Some of the bad picks and acquisitions were likely a product of one or both of them compromising to the other and settling for less than what they wanted. 

They DEFINITELY disagreed on how to outfit the trenches of a football team and that totally bit them in the backside.

Agreed. If he'd take the call, I'd want his opinion for sure.

The only issue with calling him is that you're going to get a negative response, no matter who was innately at fault.  Now if you can do that just to get a feel for what the issues could be that's fine, but Doug's never going to suggest that the Jaguars job is great job to have.

Well, yeah.
 Something, something, Sherlock.
 It would be weird if he recommended the employer that just fired him. 

The point is what does he think makes it a bad job. That's what inquiring minds want to know. 

In all honesty, it sounds to me like Doug had his hands directly on the many of the moves and decisions that doomed the Jags since week 13 of 2023 and he has now paid the price for it. But I'd love to hear his take on Baalke, Khan, the supposed lack of hierarchy and what changes prompted him to just phone in the 2024 season.
