That is the attitude the Jaguars want. Blackmon was reportedly argumentative when pulled over by police. "It's (look in the) mirror time," one Jaguars official told Len Pasquarelli of Sports XChange on Tuesday. "He's going to have to 'fess up,' take ownership of the situation, and lay out a course for dealing with this thing head-on." According to NFL.com, Blackmon, who pleaded not guilty to a misdemeanor DUI charge on Monday, was also expected to meet with GM Gene Smith and HC Mike Mularkey on Tuesday. ...
