David Garrard completed 25-of-42 passes for 283 yards and two touchdown passes on Sunday. He added seven carries for 59 yards on the ground.
Our View:Just like last season, Garrard is quietly gaining momentum. He has four 200-plus yard games in a row, and over that time he has a 5/0 TD/INT ratio. He has two great matchups ahead at Cincinnati and at Detroit, and he should continue to be worth using.

David Garrard completed 18-of-32 passes for 200 yards and a score in the Jaguars' 26-21 loss to the Steelers.
Our View:Garrard was pressured all night against the Steelers and with no running game at all he was forced into a lot of third down and longs. Turning the ball over is still a problem for Garrard who has more interceptions than touchdowns.

David Garrard , according to the teams Official Website. “We’d like to improve Dave as a deep-ball thrower. Dave is a good seam thrower but, the over-the-top routes, we’re trying to get better in those,” offense coordinator Dirk Koetter said.
Our View:Garrard's game will continue to be the short and intermediate passes that he excels on as he did complete 64.0% of his passes last year for a 102.2 QB Rating. He may not be a breakout candidate, but another solid season surely seems to be in the cards, especially if they choose to open up the passing game a bit.

March 21, 2008
The contract negotiations between David Garrard and the Jacksonville Jaguars have been progressing at a slower rate than many believed they would, according to Pro Football Weekly. The sticking point revolves around agent Al Irby's assertion that Garrard deserves a contract commensurate with the deal Tony Romo inked with the Cowboys, which was six years for $67 million. The Jags have countered by saying they believe Romo was overpaid, and that they don't think it's appropriate to commit such money to a player with only one year of full-time starting experience. Garrard is still likely to get a deal done before training camp, although it wouldn't come as too big a surprise if he agrees to an extension during the '08 season. The one thing for certain is that the Jags will make sure Garrard does not test the open market next offseason, even if it means slapping the franchise tag on him.

The agent for quarterback David Garrard said he hopes to reach a deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars in the next few days, but left open the possibility the two sides won't agree on a new contract this year, according to Ultimate Jaguars. "Nothing is any different today than it was two months ago,'' Al Irby said. "It could take two days, two weeks or not get done at all. This is the way negotiations go. One minute you're going down the right track, but then a snag can set you back.'' If the two sides can't agree, Garrard would play out the final year of his current contract at just under $2 million and then become a free agent. The Jaguars would then have the option of slapping the franchise tag on him, which costs $10.7 million this year and will likely go up in the future.

Garrard gets a tough assignment at New England next week, unless the Titans upset San Diego Sunday.
