good with having BTJ over Calvin straight up...and now I am REALLY good with it...dude is LEGIT future Superstar.

I can't believe you said that nickname -- I totally texted "Sleepy Wonder" to my son some games ago. :)

[@JeffreyHampton-mr5ll]

Brian Thomas and tank are shining Kirk is always around , jaguars need one more receiver that's on Thomas level.

[@Aquarian2781]

They did get lucky. BTJ should have been a Top 10 pick, but the draft was so loaded. And there will be guys that just need a certain amount of time before they start to shine. I mean a lot of people were talking about Terrion Arnold, I think you also rated him highly and thought he could have been the guy. But that's neither here or there, Jags got it right.

[@railmanct]

Stay safe Wigg!

[@skipg73]

If Doug and Press can be creative in playcalling and stop being predictable no one needs to be fired. Baalke has done an impressive job building this roster the right way,that Brenton Strange pick was always a good pick in case we didnt resign Engram.

[@brianhutson2138]

A Ridley/Thomas Jr. duo would’ve been perfect … Gabe Davis can’t separate. Romeo Doubs would’ve been a much better option … Gabe should’ve been option#3 or so

[@sliver64209]

Def would have never picked BTJ in the draft if we kept Ridley and that would have hamstrung us way worst than Gabe Davis

[@BMoney77]

It’s early but he’s projected to get almost 3 times as many yards and TDs than Ridley.

[@casanovafrankenstein8538]

Ridley sorry

[@angelosmith797]

Can we add to our WR core by adding Adams? Or trade for Hassan Reddick to make our pass rush even better? Neither is a bad idea to me

[@sauce5343]

Balke still sucks

[@CedrickHolmes48]

Balke is Himmmm , you ment to say lol 😆

[@silentgrind34]

Exactly these podcast is wild…like give the dude fredit

[@jaym.g.5789]

Imagine if Ridley came back and the Jags "deep threat" is Gabe Davis

[@darendenson]

I may just be a homer but I believe most of the players team believes in are a hit. The ball just bounced the wrong way for a few weeks. I'll admit at 0 and 4 I had concerns.

[@bigcurtnumba9798]

Best receiver since Jimmy smith

[@avaris1280]

Baalke should be relieved of his duties regardless of how the rest of the season plays out. 0-4 start is an 0-4 start. And with the “best jags team of all time” too. if they’re so good why were they 0-4? He’s not the best man for the job period. And i think doug might not be the best man for the job either at this point. But that’s another thing 😂

[@silentgrind34]

What a weird ass comment
