Quote:The reporter might be 100% accurate, with Ray Horton later on issuing a contrasting statement in order to do damage control.  

 

I doubt the reporter would know any of that if Ray Horton wanted to keep it secret.

Quote:I doubt Gus Bradley has done any homework on Spags because the Giants expressed interest in retaining him. But if they are willing to let him out of his contract, that could change soon.

 

   I didn't even think of the possibility of Spags becoming the Jags DC.    Unless something changes substantially,   I think Spags will remain the Giants DC or become the Eagles DC.  Spags has a history with both organization.

   I would be surprised in this case if the reporter did anything wrong.  

Quote:My gut feeling is Ray Horton is going to end up in Cleveland, though nothing would surprise me in terms of how this turns out.  

 

First of all, did Ray Horton interview for the Browns DC job? I have seen no reports about that.

 

Second, have the Titans interviewed anyone else for their DC job?

If the reporter did nothing wrong, you can call Ray Horton a liar for denying all of those accusations.

  I haven't seen any reports regarding either question you asked.  

 

  Being that Tennessee made their HC position decision official Saturday,   it's possible they interviewed one or two DC candidates on Sunday.

  I don't think that the reporter got his story from Ray Horton.   I believe Horton got his story from John Wooten.

Usually assistant coaches are hired and fired by the head coach. I don't think Jon Robinson would interview someone for the DC job before choosing the HC.

   Jon Robinson just became the Tennessee G.M. late Thursday or early Friday and had multiple HC interviews on Friday before the decision was made on Saturday to promote Mike Murlakey from Interim HC to Head Coach.  Hence,   it's safe to assume that he didn't interview any DC candidates before choosing the HC. 

Back to the Jaguars, does Jim Shwartz seem to be a guy who can turn around a young defense that needs better players?

Yes and we will get better players this offseason. Should be intriguing for Schwartz.

I'm suprised Gus interviewed Schwartz. He's a pretty good defensive mind.


If we hire him, go out and get him some talent

Quote:I think he lives in Tennessee.

Hum are we allowed to have nice things?  Hope this follows through for us.

This from a year ago.....imagine what our defense would look like!    :devil:  :devil: 

Com' on Gus.....wrap this up.

<p style="background-color:transparent;">"Bills DC Jim Schwartz won't return to the team in 2015 after Buffalo hired coach Rex Ryan.


The Bills wanted to keep Schwartz, but the "philosophical differences" were too great to overcome. Meshing Schwartz's affinity for the Wide-9 and 4-3 schemes with Ryan's 3-4 simply wasn't a fit. Schwartz will have no shortage of suitors after he guided the Bills to an NFL-high 54 sacks this past season. Ryan will run the defense in Buffalo and bring DC Dennis Thurman with him from the Jets."

Schwartz is pretty much best case scenario. I dont know the last time I thought a hire like that was even possible for the jaguars.

Perfect situation for Schwartz.  Nowhere to go but up.  If he can make the worst defense in the league a top 15 defense he'll be on everyone's HC list this time next year.

Gregg Williams?

Great candidate to take over after Gus starts the season in a nosedive for the fourth year in a row.

You don't touch him with a bounty paper towel roll.
