JDR on Hot Seat

by OGN on Jul 15, 2009 10:41 AM EDT

I wanted to pass along an FYI to the BCC Nation. The NFL Network had an editorial type piece (Prime Time Deon Sanders pontificating) that Jack Del Rio is one of the coaches on the proverbial hot seat this seasn. The teams inconsistency was touted as a most probable reason. Given that this specific topic was discussed on this site nearly a month ago, I thought those that do not get NFL Network might be interested. Some on this site (meself included) have begun to question JDR. When you consider the up and down nature of this franchise over the past 5 years and especially the dismal divisional record, it would seem that a national media spotlight is beginning tp shine on the Jags coaching staff.

JDR didn't help himself with last season

It’s very simple for him, improve or pack your bags at the end of the year

I'm don't want him to go yet, butt...

Mike Shanahan and Bill Cowher are available. Last time I checked they were pretty successful and consistent to boot. However, I’m not calling for JDR head. I think 2 more years and we’ll go from there. Gene is giving him the talent that he needs to succeed.

I like Shanahan

He was a good coach who had sometimes a lacking run defense and was brilliant when it came to special temas or Rbs. He could definately fit here, since we are a run first mentality kind of team.

JDR is going to go one day

probably not in the near future. Also some of the coaches out there are Bill Cowher, Mike Holmgren is there, but he might be retired. Thats just two from the top of my head.

JDR

Needs to be given some more time. He didn’t help himself or the fanbase after last season… but this team looks like it could be a serious contender with a few more solid drafts, and the most important thing for the younger guys could be stability in both coaches and schemes, including staff, philosophies, and all general offensive and defensive goals.

I now conclude my huge run on sentence.

JDR-Cheaper to HIM

I saw the NFL Network, Total Access comment and at the end Dukes reminded everyone that JDR has 3 years left on his contract and Weaver would still have to pay his contract if he were released. Thats why JDR is NOT going anywhere for at least 3 years. I think that gives him (JDR) enough time to turn things around. GO JAGS!
