Quote:The one that always amused me was the Kansas City Chiefs turnaround.  People pointed to them as an example of what SHOULD have happened with the Jags.  If the Chiefs could do it....  They completely ignored the fact that in the season where the Chiefs had a horrific record, they also had a team with 6 guys who made the Pro Bowl.  That was not a team that was void of talent, and they didn't blow the roster up. 

 

That same year, the Jags earned their record.  They were bad.  There was little talent on the roster.  There certainly weren't multiple Pro Bowlers on the team.  But, they were certainly being held to the same standard by a certain population on this board.

 

Yep. The turn arounds most usually mentioned were similar to the turnaround the Jags had under Shack and Jack. They still had multiple Pro Bowlers in place when Shack and Jack took over. They had essentially nothing in place when Caldwell took over. He mentioned the Eagles. They had half a dozen Pro Bowl players on offense alone when Chip Kelly took over.
