Since the Jaguars came into the league, both the Jags and Jets have been to 3 AFC title games and no SuperBowls. The Jags do have a more winnable division.

Chargers are on the precipice of being a playoff team. They lost the majority of their games by less than 4 points with most outcomes coming in the last minute. And that’s with a rookie QB at the helm. Herbert in his 2nd year, a new HC, sky’s the limit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodGreen Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 The Jags are rolling the red carpet. Even more dramatic than the Raiders/Gruden second marriage.I like the tempered approach. Can’t come off as desperate, or you will get taken advantage of and exposed. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really didn’t want another DC as HC but what’s the alternative? Another OC? Saleh has a no nonsense look about him. He doesn’t have a comical looney toons look like Rex, not a psycho/Anthony Perkins look like Gase, not a lost in the wilderness look like Bowles. 6th ranked defense in 2020 despite many of injuries. ..................................................................... We shouldn't be surprised to see defensive coordinator Robert Saleh receive a healthy amount of head-coaching interviews after the season his group has put together. Despite losing multiple key defenders, San Francisco still ranks sixth in yards per game, ninth in rushing yards per game and 10th in passing yards per game. The 49ers aren't getting home as much as they did in 2019 (20th in sacks per pass attempt), but they're still playing cohesively on key downs, ranking eighth in third-down percentage and 10th in red-zone percentage. After losing Jimmy Garoppolo and George Kittle to injuries, Saleh's bunch has helped maintain the 49ers' competitiveness. San Francisco doesn't rank extremely high in most Next Gen metrics, yet it is still allowing an opposing passer rating below 95. Combining that with the aforementioned yardage averages, we're seeing a unit that isn't doing anything especially great, but is playing consistent, effective defense.

Drafted Bortles, extended him for some unbeknownst reason after his miracle AFCCG run in 2017 even though they knew he was trash, then gave Foles $30 million to win 1 game for the franchise. Yikes.

Yup. Although he did well with other positions and did find Minshew in the 6th. But you're right. Whiffing on the two big money QBs did him in.

Fantasy Island Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 3 hours ago, Bronx said: NFL coaching searches: Why Urban Meyer, Jaguars hold key to Jets landing top candidate 49ers’ Robert Saleh, Titans’ Arthur Smith Now that the Jets have conducted two in-person, follow-up interviews with top head coaching candidates, you might have big question: What’s the holdup here? The Jets on Wednesday sat down with 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh and Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. Both had previously been interviewed via video chat. Both are in-demand candidates. There are seven NFL head coaching openings. (And there have been zero hires made so far in this head coach hiring cycle.) Jaguars hold key to Jets landing top candidate. Every coach-needy team except the Texans has pursued Saleh. All seven have pursued Smith. This week, Smith is doing an initial interview with the Eagles, and a follow-up with the Falcons, Jets, and Lions. Saleh and Smith can be hired immediately, since neither is in the playoffs. Here’s where the Jaguars and Urban Meyer come in, as the likely roadblocks in this process — for the Jets and other coach-needy teams. Meyer is clearly the Jaguars’ top choice to be their next head coach, and to mold quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the presumptive top pick in this year’s draft. Meyer is still considering what he wants to do — take the job or stay out of coaching. If he says yes, that’s one job off the board, and the others can be filled. But if he says no, a desirable job is suddenly available. So why would a hot candidate like Saleh or Smith jump at the chance to take a less-desirable job, like the Jets, when he can wait out the Meyer situation and see if the Jaguars are open? Hope they have a crash cart ready for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
