Quote:It's not just the players. Coaches often stay where its safe. I'd bet there's always a coach with New England, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, etc. that gets offers from lesser teams, but they don't take it since their existing team is more stable. Would you go to Jacksonville of all places for a head coach with a losing record and one year left? I wouldn't risk a one-time bump in pay for the chance that they turn it around. If they were guaranteed that it'd be more than one year then they're probably more likely to make the move.

 

That's why I think they "chose" Wash to be defensive coordinator. No one decent would want to come into the situation the 2016 Jaguars were coming into.

 

It's the same reason why Dave will likely have to be fired with Gus, they'll not find a coach that wants to come in under a GM that is possibly a year from being fired.

 

Khan really screwed the pooch bringing Gus back for another year, they likely would have had much more interest in the HC job last offseason with the seeming success of the offense and a GM that seemed to be digging up talent at ever turn.
