3. Hello Darkness My Old Friend
“Every once in a while I feel melancholy and contemplative. I turn off my phone, pour a whiskey, and put on my old Gabbert jersey,” wrote one Jaguars fan. “Then I just sit there. In the quiet. I think of every mistake I made in my life, like paying full price for a Gabbert jersey. I’ll go to bed sad and let a deep sleep take over. When I wake in the morning it’s refreshing. I survived the darkness.”
In short, Blaine Gabbert still makes Jacksonville fans shudder. His 2013 season was terrible by anybody’s standards because he played terribly and endured injuries. In three games he threw seven interceptions and just a single touchdown. Incredibly, this journeyman signal-caller is a Super Bowl winner because he served as Tom Brady’s backup in Tampa Bay.
