whatdrought Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Jags make me really glad that we’re going into the off-season not saying “meh, we’re okay with the QB.” Its gonna be fun having a future!

hemma Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I'm hoping that Coughlin immediately terminates Marrone's employment. Tomorrow, a bolt from the heavens strikes and gets him a permanent and binding lifetime job as Assistant to the Senior Vice President and Director of Football Operations of the XFL. May the 2 egomaniacs be bound together, forever and ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I saw a lot of OJ’s runs. Greatest RB ever if you ask me. That’s why I said “among” the greatest runs ever. It beats Dorsett’s run for difficulty. It’s automatically in the conversation. And overall 3rd best rushing total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, quit drinking so early in the morning; your posts might start to make some sense. Second, my commentary has nothing to do with ether Marrone or Hogan. It has to do with the idea that we needed some kind of football czar to oversee the HC and GM. Many here clamored for someone like that, and Coughlin's name was prominently mentioned. The Jags went that direction with Coughlin, and it has backfired big time. Having the talent to oversee an organization and make solid planning decisions as the overall executive in charge is a different job than the HC position. Coughlin was a very good HC. But in this position it's not working out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s kind of like a slap fight between two old men with dementia over pudding and purée. Again, cut back on the drinking. I am not bitter in the slightest about them beating us last year. Was a very good defensive game and we came up short. We made the playoffs after a 17 year drought, and they did a fine job getting to the divisional finals. Let's just try to focus on the actual topic. My point is this: they imploded this year, despite having the football czar many wanted in Coughlin. Coughlin made a big mistake in not addressing his QB situation, and their tem is about to land in a difficult cap position. So they have a czar, a GM, and a HC in Marrone, but imploded. The point is this: you don't need that kind of a structure. You need a good GM and HC that work together to put a team together. A "czar" to oversee them to me just adds anther unnecessary management layer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually am more annoyed when the hands in face rule is not enforced on offensive blockers as it is actually written. On a runner, especially the power runner variety, tacklers should know they have to take a good angle to get them low, or they will likely be immortalized as the brunt of an internet meme.

I just find it funny that it's never called on a runner, but always called on the defender, whats the difference? Another visiting team losing on Thursday night this year...... So one coach, a year after his team makes the playoffs, with a team built defence first, with an offence that's built as a run first offence, and mismanaged the QB position and on the 2nd OC, deserves to be fired cause his team regressed in the 2nd year?
