Quote:That was honestly my biggest take away from the PC.  Dave's been in the shadows for some time now and hasn't really been heard from.  Hearing him talk today, gives me a lot of confidence in him moving forward.

 

I never saw him as the problem, and his statements regarding Gus further solidified that as Gus WASN'T "his guy" as many thought.  He was comfortable with the decision, but the way he said it, awkwardly I might add, seemed like maybe he wasn't completely sold on him at the start, but Shad, Tony and Mark were.

 

Ultimately, he did exactly that.  Said the right things.

 

Now, let's see him DO the right things.

 

He said the right things when he was hired, too...

 

<p style="margin-left:40px;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:rgb(68,68,68);font-size:1.167em;">Caldwell said he’s going to bring “a track record of success” to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

<p style="margin-left:40px;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:rgb(68,68,68);font-size:1.167em;">“From my time in high school, college…My time in Indianapolis, my time in Atlanta…I’ve always continued to be part of a sustainable winner.  I’ve never endured a sustainable losing team.”

<p style="margin-left:40px;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:rgb(68,68,68);font-size:1.167em;">He said the benchmark for his success for the team will be “continuous improvement.”

<p style="margin-left:40px;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:rgb(68,68,68);font-size:1.167em;">“Even when excellence is evident, I still want us to continually improve,” Caldwell said.

So far, he's failed reaching his boastful goal of "continuous improvement."  Jaguars under Dave are:

 

4-12

3-13

5-11

2-12 (so far)

 

He'll need his interim to go 2-0 just to keep up with his four wins a season average.

 

You're quite a few years behind in trying to hold him to his promises...
