For Those Upset Caldwell and/or Marrone Weren't Fired

The truth is I don't know if there is a quick fix available in a short time frame.  We are up against the wall with the cap. The short answer is to change for a defensive minded team to an offensive minded team.  

Here are the facts.

The Jags just finished with the 2nd best pass defensive team in 2018 and 5th overall best defense.   Being that good only resulted in a 5-11 record.

3 out of the top 5 offense's in 2018 are legit superbowl contenders.  That's why I would be willing to part with any defender if the price was right.  The rules are bent heavily towards the offense.  It is time to start building on that side of the ball.


I find this to puzzling, especially in light of the fact that the team---with that awful offense---still lost 6 games by 6 points or less.

Also, I bear in mind that every trend sees a swing back in due time.  Personally, I believe the team tried to be on the front end of that trend last year, and hoped to continue that, when the Line folded, 27 injured, 30 going out as the change of pace, Bortles regresses, and no threats at all on offense develop like the year before.
