I was not aware that we had three WRs. I thought we had one receiver, one quitter, one guy who's forgotten more than most receivers will ever learn, one walking turnover and one kid who wishes he'd stayed in school that extra year.

As I've suggested a dozen times, even if we don't trust the receivers spreading the field some and forcing the defense into nickel would be advantageous for Fournette. Take the extra man out of the box, make the extra person trying to tackle him a small nickleback instead of a strong side linebacker...yeah i think that would help.

No thanks!

Sure we have that one 3 receiver set where we bunch them together in a triangle tight to the formation.  Woo hoo so modern.

Yeah.  Like McVay.   The Rams are lighting up the Bears D.....on Sunday night football...

We need the exact opposite of the oldest and stodgiest front office man in the league as HC.

Not hardly. Coughlin's teams are based on discipline and strong balanced offenses. Quite opposite of what Marrone was doing. I'm not advocating for him to take over as coach, but if he did, his approach would be considerably different than Marrone's.

Yep. 

It seems people forget at how strong the passing game was under Coughlin

They totally forgot.

His last season we had 6 to 7 games lost by a 2 points are less something crazy.

And our MLB was Wally Rainer (sp?)......

Nope he's resting on his laurels. He came here to delegate from the back row. He didn't want to really be involved.

You must have not watched the same game that I did.  I wouldn't exactly call 6 points "lighting up" any defense.

I don't think he will. I do however think that he is gonna do everything in his power to help this franchise succeed.

It was sarcasm for all the posters that want a "Passy Happy"  offense...

Many of us don't really want a pass happy offense, necessarily. 

We want an offense that is capable of converting 3rd and 5 through the air more efficiently than the what we've seen in Jax lately.  We want just enough of a passing threat that teams are forced to think twice about 9 in the box. 
It's not a huge ask. We want a team that when up on the scoreboard with two minutes to go and possession of the ball - can find a way to run out the clock. 

Personally - I love the old school approach - but I realize it requires more balance than the Jags currently have. 

Chalk some of it up to the line, chalk some of it up to the QB, chalk some up to receivers, whatever...
Regardless of all of that stuff - the Jags need a more forward thinking coordinator - and he needs to have some freedom to be creative about integrating the pass into the game-plan. 

It doesn't have to mean throwing the ball 45 times a game. The run can still be leaned upon heavily. 
In 2017 the Jags ran the ball 49% of the time.  
If that number changed to 42-44% rushing -  the Jags would still easily be a top ten team in run percentage and I think it would make a huge difference in a coordinator's options in attacking opposing defenses. 
(this is basically what the 2017 saints did  ^ 444 rushes and 528 pass attempts) 
Not too much to ask.

HOPE NOT!!!!

No way Tom comes out of the comfort of his senior position to coach. But you can bet he will assert more dominance and control this offseason.

although i hate 1010xl they had jason laconfer whoever on to interview about his report on tom. They called him on making it up, and asked if the info came in from the jags building. he got all bent out of shape and tried to fight them through the radio then hung up on them LOL

I'm glad they called him on his crap. 

I wish it happened more often to these clowns that just float fictional narratives for web-clicks. 

(LaCanfora BTW)

He apparently texted the station producer and told him he'd never come on the air for the station again. 
Whatever. No loss.

I agree that Coughlin will probably stay in his box next to Tony, but how can he "assert more dominance and control" if he has final say in all things football?

Why does 'ol Tom get a pass? I think the old 1996 image of Coughlin has been non-viable for many, many years. Why do you think he's all that different than Marrone? 

Players get injured and all of a sudden everyone's perception of people changes. Weird.

Look, I don't think Tom is a genius by any stretch of the word, but the fact is, the guy knows football more than anyone else in our front office. You'd think we'd learn the first time we chased him out of town, the guy deserves a decade to prove his worth before retiring.
