Have you heard of the A-Team? No, I’m not talking about a TV show that features Mr.T and I’m definitely not talking about a remake that features former UFC star Quinton”Rampage” Jackson. I’m obviously talking about the two young standout Jaguar wideouts Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns. Robinson and Hurns have combined for 21 touchdown receptions so far this season, compared to a combined total of eight touchdowns last season (six of them coming from Hurns). This is easily the best combination at wide receiver the Jaguars have had since Jimmy Smith and Keenan Mccardell. Allen Robinson is the first Jaguar wide receiver to have 1,000 yards since Jimmy Smith in 2005. It’s so satisfying to see that the Jaguars have found their future at the wideout position and before I move on to my next topic, I will leave you with two amazing plays by the A-Team.
Here is the game winning catch by Allen Hurns,
and here is one the several times Allen Robinson has “Mossed” someone this season.
The A-Team has a great chance to be a dominant force for many years to come and with T.J. Yeldon and Julius Thomas locked in to be Jaguars for a long time, the offensive weapons should be a huge strength for Jacksonville going forward.
