The final days of Bradley in Jacksonville


Quote: Justin Rogers,  one of the Lions beat writers from the MLive.Com website wrote the following today in his weekly Power Rankings article.   IMO,  Rogers is one of the best Lions beat writers and ranks pretty high up overall in terms of NFL beat writers.   Take his thoughts anyway you want.   I'm just posting this for information purposes,  which provides the perspective of a NFL beat writer who got to watch Gus Bradley and his staff up close this past January:

31. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-11)

I was really impressed with Gus Bradley's staff watching them work with players at the Senior Bowl last year, but the Jaguars still lack talent on both sides of the ball. (Last week: 30)
 

I too was impressed by his coaching in the Senior Bowl.


 

I've been less impressed at his handling of the team this year. Poor play design (especially in short yardage situations), bad time management, deciding on starters and then cutting them a few weeks later, six blocked kicks/punts, decline in play by most of the 2013 draft class ... Some of that is the responsibility of the coordinators and assistants, but Bradley chose them.


 

I wasn't expecting much from the team this year, my preseason prediction was 5-11. I was expecting improvement. Instead, the Jags are setting NFL all-time records for ineptitude this year. There's a huge gap between a young team needing another year to develop and the total disgrace that we see just about every week.


 

As far as Fisch, I was willing to give him another year. Since the offense was loaded with rookies I thought it was impossible to evaluate him. But after he blatantly lost confidence in Bortles and handcuffed him in the Indy game, it became clear that Fisch is not right for the job. The problem is, as others have pointed out, if Fisch is replaced then the OC may need to be replaced again if Bradley is canned in 2015. It looks to me like we're stuck with the whole staff for another year.
