Time to Hit The NFL Panic Button in Jacksonville

It is time to hit the panic button in Jacksonville. The Jaguars are a hot mess following Monday night's embarrassing 47-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Head coach Doug Pederson, who once won a Super Bowl with quarterback Nick Foles and the Eagles, says there have to be changes after an 0-3 start and that may include starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence. At this point "everything is on the table" according to Pederson.

Since the Jags first half in the season's opening game vs the Dolphins, they have managed only 23 points. And they have only converted 5 of 27 third down opportunities. At times, when Lawrence throws the ball one has to wonder where he is attempting to put it. He is completing a woeful 48 percent of his passes and has one touchdown.

Here is why it is time to hit the panic button in Jacksonville because the news gets worse. The Jags have lost 8 straight games Lawrence has started dating back to last year's collapse. In fact, for those who like math, Lawrence hasn't won a start in over 300 days.

Lawrence seems to be wilting under the pressure of his new 5 year contract extension which will pay him $55 million dollars a year. That figure ties Joe Burrow as the highest paid annual salary in the NFL.

The good news for Lawrence and the Jaguars is they have some "winnable" games coming up. Their schedule is @Texans, Colts (who never win in Jacksonville) and Patriots.

For all the latest NFL talk tune in each weekday from 2-6pm to Craig Shemon and Company on ESPN Southwest Florida.

Some days it's hard to get going. In addition, once you get going, it can be hard to keep going. We could all use a little encouragement from time to time. If that is you, here are 5 motivational videos to keep you going today.

It's TikTok Tuesday and one of the things I like on this social media platform is the number of inspirational and motivational videos. Some show people doing amazing things. Others show jaw dropping scenes from nature with quotes that together make you exhale.

They make you feel a little better. Even if it's only for a few minutes. I'll take it.

Another thing I like about some of these videos is the perspective they give. When we are in the middle of a stressful or trying situation, sometimes it is hard to see anything else. The words below won't solve all of your problems or dilemmas. However, they might just help you look at things through a different lens.

All of these videos are office and kid friendly. You can turn up the volume. It's good to hear the words, not just read them.

If you don't have a TikTok account, don't worry. I've made it easy to view the videos by taking these links from mine. Simply scroll down and watch from this post. Share with friends who could also use a boost today.

This is a gorgeous video. And the message is a good one about your thoughts. It is one of those that makes you dream a little too

First, I love the beach. Beach scenes alone are enough to make me feel better at times. Then add simple words and ideas like this video does and it is a home run in my opinion.

If you are feeling bad about yourself, this a good reminder of who you really are. Listen to it over and over and try not to forget it. Don't let others make you feel any different. 

Just in case you are having challenges with relationships, this a good one. Again, some of these words are so simple. It's not always easy but this is more good stuff. 

This one is a good message about perspective. With a few doses of wisdom sprinkled in.
