JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Swell Flaske Norge . -- Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shad Khan has kept a fairly low profile around the team.He got more involved than usual after one of the most embarrassing losses in coach Gus Bradleys four-year tenure.Khan made a rare appearance in front of the team Monday night, a day after a 33-16 loss to Oakland, several people familiar with the situation said. They said Khans message was why are we not winning and what can we do to fix it? The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Wednesday because details of the meeting have not been disclosed.The owners open forum allowed players and coaches to ask questions and exchange thoughts about whats gone wrong for a team that was expected to make a significant jump this season, the people said.The Jaguars (2-4) play at Tennessee (3-4) on Thursday night.Players and coaches insist what happened against Oakland was a fluke. The Jaguars had a late-game meltdown in the 33-16 loss Sunday. Receiver Marqise Lee was flagged for using a racial slur. Defensive tackle Malik Jackson was ejected after picking up two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, including one for using abusive language toward an official. And cornerback Jalen Ramsey was tossed for fighting. Throw in defensive lapses, dropped passes, the teams inability to run the ball and Blake Bortles continued inaccuracy, indecision and inconsistency, and the Jaguars looked like a team on the verge of spiraling out of control.Khan noticed, and wanted to help.It was an unusual move for the billionaire owner who doesnt live in Jacksonville and hasnt been known to meddle.Nonetheless, it was the second time in less than a month he spoke to the Jags. He addressed players and coaches before their annual game in London earlier this month, pointing out that despite a 0-3 start they had a chance to show the world they trusted and believed in what was going on in Jacksonville. He asked for a repeat of Wembley, and the Jaguars delivered.They beat Indianapolis 30-27 for their second straight win across the pond.The Jags now have a chance Thursday to improve to 2-0 after Khan talks.Regardless, Khans increased presence raises questions about whether hes trying to garner information on the current coaching situation. The Jaguars are 14-40 under Bradley, the second worst winning percentage for any coach in NFL history with at least 50 games of experience. Only Bert Bell (Philadelphia, Pittsburgh) fared worse, and he also was the owner.Khan has spent millions improving the game-day atmosphere in Jacksonville, working with the city to install the worlds largest scoreboards, revamp club seating and break ground on an indoor practice facility that will connect to an amphitheater.Hes spent even more to upgrade the roster, including a defensive overhaul the last two seasons that had paid small dividends. Wins remain few and far between, though.Khan said earlier this year that a winning record is everybodys reasonable expectation at this point .The Jaguars need to go 7-3 the rest of the way to make that happen, and they play four of the next five on the road.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Swell Flaske Salg . -- Jimmy Walkers first PGA Tour trophy came with a special gift tucked inside.

However, 24 teams will attend the pro day for former Baylor basketball player Rico Gathers. The power forward hasnt played football since he was 13, but is hoping to impress scouts and coaches as a potential NFL-calibre tight end.During a three-week intensive work out Gathers has been catching passes from NFL quarterback Matt Flynn, as well as working with former NFL safety Ryan Clark to help develop his technique. Measuring up at 6ft 7in, Gathers will perform a range of speed and agility tests as he works through a full scouting combine routine at the New Orleans Saints training camp.Gathers is not likely to get picked up until the end of the draft, if at all, but this appearance could have a large bearing on whether teams will consider taking a gamble on him.
