Jaguars coach fires back in war of words with Colts

By Phillip B. Wilson

Once again, the Jacksonville Jaguars followed a loss to the Indianapolis Colts with accusations of dirty play. This time it came straight from the coach.

One day after losing to the Colts 21-14 at the RCA Dome, Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio accused them Monday of illegally vaulting to try to block field goal attempts and said his offensive linemen were repeatedly hit in the head by pass rushers.
Del Rio responded to a postgame comment by Colts punter Hunter Smith, who said the Jaguars are "like the stand-up comic who can only use vulgarity and curse words because he lacks intelligence and lacks class. . . . A team that gets personal fouls the way they do, the roughing penalties, they just don't have any material."
Shot back Del Rio: "It must be something with the kickers over there," referring to ex-Colt Mike Vanderjagt, who once said quarterback Peyton Manning and coach Tony Dungy lacked intensity. "If (Smith) starts talking about Peyton, let me know."

Sounds to me like this is shaping up to be a nice little rivalry.

That division needs this. Colts have been ruling the division long enough. I like competitive divisions.

well after 3 staright losses I would say(and I highly respect the Jags and Love Del Rio to death) shut your damn mouth,dont retaliate,log it in the memory bank and just go out and play. What the Colts Deserve and need is a good ol fashioned tail whipping of 38-3. The best way to not have the officials determine a game is not be in position to by not blowing the other team away. One call makes a difference in a one score game, one call doesnt mean JACK in a 21 point thrashing. Put it in the helmet and destroy them in the rematch, but if you cant win dont pout about it.

Exactly, look at the Texans, they know to just be quiet and take their beatings like men. You don't see Dunta Robinson complaining about Harrison and Wayne lighting him on fire, or the front four whining about be thrown around like small girls. They just bend over and let the inevitable happen, then they go home and sit on their donuts for a week.

I think he does, if Del Rio can complain every game about the Colt's play than Smith should be able to talk about them.

I am saying from the fact that Smith was no way mentioned with this criticisms and he should not be the won to answer back. I mean he is a punter after all.
