Jags Hire Greg Olson as OC


And for those heralding the notion of "players, not plays....", then are you willing to admit that this whole process was....moot?

 

That we should have kept Fisch? After all, players not plays...right?

 

Maybe we should have hired Wilson despite his lack of experience. After all, players not plays...right?

 

Better yet, let's pull an Eddie and just have a fan call the plays using Madden. After all, players not play...right?

Players AND plays.

The whole notion is that players are vastly more important than plays. Don't be so dramatic over the obvious.

The more important factor is his ability to teach fundamentals so execution of plays can occur.

Use the plyers to open up the playbook cuz the 4 plays we ran all year weren't fooling anyone

How can you not be excited about this hire?

 

Gus has a vision of what the Jags Offense should be.

 

He found that guy who can make that vision a reality and that has me excited about the Jags future as an Offense.

 

Gus had the Defense looking pretty good in 2014.

 

In 2015, the Offense will show a similar type improvement resulting in 7 to 9 wins.

See, what had happened was...


Gase let slip that not only did he not call the plays in Denver, when asked about his philosophy on motivating players to their greatest potential, he said he is a big froyo guy, so that was the deal breaker for Gus.

So Denver didn't improve as the year went on and that's why we let Gase and every other option walk. Makes sense.

If you're parents, I hope you don't apply the same knee jerk reaction to every disappointing thing your children do. 
Your the definition of a lemming.  You should just shut your hole because you end up looking like an idiot after all is said and done.

FBT and the croonies always latch on too some kind of motto.  Then after they name call all the "whiners" they vanish from the board.  Bradley sucks for this team and we will see a new head coach in 2016.  This hiring is just beyond reasonable.

You got it all wrong.

 

Gase said he like pudding and hated sprinkles.  The interview was over after that.

There's a big difference between whiners and making a point with some sort of substance. 

 

I'm glad to see you think this hiring is beyond reasonable tho!

Yup.  Gase hurt Peyton's legs and turned his arm into a noodle.

I don't have to make a point.  The proof is in the results.  This team has been atrocious since 2008.   There is your proof along with the many questionable decisions made thereafter.

 

The new regime is 7-25.   Yea that breeds along of confidence they know what they are doing.
