I love our coach currently, but I don’t think it’s great when you have a super power, and you don’t use it. He is supposed to be an offensive guru, but he doesn’t want to call plays. I think he should follow The excellent example of superbowl coach Andy Reid. IMO

Ps if this is a do or die year, I’d want to be driving and not a passenger.

That’s like being in a horrible relationship and assuming you will do it again. I do think us jags fans are so relieved to have a lot better product, so we should not take that for granted.

I thought I read somewhere not too long ago, where, Doug was asked about resuming play calling duties, or, who would be calling the plays. There's a good chance he'll resume full time play calling duties if the offense struggles and stalls like it did last year. With or without personnel challenges.

He'll have to take the reigns at some point if they start getting into a slump that results in a 2 - 4 start. Just like Caldwell last year, it won't be Doug getting canned in the off season. He'll get rid of Taylor and more than likely Rauscher if the offense can't get it done in the trenches.

This speculation about the OC the last year s just wild. In Philliy Doug wanted to keep Mike Groh but Roseman and Lurie forced his hand to fire him and made him publicly walk back his statement that Groh was staying, a huge embarrassment. He took over play calling and then they demanded he give that up and hire an OC (that they wanted, not Doug's choice). He fired back by naming Press Taylor and saying he was keeping the play sheet and they didn't like that so he resigned. All this nonsense here about Doug not calling plays here and ultimately he left Philly because he WOULDN'T give it up. Then people attribute all kinds of stupidness to his motivations about Taylor, it's comical. The guy does what Doug wants with Doug's offense, if he doesn't Doug changes it. That people really think Pederson is oblivious to the offense here is just ridiculous, almost as ridiculous as people saying it's "win or else" this year for him.
