Let us not forget that Dave Caldwell got 8 years and Gus Bradley full four years of the most stank product on the field before Khan made a change.   Doug is riding high on 2 back to back winning seasons (an eternity in Jacksonville) along with a playoff win.  Doug Can Point out that they lost a lot of games in a one score manner.  Yes the offense had it's problems. For many reasons some of the players who came back in 2024 did not perform at their same level in previous years.  ETN has not been as good, Kirk has been hurt, Ingram was hurt for some of this year, Cam Robinson under-performed and got traded, the offensive line due to circumstances have been a patchwork unit, Due to injury the only real WR threat on the field currently is BJT.  The QB was hurt during the season but lets be honest he wan't playing good before the injury.  Despite all that, the offense has played well enough to keep us in games this year. 
  The real issue was the defense I would say to Mr Khan.  They are the last ranked unit for a reason. They played so bad while allowing some teams score on every possession it made Doug change his whole offensive game plan.  It's hard to establish any offense when the defense lets the offense stay on the field for 40 mins a game. I would argue that the offense could not run their game plan in many games due to how bad the defense played.

My Trent Baalke argument:

Hey Khan, those smart guys over at the Duval Pride message board are saying how Lawrence is the franchise and I drafted him.  BJT right now is looking like a stud and star WR and I drafted him.  Walker Little has been playing well at the LT spot and again I drafted him, I have been a part of the winning seasons and playoff win recently. We just gave some of our young talent new contracts. The fans are so happy they are wearing clown mask in the stands.  Overall this team has been competitive the last few years.  This season the Jaguars lost a handful of games by one score. I would argue this is an off year and field a detail plan on how to fix the holes on the team.  The first step is firing Neilson. Overall Baalke has been miles better than Either Dave Caldwell and Gene Smith before him.

I am not saying I want them to stay but Khan may decide to ride it out again.
