Quote:OTOH, the 1990's Bengals stuck with their failed coaches for an average of 4 years. It didn't help their record or improve the league perception of them. Your Lions stuck with Fontes too long, and followed it up with Bobby Ross for four years. Marinelli got three full years. [Never underestimate the power of the] Schwartz got five. How did that work out? 
The Browns stuck with Butch Davis and Crennel for four seasons each. It didn't help.

 

 

The Browns and Raiders changed coaches frequently because 1) they chose bad coaches to begin with, and 2) their personnel decisions were horrendous, especially in Oakland with Al Davis in charge. Look at the list of coaches for both teams since 2002. It's a list of unproven former NFL assistants (plus previously failed Norv Turner). Just like the Jags with unproven Bradley (plus previously failed Mularkey).


It's time for the Jags to hire someone with a proven winning NFL record. There's no guarantee, since even the best coach can only do so much with a bad roster. But it would give the Jags the best chance of turning this disaster around. Right now we have to hope that the roster is not the Jags problem, otherwise there's no hope at all.
