Quote:I can see it because it was the football culture that was lacking. On gameday, the Jaguars moved the ball up and down the field, and they stopped teams defensively, etc, but they struggled to win games because they consistently failed in the turnovers department typically managed to choke in the final minutes. The position coaches from what I can tell did their job, but it's like the culture for getting turnovers on defense and protecting the ball on offense was flat out lacking, as was the fundamentals for winning close football games in the end. That's all on the HC.

 

There also have been a lot of blurbs coming out stating that gus gave players a specific role for each play and they werent allowed to adapt or change what they were doing even if the offense changed. 

 

just something as simple as that could have ruined the season. you cant keep smashing these square pegs in round holes. 

 

same thing on offense.... olson or gus, whoever decided on things like running toby up the middle 40 times in a row for no gain...its stuff like that, no creativity, no adapting, no halftime adjustments. 

 

gus left his ice cream fingerprints all over everything and it brought everyone down.
