What's alarming is he seems to have used the last game of the season to settle a beef with the front office. It's like he didn't care who he angered, the execs or the players. Makes me wonder if he's simply burnt out at this point and needs to take a season off to recoup.

Maybe.

I can't speak to what is going on into his mind, other than what he said at his press conference.

But to the extent he may be capable of coaching this year, I would like him to be in Jacksonville if at all possible.

We just did this dance, it was not fun, and led Shad to want to have a say in all of the transactions.

I am perfectly fine with letting someone else roll the dice to see if it was a fluke or a trend.

So did he get sufficiant locker room support to win the Super Bowl?

Neither side is going to sway in this argument, and that is fine. My opinion, in the most succinct terms, is that his arrow is pointing down. I get that my opinion screams of recency bias. But I am not going to justify the hire just because of something he did three years ago, especially when the prevailing opinion around here is that had we not turned turtle in the second half of the AFCCG, that the Iggles were not nearly the threat that NE posed.

What?!?

You mean we are either too inept and unpersuasive, to stubborn and bull headed, or bothth to change another poster's mind?!?  Existing on a Jaguars message board?!?  Say it ain't so!     Laughing

I just hope we get a great coach at the end of the day.  It doesn't have to necessarily be my first choice.  As long as he develops and gets the most out of Lawrence and gets the Jaguars a few of those shiny Lombardu trophies here in Jacksonville.
