First\u2026 are you comfortable with Ewers as the backup quarterback? I\u2019m only half joking. It\u2019s nice to know that Jacksonville was looking around the league for different options, but I\u2019m not sure if Ewers is actually much of an upgrade over Mullens at all. As the younger player by eight years, I suppose he offers more long-term potential, but I can\u2019t say Ewers would make me feel any better if Trevor Lawrence were injured.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">And secondly, what the heck should we do with this newfound power? If next week\u2019s survey asks, \u201cAre you confident in the progress of the Stadium of the Future?\u201d will construction suddenly quicken?<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans if they\u2019re comfortable with Nick Mullens as the backup quarterback.
