he’s the dumbass that hired Shack Harris and compounded that mistake by keeping him for 6 years. For 6 years he was Rip Van Winkle and slept thru the destruction of a franchise by a GM who had no clue.

I don’t know what the expectations are for most fans but they are mostly unrealistic. Whether we play good and win or play horrible and lose, it’s all part of growing as a team. Sure we have players that aren’t performing well but you can’t completely overhaul a roster in 1 year. We are starting several rookies so things like this are going to happen. We don’t have enough good players yet to overcome the mistakes being made. It’s the nature of the NFL now. Didn’t the Eagles, who just looked great beating the Giants, lose to the Raiders the previous week? I think the Jags are about an 8-8 team and thats if they grow and stick together as a team. The Jets, Ravens, Steelers, and several other teams have lost games that they should have won this year.

I can’t deal with “pros” that can’t tackle. Its time for Reggie Nelson to be the next Shack #1 pick to be cut and don’t tell me Harvey is a beast because he’ll never live up to the holdout and all those draft picks.

Around game two or so I posted a comment to this blog calling for the firing of Jack Del Rio. Most (if not all) the feedback I received from readers was that Jack was the right man for the job and blah, blah, blah, and so on and so forth. Well, when I read this article it makes me chuckle to the point I feel pain in my sides because it is clearly apparent and has been for quite some time that JDR is not the man for the job.

Look at what he’s accomplished since he arrived. 1. He’s won one playoff game his entire seven years as the head coach. 2. He’s fired closed to ten coordinators during his tenure. 3. He claims to be involved in defensive coaching this year and coincidentally the defense is the worst its been in several years. Hmmm……so I have to ask myself….why keep this guy around? What has he done for this franchise? Seriously, people!

You guys know just as well as I do if a QB were to only throw one touchdown pass an entire season and that team had a losing record because of his play he would be benched immediately. So what’s stopping Wayne from firing Jack? Oh, i know, it’s all the money he’ll have to pay him if he sends him packing. I actually think it’ll be money well spent.

I too am sick of the same old, lame ass press conferences from Jack, “Well, this was not our best effort” or his classic line, “We will get better”. Get the hell outta here with that bulls%$t, Jack! The Jaguars will never get better under Jack Del Rio. I appreciate the one playoff appearance in seven freakin’ wasteful years, Jack, but I can’t wait to see your ass unemployed.

What’s Bill Cowher up to these days?

Sick talent? Are we watching the same Jaguars? If we had sick talent we’d be tackling and scoring at will. Jack’s not to blame for that. We have sick potential, and we’ll get there, we’re headed in the right direction. Remember, Jack is a young coach. He’s gonna improve just as the team will. Maybe if we had an old coach who was stuck in his ways I would be more inclined to agree with you.

This team was completely overhauled, what do you expect? This is rebuilding, and considering that, I’m very happy with where the Jags are at. To me the only disappointment so far this year has been the Seahawks game. But I suppose we should blow up the whole thing half way through the first rebuilding season, that makes total sense.

I’m really disappointed, and this is why I rarely comment here anymore. I used you think Jags fans on this site were smarter than this. It’s rebuilding. And it’s players not plays.

This team has shit (for) talent. MJD on offense. Daryl Smith on defense. Scobee on special teams. Thats it.
You can have your choice of Cowher, Holgren, Gruden, Shanahan and fact is none of them would win with this sorry bunch. Shack Harris destroyed this franchise with 6 years of drafting crap and Wayne Weaver did nothing.

stuff! You guys sound like George W. Bush with that “stay the course” horse shit! And who was the idiot that said Jack was a young coach? Jack might be 46 years old but I got a 32 year old first-year coach in Denver that would out-coach his ass in a minute. No matter how much you try and rationalize this in your head, Jack has not done anything since he’s been in Jacksonville. One playoff win and nothing else. And you want to preach patience? Dude, it’s been seven damn years!! How much more patient should we be?

Gruden or Shanahan should be our next coach. I know just as well as you do that Gruden couldn’t coach a Pop Warner team to a championship and Shanahan benefited from having Elway and Terrell Davis those years he won the Super Bowl. If you noticed, after those two left he had nothing. I have never been impressed with Shanahan.

Holmgren would seem to be the type of coach this team needs but i’m not sure if he can actually get it done. I like Mike’s no-nonsense approach to coaching.

If I had to choose one guy to pursue aggressively it would be Cowher. I think he demands excellence and I love his coaching style (he actually gets upset when his team isn’t playing up to their potential). Cowher certainly wouldn’t put up with poor tackling, dropped passes, and weak ass QB play. Speaking of the QB, I actually think Garrard would be a decent QB if he actually had time to throw the ball. I will concede he waits sometimes too long to get it out of his hands, but I think he needs a coach to actually get in his face about it. That’s what coaching is…..teaching technique over and over again until you get it right.

As for Jack outcoaching Fisher in the first Titain-Jags game, I don’t think so. Kerry Collins and the boys lost that game for them. They too have issues with tackling, dropped passes, terrible run-defense, and horrific pass-defense. The Titans made alot of huge mistakes in that game and the Jags simply took advantage of them.

So tell me this…what happened at Seattle? You had a QB who was coming off an injury which was very noticeable in the game and he murdered us 41-0! Where was all that coaching then? What happened in the Arizona game? Kurt Warner could have eaten a sandwich back there in the pocket he had so much time to throw the ball. Oh yeah, they spanked that ass too! And the Rams? The Rams haven’t won shit since they had Kurt Warner and what did we do? It took us overtime to put them away.

My point is this….the coach has to have the team ready to play every week. If a team plays bad one week but plays really good for four weeks then I would say they just had a bad game. But when you have a team that plays HORRIBLE every other week, that right there is just bad coaching. Jack knows it, you know it, and every other knucklehead that posts here knows it. I want consistency at the coaching position too. I think it’s better for the team. But Jack has proven that he cannot get it down. Plain and simple.
