Our franchise has always been scraping the bottom of the barrel when it came to FA hires and head coaches. Things don't feel that way now. At least not IMO. You know Dallas would have puled the trigger on Meyer in a second if he showed interest last year. But we got him. That doesn't happen to this team.

GO Jags

Since he was hired im rooting for him. Not going to judge him before hes even blown his whistle. I hope he is the guy that turns us around. I saw this from Fox, i like a lot of what he says and his football knowledge but i do think its fair to understand why people have question marks. The step up from college to NFL has proved tough for coaches before.

The step up from NFL coordinator to NFL HC has proven equally tough for coaches.  The failure rate of NFL coordinators who become NFL head coaches is enormous.  So I don't put much stock in this thing about "lack of NFL experience."  NFL experience doesn't seem to make coordinators any more successful as head coaches than guys coming straight from college.
