Unlucky Wins

Like the Texans before them, I really hope the Jaguars take a dive against the Colts in week 17, leading their divisitonmates to a 3-13 season.

Should the Jaguars not win their week 17 matchup (Jaguars? Losing? Lunacy, I know.), both the Vikings and the Rams will have a chance to finish with shittier records than the streaking Colts.

St. Louis's remaining schedule is daunting, with two playoff-bound teams on the docket. The Vikings, however, have a date with Rex Grossman's Redskins this Sunday followed by a visit from the Jay Cutlerless, Matt Forteless, Chicago Bears to close out the season. In other words, if Minnesota wants to have a hand in the ongoing "Suck for Luck", they're going to have to outsuck the plummeting Chicago Bears. With Adrian Peterson returning to the lineup for the Vikings, it isn't a stretch to call the 2011 "Suck for Luck" a two horse race.

I'm a Bears fan, I've seen a baker's dozen quarterbacks come through town only to prove that they have as much business being on a football field as Jerry Angelo does sitting behind a "General Manager" nameplate. The last goddamn thing I want to see is some jackoff fanbase in the middle of Indifuckingana get gifted another incredibly talented quarterback just as Peyton Manning gets the professional athlete Old Yeller treatment.

So I ask you, Jaguars, to take a look at your hapless quarterback situation and decide that it's in your best interests to win in week 17. Is a 4-12 regular season that much worse than being the Colts' whipping boy for another decade?
