Quote:I'm trying to find reasons to be optimistic of this move. I reason that except for one year (Holt/Bruce/S-Jax), he's never had top talent to work with. But, man...it's tough. Going through some of his interviews, the one thing he talks often about is creating his scheme around the players, not the other way around. This is good. Whether he can do that successfully is another thing.


Carr fits in WCO, which is most of Olson's experience. I'm not sure that Blake is as good a fit in this offense as Carr (who has a compact release with ELITE arm strength). On the downside, from his interviews, it sounds like he really, really, REALLY thought MJD had something left in the tank (when any Jag fan who's watched MJD over the years knew he was done two years ago, much less last season). This while they let a promising young back sit on the bench until late in the year. Then you have James Jones. I get it, he's no longer with the Packers and he doesn't have an MVP QB throwing the ball to him. But his drop in YPA is...noteworthy. This was a guy who was noted for being a deep threat (with questionable hands) who suddenly found his YPA drop from the 14s, 13s most years to...barely 9 YPA. Same with Denarius Moore.


You know one of the complaints we had as Jaguar fan (to the point of Tony Khan tweeting it) was how unexplosive our offense is and how bad our YPA is at 6.2.


Guess who's ranked lower than us and last in the league? The Raidahs....at an absolutely pathetic and Gabbert-esque 5.2 YPA.
