When you lose much more often than not in the NFL,  it's hard to believe that fluke plays are a major reason why.   IMO,  there are very few fluke plays in the NFL. 

 

Most NFL games aren't decided until the 4th QTR.   The fact that the Jaguars aren't winning remotely close to enough of these games goes beyond talent level.   In year # 4 of a coaching regime,  a team shouldn't be losing games in large part because of Special Teams having coverage breakdowns with regularity.  

 

One decision that at the very least is highly questionable was the timeout that Gus Bradley took late in the 2nd QTR in the Bills game.  The Bills were ready to attempt a FG.   The Jaguars would have had a halftime lead under normal circumstances.   Considering the difficult for the Jaguars in the vertical passing game,   letting the clock run out as quickly as possible seemed like the best course of action.   The way Bradley coached that sequence appears to be illogical. 

 

If Gus Bradley is back in 2017,  other than money,  what is the incentive for other teams FAs signing multi-year contracts with the Jaguars?    With a coaching change being more likely than not in 2018,  a player could be phased out with a coaching and system change.   Why not go to a more stable situation!
