But when you take out JHA and Travon Walker regularly because of some delusional need to "rotate" players so you put scrubs in at DE during key situations, you get exactly the performance that you expect which is total suckness.

The D coordinator isn't putting players in position to make plays. Other teams have starter missing and they're able to compensate, but not the Jags. 32nd ranked defense in the league despite a lot of high priced free agents this offseason.

Yes, the rotation of players isn’t too smart. No team in the nfl has the depth to do this. This isn’t college football at #1 texas. Jags especially don’t have depth at any positions except maybe running back and line backer. I can see rotation there is possible.

So the bigger question is why do coaches and GMs hire guys who aren't a fit with the roster as it's built, and rather bring in a misfit that is either going to look the fool playing guys out of position, or require a reboot to get the guys he needs to make his process work?

That's incompetence.

After listening to this podcast, I think Colin Cowherd may be onto what our problem is. He starts talking about the Jags at 19:26. His thinking is that we have too many forces around the Jaguars that are too laid back after a loss. Owner, head coach, quarterback, local sports media, and even us fans. As a result, he thinks all of these things have converged to us with a team that "just feels loose and inefficient."

We obviously need a new GM for a variety of reasons, and our next coach probably needs to be more of a disciplinarian like Tom Coughlin, or maybe a Bill Parcells type. I think Trevor will be fine long term, but it wouldn't be a bad thing if he had a coach and OC who were willing to hold his feet to the fire if he doesn't play up to his abilities. He needs to get better, and it is going to take a new GM, HC, and OC to get the greatness out of him that we all know is there.

Been saying for a while that we need anger. Guys that take Ls personally. Guys that get pissed when their teammate fumbles away a big drive or drops a easy grab. Coaches that hold players to the fire when they repeatedly cost the team a stop.

We got good guys, a fantastic support group to lift you up when you're feelin down, friends that you'll love to go fishin with when the season is done. Foot ball is not a game for the well-adjusted, and we need some of those ill-adjusted boys to shake up the mix.
