Do Jags fans remember offensive tackle Mike Williams? The former 1st rd pick spent the 2006 season with the Jags but never played in a game.

Hi, everybody, and welcome to the press box at "The Jack" for tonight's 2009 preseason finale against the Washington Redskins. This is a game we might remember as the official start of the Jaguars' youth movement. Welcome aboard.

This weekend's theme is change. You can feel it in the air. The Jaguars are in a youth movement and several young players can shoot up the depth chart with a strong performance tonight. Among those, I would include the team's first six draft picks: Eugene Monroe, Eben Britton, Terrance Knighton, Derek Cox, Mike Thomas and Jarett Dillard.

Garrard throws to Troy Williamson for a first down on third down. Williamson continues to catch the ball.

Garrard throws a quick sideline pass to Mike Thomas for four yards. That's Thomas' play.
Vic Ketchman

Thomas on an end around for a first down. That looked real good. By the way, Tony Pashos had a nice block on the Jones-Drew draw play.

Field goal time. It's a chip shot. It's good.

Touchdown Jaguars! Tyron Brackenridge made a huge hit in kickoff coverage, the ball was fumbled and recovered by Tiquan Underwood at the three-yard line and run into the end zone.
Vic Ketchman

7:52 PM
Brackenridge may have had the best combination OTAs/training camp/preseason of anybody on the team. I haven't seen him have a bad day since the Jaguars acquired him.

The Jaguars are playing their number one defense. Jack Del Rio has his team up for this game.

Jones-Drew has a leg contusion and his return is questionable.

Pass interference against the Redskins nullifies a big play that had carried to the 11-yard line.
Vic Ketchman
8:05 PM
Vic Ketchman
8:10 PM
Monroe struggled a little bit with Brian Orakpo on that series. Adam Podlesh boots a beauty. Jeremy Cain was the snapper. Chase Daniel is the quarterback.

Another drop by the Redskins.

Scobee kicks it out of the end zone. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe the Jaguars are going to the Super Bowl.

Tim Shaw just nailed the running back.
Vic Ketchman

Vic Ketchman
8:39 PM
Garrard is 10 of 13 for 95 yards, one touchdown and a 122.3 passer rating. That 's a great way to finish the preseason. Bring on the Colts.

That's Sims-Walker's second catch. I think we can say he's made the team.
Vic Ketchman

Vic Ketchman

Diving catch by Sims-Walker. This is the best I've seen him play. He looks quick and confident.

Everything Jack Del Rio wanted to happen in this game tonight has happened. He couldn't ask for a better performance to take into final-cut decisions.
Vic Ketchman

Incomplete in the end zone on the final play of the first half. The Jags opted not to kick a field goal.

Nice, hard run by Chauncey Washington. That'll make a statement. Better yet, it keeps the clock running.

Uche Nwaneri was not having a great night until that play. He got out in front of the screen receiver and crushed his guy.

Remember, you can't sign a guy to your practice squad until after he's cleared waivers.

I will be bailing out early tonight. These players are going to fly out of here after the game.

This is one of those moments that needs to be absorbed. I'm looking down at Joe Z standing at the end of the bench area. He has to know. This is the wonderful pain that makes the game what it is. The hurt lets us know we're alive.

The Jaguars are running out the clock and I'm going to run out of the press box. Thank you for joining me this preseason and I look forward to the season of exciting football ahead.
