Jaguars troll Falcons for copying their idea with message to fans
Just like Urban Meyer, the Falcons' Arthur Smith is 0-2 in his first season as an NFL head coach. Jason Getz-USA TODAY Sports

Urban Meyer addressed Jaguars fans with a somewhat unusual statement after Jacksonville's second loss of the season, and the Atlanta Falcons apparently like the idea.

Hours after the Jaguars’ home loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday, Meyer issued a brief statement to fans urging them to “hang in there with us.” Here’s what it looked like:

Then on Monday, Falcons head coach Arthur Smith made similar remarks to the media about his team’s 0-2 start. The Falcons shared the comments on Twitter in a very similar font to the one the Jaguars used for Meyer’s statement.

To summarize, what we have here is two 0-2 teams arguing over which team did it first. That’s as sad as it gets.
