What a let down to say the least. I've never been more embarrassed as a fan of this franchise. To all you hard working season ticket holders. More power to you. I don't know how you folks do it. It's like beating a dead horse. But, here it goes.

 

Fire Bradley. That's the first order of business that needs to be handled tomorrow morning. I don't care if it's a short week with a game in tennessee on thursday night against the tacks. Today's embarassment calls for swift action. Olson should be fired next. Give the interim head coach and new offensive play caller the rest of this year to see if the offense can be addressed differently with a hopeful stopage of regression in Blake Bortles. And with hopefully an improvment in the running game.

 

The entire team has regressed. Receivers are not getting seperation. Receivers are dropping passes when they do get open and manage to get a clean pass in their direction. Bortles over and under throwing receivers. The consistent offensive holding calls in criticial down and distance situations. The ejections and personal fouls. It's abundantly clear that Gus Bradley has lost this football team completely. He has no control. And he doesn't have the team's respect anymore. It's over.

 

I can no longer defend any player on our offense. But I can also point to the fact that this offense has always struggled in the running game and pass protection regardless of who was carrying the football or throwing the football. I can also point to the fact that we fired Jedd Fisch who ranked 31st the year he was fired and replaced him with Greg Olson who was ranked 32nd the year he took the same role here in Jacksonville.

 

At some point. You have to cut your losses and admit a monumental mistake was made roughly four years ago. Caldwell needs to man up and speak on this. Bradley isn't fit to be a head coach right now at this level. And it's time to move onto someone else.

 

I am ready for this announcement tomorrow morning.

 

"Gus Bradley has been terminated. Doug Marrone will step in as this year's interim head coach and will assume the offensive play calling duties. Greg Olson has been demoted to quarterback coaching duties at this time. Todd Wash will remain as this year's defensive coordinator".
