The media stated that Greg Olson success with Quarterbacks, most recently Carr of the Raiders, is why he was brought in as the OC for Jacksonville.  Though the football outsiders list Carr only a couple guys above Blake Bortles (whom is at the bottom) for Quarterback rankings.  It is a good thing Marrone will be in charge of the Oline as the Raiders Oline was ranked poor, only slightly ahead of the Jaguars last year according to Football Outsiders whom ranked the raiders only above the Jaguars as the worst Team offense last year.  It begs the question why bring back the guy whom was the Oc under Mularkey when so many fans were upset with that season as the team's OC?  What offense scheme or type of playbook should we expect to see?

 

What does Olson say?  

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

"Certainly the win-loss record wasn't what we wanted it to be in Oakland," Olson said. "But I'll promise you that was important in his development. And when the franchise looks back, they'll say, 'That was a really important year for that quarterback,' so we're going to look at the same things with Blake."

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

 

Did he basically tell fans to expect the same losses the Raiders had last season while he mentors Blake Bortles like Carr?  Oh boy we are in for another season like the last two....

----------

But the fact the Raiders and Jaguars ranked 31st and 32nd in the league in yards and points last year makes you wonder how much progress he represents over Jedd Fisch -NBC Sports stated

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

 

The best coach is a coach whom can adapt to his surroundings and pull the talent out of the players he was given to use as best as one can, and that is what Gus Bradley hopes Olson can do for his offense.

What can we expect from Greg Olson type of Offense this season in Jacksonville?

One might suggest a lot of roll out play action horizontal passing attacks. 

 

When you have Julius Thomas, M. Lewis, Clay Harbor, Ben Koyack, (possibly) Neal Sterling, among others you have to assume he plans on having two TEs on the field a majority of the time.

His young WR core is ideal for the short passing game, combined with fast running backs I would expect a heavy run first smash mouth offense.

 

What do you think his playbook will look like for the Jaguars?
