Wait he took the Raiders to their fifth SuperBowl in 2002 as a head coach (only the 4th rookie HC to do that), then only 4 wins the next season and was fired (a few felt he lost on purpose to spite the franchise), and he never became a HC again?

A west coast style coach?

A great Oline coach for the Jets and now Cowboys but in 2013 took over play calling as well....

 

I am on the fence about a west coast offense...

--------------------------

wiki states;

 

The West Coast offense requires sure-handed receivers who are comfortable catching in heavy traffic, and the system downplays speedy, larger receivers who are covered easily in short yardage situation. One result has been the longevity of receivers in the West Coast system such as Jerry Rice, because familiarity with the system and clear signalling is of greater importance than systems that require a receiver to "stretch the field" where any loss of speed is a major liability. "WCO" systems also rely on agile running backs that catch the ball as often as they run. Roger Craig was a leading receiver for the 49ers for many years and was a 1,000 yard rusher and 1,000 yard receiver in the 1985 season. Finally, receivers must follow precise, complicated routes as opposed to improvisation, making meticulous, intelligent players more valued than independent, pure athletes. Jerry Rice's unique skill-set made him a reliable and durable asset in both Walsh's and Seifert's versions of the West Coast Offense, and he was able to break numerous NFL receiving records over the course of his career. Rice, who earned induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010, recorded 1,549 receptions, 22,895 receiving yards, and 208 total touchdowns, more than any other NFL player in all three categories

 

---------------------------------


Jedd tried to make shoelace a WR but he cant run routes well and doesnt have the best hands how would he fare as a west coast RB after reading the above?  and the WRs that the Jaguars currently have are comfortable catching in heavy traffic and arent the fastest WRs in the league but did tend to do okay in short yardage... I prefered Bortles throwing deep but he did throw a lot of ints and was better with the short game.


Hmm..
