People were talking about how bringing Coughlin in would be a stabilizing, guiding force, and that promoting Marrone was the right move. Also, see any blow hard in the media during their one successful year. We all knew it was only a matter of time with Dougie leading the team. Plus, Coughlin’s style grew stale in NY. He’s a real hit with millennials. Expand I mean, they went to the AFCCG with Bortles at QB. That’s a pretty solid achievement.

LOL I'll let you google it. I already did. It's not a pretty search. Expand “Obviously“ exaggeration, sarcasm, and hyperbole are lost on you. Do you really think I was inferring people thought they’d be better than Belichick, Harbaugh, Tomlin, etc.? Come on man. The talking heads were quite pleased with this hire after the Gus Bradley loose-ship regime (fans not so much). Thought Marrone and Coughlin were just what they needed by bringing in a disciplined style. Only furthered by a fluke run to an AFC Championship. This is not news.

Still have no idea how they pulled that off. Yeah, they had a great D, but Bortles stepped up against big time opponents that year. He was awful in the WC game against us. Foreshadowing with respect to how good the Bills D would be come. Edited December 19, 2019 by TheProcess

HalftimeAdjustment Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 When the NFLPA noted that a player won a $700K grievance, that 25% of all grievances were against Jacksonville, and players may wish to consider these facts when selecting a team, it was all over. As long as Coughlin remained, they'd only be able to sign the desperate. No one wants to work for a team that is basically 8x as likely to hassle them as any other team in the league. 1

Doc Brown Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 A small win for the Jaguars players. They no longer have to show up four hours early for meetings. No more three a days without water in full pads in August. An hour and a half long Catholic Mass before games no longer mandated. Hoover stew no longer the only selection at the dining hall. Bring on the free agents. 1
