On the Trevor part, he wasn't ready to lead a pass heavy offense the first half of the season and a huge reason why we only had 2 wins in the first 8 games.  We would have a higher seed right now if we ran in a lot of situations early on when we should have.   Now he is ready!   I don't feel like going to find all your post claiming we should have ran more earlier in the season in a number of games.  That genius 4th and 1 run Sat. is a play Doug would of passed earlier in the season, he was still figuring this team out early on as was Trevor learning Dougs system.  Like the post said, if we were a run first team until Trevor figured it out we would have at least 3 more wins right now.  Dougs pay calling gave a few games away earlier in the year.  He was still figuring his team out and the players were still learning the system

You said this was the only fanbase that wanted Leftwich. 

Did you mean that as a compliment?? Or were you scrutinizing our fanbase?

LOL

BTW, I guarantee that's not true. I'm sure others out there had him in the mix. He interviewed in New Orleans and Houston you know. Not only that, but many in our base did not want the guy in Jax or preferred others ahead of him.

Yes i said this was the only fan base that wanted him, because we were.  It's because he is an ex Jag.  If it wasn't that all of the other fan bases would of wanted him like alot here did.   It's not a compliment or scrutinizing the fan base, it just is what it is.  I remember going to all the other the other fan bases forums last year that needed coaches at season end and none of them brought up Leftwich.   I loved when we hired McCardell as the WRs coach and I thought he did a great job.  Hopefully Byron can get a head coaching job and have a great career as a head coach but it wasn't a good look with the rumors of him trying to call the shots on the GM when he has never even been a HC before and a small caoching sample size.
