I just read some you tube comments on a dolphins fans recap from their Monday night debacle. Wow. They are more mad than even jags fans. They want to fire McDaniel and hate his play calling. I was like we will trade you pederson for McDaniels. They also hate their gm and think their team is way too soft.

"What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."

In defense of Shad Khan.

The dude gets a bad rap. Yeah, he held on to Gus Bradley too long. But the hire was a good hire, in theory. A young and up coming DC that was credited with the Legion of Boom in Seattle. He stayed on too long, for sure. But let's just think that Shad is a patient man. He fired Mularkey and Meyer within 1 season.

But he hired both those coaches looking for certain things. Mularkey was supposed to be a tried and true HC with experience in the NFL. It didn't work. He was fired after 1 season. Urban Myer, which many fans thought was the correct hire, was vastly sought after college HC that had success in several stints throughout high level college programs. He clearly was a douche bag, I hated the hire, but it was a decision many thought was a good fit. Shad [BLEEP] canned him within 1 season.

The Marrone fiasco started out OK, but he clearly wasn't able to get the best out of the players. He lasted a few years because he kept showing growth with the team, untill the complete disaster wrough by Tom "golden boy of jacksonville" Coughlin decided he'd rather blow up the defense and give a huge contract to a clearly unworthy QB.

Shad has made many decisions that can come to question. But he's tried to get the best people here. Now, with the Doug Pederson experiment, my first choice was Lefty... But when we hired Doug, I thought that was pretty good decision. And after 2022, it looked like the move that was going to turn around the franchise.

It obviously hasn't. Doug and his Offensive stooges have to go after this season.

But I have confidence that Shad is going to do the right thing here. He's not a feckless owner. But what's better, he's also not an owner that overpowers the team or the narrative of the team. He's tried several approaches to brining in the right people to run the team. He hasn't delivered yet. But I think he's got a good handle on what needs to happen next.

This is not a disfunctional franchise. It's just a franchise that got a new owner and has been trying his best to find the right recipe. I have confidence that the next moves this offseason will begin to turn this disaster around.

Doug may be losing the locker room.

He lost the entire team on Week 1 after he sat on his hands after the ETN fumble.

It's funny you throw out these names like these guys really want anything to do with this organization. Majority of these guys come from winning franchises - money dont make them move from an establishment place and come to a disaster place.

The fact of the matter is that the Jacksonville job is not an attractive destination.

I doubt those front offices or coaches come here. First of all we have destroyed our roster with ridiculous signings and we have a QB that is not a good player. No one is taking this job besides guys like Baalke or some other retread.

Bad take in my opinion. For a number of reasons. 

1. It's Florida, it's a tax free state, and, we're fixing to get a brand new Stadium.

2. It's Shad Khan, one of the most easy going, money spending owners in the NFL that is beyond patient. 

3. It's 1 of 32 rare NFL jobs, and, the difference in pay between being a coordinator and head coach is astronomically different.

4. Those reasons you cited above? It gives the next group of hires even more freedom, flexibility and patience to fix or tweak some of the mistakes Baalke and Pederson have made. 

You don't think Vrabel, Belichick or Carroll wouldn't be interested in coming to Jacksonville to takeover this team and try and fix it? Guys are competitive man. Winners want to fix things. Winners want to turn things around. Again, your take is pretty bad in my opinion.

Cleveland is doing better now. 
Detroit is doing better now. 
Washington is doing better now. 
Cincinnati is doing better now. 

You think any of those four cities were "attractive" or "luxurious" for their current coaches and staffs at the time they were bought or brought on? All of those locations were hell holes for quite some time.

Well said.

Will have to revisit this post next season when the head coaching search begins....
